Tackle and Tacos - A Fishing Podcast

If you're keeping score at home, we just went from episode 5 to episode 7. On purpose? No. Episode 6 got all weird while trying to export. Here's a fast recap - it was a podcast about a bass tournament that we didn't win. We are so dang pumped to have Kyle be apart of our first ever video podcast! Kyle is reigning angler of the year Brandon Palaniuk's close friend and videographer. His skills and passion speak for themselves when you watch his videos. It's a perfect mix of art and documentation. He

In this, the 5th episode of Tackle and Tacos, we sit down with Ryan Thirtyacre, owner of Fish 30acre Swimbaits. He stops by for a chat where we cover everything from how he got started in fishing to tacos of course and a DEEP dive into his process and technique for making baits. We are not sponsored by Fish 30acre so we have no reason to say this other than the fact that it's the truth; his lures are the most realistic bait in the history or future of mankind! But for real, go look em up, they're

Ok so no joke, this episode gets a little graphic as we read an article published in Bassmaster Magazine, or it was on the Bassmaster website, something like that. The article was so crazy it was hard to believe and it just got all 3 of us thinking about scary moments we've all had on the water. It just isn't much of a fight when it comes to man VS nature, so be safe, be smart out there. Make sure to check out our first ever cooking video on YouTube where we document the entire process of how to

Our first episode with a guest is a real doozy. We were turned onto Gilltek swim jigs a few years ago and since then Gilltek owner Bryan Schwaller has really refined his craft and improved his jigs. Which is saying something cuz those first ones were great. We would honestly argue that these swim jigs are some of the absolute best out there. They look good, hook up great, and DON'T roll or blowout regardless of how fast you fish em! In this episode with Bryan we dive into the company, his lure

Our first "before and after" episode. The basic idea is that we podcast right before a bass tournament, then right after. We then mash it up into ONE podcast. So you'll hear how we think we're gonna and how we actually did. This particular derby was on Lost Grove Lake in Iowa. Weather was truly awful, and the fishing was better than expected. Every year Jordan and Nate use this tournament as a sort of kick off for the season and every year it's cold and they don't win. Until this year! Or did they

This is our first ever podcast so we figured it made sense to just sorta chat, and ask questions of each other, so you, the listener (if there are any) can get to know us. We talk about our love for tacos, where the name for the podcast came from, how we got into fishing, our boats and a lot more. New episode every Taco Tuesday, but for now, we hope you enjoy this first one. Hop aboard the SS Taco as we journey into podcastville on our maiden voyage! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
