Episode 170 - Jamie Howard ( Howard Films)

Jamie Howard, a man who shaped a genre of Fly-fishing films, set a mood, taught us stuff and showed us things that those who may not ever get to fish for Tarpon, Striper or Bonefish will never see. Still to this day an unmatched filmmaker as far as quality of fly-fishing footage and story telling, Jamie is best known for his iconic flyfishing movies, Chasing Silver, Location X and Andy's Return films. Recently Jamie underwent a mammoth task of documenting the migratory run of Striped Bass in his latest film "Running The Coast" that Jamie describes as his Magnum Opus. Featuring interviews with Bob Popovic, Lefty Kreh and Dave Skok to name a few as well as  incredible footage of Stripe eating crab flies and wild blitzes.  We chat to Jamie about  his personal fishing, the fisherman he films, the birth of the location X concept, how Andy Mill got caught up in Chasing Silver, and the sheer epicenes of how Running The Coast was made as some of the highlights. For this of you who have never seen any of Jamie's work... let these two hard arsed pragmatic fisherman tell you that Jamie makes films for those that are not easily impressed... You would have to be made of stone not to want to sell everything and fish forever after watching these films.
