EWA Undercurrent Podcast | Episode 6 - Gian Lawrence - The Black Stonefly

In episode 6 we head to the home of Gian Lawrence, also known as The Blackstone Fly down in Tacoma, WA.

We take a long walk on the beach at Titlow Park, hang out in the kitchen while he prepares a most salubrious meal and go deep on the topics of inclusion in our sport, the similarities between the process of cooking and flyfishing, and a few other things.

About Host | Dave McCoy:

Raised in Eugene, Oregon, my stomping grounds were of legendary namesake; the Deschutes, McKenzie and North Umpqua Rivers among others. I quickly discovered the thrill of having a fish on but was always in awe of my surroundings. My early exposure to water in all forms led me away from fly fishing to pursue a career as a ski race coach but was always mindful of what fly fishing brought to my life. I have a habit of relentlessly pursuing the effort to exceed expectations and create a more inclusive narrative for this sport.
