Ep 143: Island Stories: Mullet, Redfish, and Oatmeal Cream Pies

In this action-packed episode of The Storied Outdoors, Brad and Bryan reunite with some unforgettable past guests for an adventure that will go down in the record books. Joining them are Captain Blake Walters, aka the Fairhope Fly Guy, along with Dr. Hank Hershey and Dr. Hugh Cheek, as they relive a truly epic day of fly fishing for redfish.

From poling skiffs through glassy marsh waters to heart-pounding moments of fish on (and fish lost), this episode captures the thrill, camaraderie, and storytelling that make time on the water so special. We dive into Bryan’s milestone moment—landing his very first saltwater fish on the fly—along with the inevitable tales of the ones that got away.

With plenty of laughs, unforgettable memories, and a celebration of the great outdoors, this is one conversation you won’t want to miss. Whether you’re a seasoned angler or just love a good fishing tale, grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy the ride!
