The Guide Post – Details, episodes & analysis

In this special episode of the The Guide post podcast, we host a "Striped Bass AMA" to answer pressing questions from our community about the state of Atlantic striped bass. With critical management decisions on the horizon and recent news of a historic spawning event, this episode dives deep into the biology, management, and future of one of the most iconic fish on the East Coast. We address a wide range of questions from anglers and conservationists, offering insights into the science, past research, and the complex challenges of managing the coastwide striped bass fishery.

In this episode of the Guide Post Podcast, hosts Will Poston and Blane Chocklett are joined by guest Tim Adams, founder of Oxbow Brewing Company. The discussion primarily focuses on Tim’s creation of the "All Species" fishing tournament in Maine, its unique format, and the broader community it fosters.

Tim shares his background, starting Oxbow Brewing 13 years ago, and how he’s blended his passion for fishing with his brewing business. The All Species tournament embraces Maine’s rich biodiversity, with participants targeting various fish species across saltwater and freshwater ecosystems. The winner is determined by the number of species caught. Tim highlights how this tournament supports local anglers and raises awareness for conservation efforts, especially for striped bass, with the backing of brands like Yeti, Simms and Costa.

In this episode of Shop Talk, the crew sits down to share absurd guide tales and show love to underappreciated species like Jack Crevalle. The Shop Talk series provides access to the lighter side of the Association - less science and policy, more fish stories and healthy laughs.

Presented by Costa Sunglasses

In anticipation of our upcoming False Albacore tagging campaign this fall in collaboration with the Anderson Cabot Center for Ocean Life at NEAQ, we’re inviting some of the best captains on the east coast to swing by The Guide Post and talk about the infamous “funny fish”.

The first episode in the False Albacore series features none other than the salty personality Capt. Mike Platt of Light Bite Charters in Connecticut. Mike provides an update on the status of fisheries in his region before taking a head-first deep dive into everything albies - from fishing tips, boat positioning, species appreciation, lure choice and the albacore angling culture as a whole.

If your dreams are haunted by little footballs stampeding the coast, you won’t want to miss this one. Throw #TheGuidePost Podcast in your headphones as you toast to a weekend of tight lines.
