About this episode

The episode provides an inside look at the production of Angling Adventures, discussing the challenges and successes of filming fishing episodes.

Step behind the scenes of the On The Water Podcast as Alex Blackwell and Liam O’Neill recap the latest season of Angling Adventures —from the highs of epic fishing days to the reality of tough conditions, missed shots, and the grind of production. With the full season now wrapped and spring right around the corner, the guys break down what really goes into making each episode—from 100+ hours of editing to battling weather, waves, and unpredictable fish. They also share stories from the water, including: A quick lunch break that turned into a bass mission Favorite shoots like Block Island and the Nauset surf The challenge (and reward) of filming bluefin tuna— even when you don’t land one What it’s like protecting thousands of dollars of camera gear in rough offshore conditions Why perseverance is everything when the bite just isn’t there Plus, a shoutout to the team behind the scenes who help bring these stories to life, and a look ahead at what’s coming next as a new fishing season approaches. Whether you’re here for the fishing, filmmaking, or both, this episode gives you a real look at what it takes to create the content you see on screen. Sponsored By: Lambros Insurance…
