In this episode of the Fly Culture podcast, I speak with Jo Stephenson, an experienced angler and fly tyer. 

We discuss Jo's appearance at the recent Game Fair, the current state of fly fishing, and her transition from lure fishing to fly fishing. 

Jo shares her favourite techniques for pike fishing and talks about her passion for fly tying and tells me about her experiences at the British Fly Fishing Fair. 

We talk about her time as a fishing lodge manager in Norway, and her participation in the Big Fish TV program. She also talks about the importance of fishing as a form of relaxation and escape, and her desire to pursue coaching and guiding in the future. 

This was a great insight into someone who loves fishing and promotes it in a friendly, positive way.
