Scales N TalesEpisode 199 Cast and Crank PodcastI'd like to imagine you guys know Nick pretty well, given that he’s released over 350 podcast episodes—a crazy amount and a testament to how long he’s been producing and releasing shows. We touch on what it's like hosting a show and how, sometimes, it's a thankless job—especially when you're also working a regular 9-to-5 and raising a family, as in Nick's case. It's fun hearing Nick talk about the early days of Cast and Crank and how he found his style within the community of swimbaiters and salt guys.Nick's socials...

He’s out there winching fish from some of the thickest cover I’ve ever seen, all while using baits he designed specifically for those conditions.In this episode, Billy breaks down some of the improvements he’s made to his older baits and dives into the story behind his two newest creations: the Cloak and the Clide.
