In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Jesse Males from Central Florida. Jesse grew up with a love of fly fishing, and decided to build his future in the fly fishing community after college. He left his promising career and spent years learning to fly fish his home waters, while simultaneously refining his fly tying, photography, and videography skills.
When Jesse moved his family to Costa Rica, there was no turning back. His saltwater fly tying and guide business took off, and he pushed his film making to award winning new levels.
We discuss fly fishing the salt water fisheries of Central Florida, the art and function of tying saltwater flies, and scrapping “plan B” to chase your dreams.
