Show Notes with Adamsbuilt Fishing

Hendrix Outdoors was the company that Mont worked for initially and then transitioned into his own company.

Wagon Jobbers was a new word for me.  This is where they would deliver products to your doorstep and not via Amazon.

John Gierach was on the podcast and noted why he became a trout bum which was similar to why Mont got into the business.

Jay Fair was a mentor for Mont.  I was able to track down a random Jay Fair video on trolling flies. 

Dennis with Wild Fish Wild Places is the guy who does the marketing for Adamsbuilt.

The Truckee Wader and the lightweight Walker River Wader are two goto wader products for Mont and Adamsbuilt.

You can reach Mont at Adamsbuilt Fishing.
