On this episode of the podcast, I sit down with Lance Clinton—a kayak fishing machine based in Costa Rica. Lance shares how he turned his life around, found purpose in fishing, and became one of the top offshore kayak anglers in the game. We dive into his journey from Louisiana to Costa Rica, the unique inshore and offshore fisheries he calls home, and what it’s like competing on an international stage like the Pan American Championships. Lance also opens up about big fish encounters, kayak safety myths, gear tips, and even the design of innovative jigs and knives. If you’re into fishing, adventure, or stories of turning life around, you’ll want to hear this one.
Apologies on a few sound issues with this one! The mic died just as we began. New one on the way!
