Description

Our guest on this episode of the podcast is a true legend in the offshore fishing community. He has over 60 years of professional fishing experience and has accomplished more in his fishing career than most can dream about... The man has caught thousands of swordfish and tuna and has a GARAGE full of swordfish bills and artwork to prove it.

In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Captain Archie Jost. Archie is an amazing person, and incredible fisherman. He is an expert in all methods of offshore fishing for pelagics including long lining, green stick fishing, deep drop fishing, and buoy fishing. In fact, Archie has been hired by NOAA various times to help train and educate fishermen across the United States. Most recently, Archie was contracted by NOAA to help them with their five year "Deep Water Horizon Fisheries Restoration Project" and trained  U.S Gulf of Mexico commercial fisherman on buoy fishing, greenstick, and deep drop methods.

Archie has fished offshore of the entire East Coast and Gulf of Mexico from Nova Scotia to Florida aboard his own boats, private sportfish programs, and aboard large commercial vessels. He longline swordfished with Linda Greenlaw aboard the "SeaHawk" and was featured on the Discovery Channel's series "Swords".

Archie is a salt of the earth human, a pleasure to talk to, and a great guy to share a few laughs with. The knowledge, experience, and stories that he has are amazing. He's the type of person you want to be around all the time. We learned a ton from him in this short two hour conversation and we hope you do as well.

Stay Tight,
- Bryan and Taylor Sears
