Asking Questions, Knowing Your Why’s, and Urban Fly Fishing with Pablo Signori (Ep. 219)

In this episode we WadeOutThere with Pablo Signori, from Chicago, Illinois. Pablo found fly fishing on a friends bachelor party to the outdoors and immediately became obsessed with learning more about the sport, while fishing the lakes in the cities he lived in. During the COVID pandemic, Pablo moved back to Los Angeles, continuing to fly fish, and eventually decided to combine his skillset in music production with his passion for fly fishing by creating a fly fishing podcast. Pablo’s podcast, The Newb and the Knower, is a methodical and educational approach to learning the various aspects of fly fishing, during which Pablo has conversations with fly fisherman, author, and competitor Lance Egan. Pablo is also a fly fishing film maker who recently started the North American Fly Fishing Outfitter, Criollo Camp Outfitters. Pablos’s outfitter emphasizes local culture and sustainability, and includes trips to Mexico and Argentina, among other destinations. We discuss ideas about how to approach learning and studying fly fishing, the importance of knowing your “why’s on the water” and techniques and stories around urban fly fishing.
