Trout Wrangler Podcast Season 2. Ep. 46: Striper Runs, Art, and Stories with Joel Stoehr

On today's episode of the Trout Wrangler Podcast, I'm joined by Joel Stoehr—an artist, teacher, and passionate striper fisherman. We start with Joel's fishing journey and how stripers became a core part of his life on the water. From his love for fly fishing to what keeps him chasing these powerful fish, Joel shares what makes the striper game so special. We also dive into Joel's artistic background—how painting and sculpture shaped his path before transitioning into teaching and design. He explains how he balances art, education, and administration while still keeping an active creative practice. Joel talks about his favorite piece of artwork, his unexpected feature in a David Goggins book, and even shares his perspective as a witness to the infamous "Manhole Cover Zyn" story with Javi and Marsh Bum. Of course, we wrap up with Joel's picks for the Trout Tunes Playlist and final plugs. 🎣 This episode is brought to you by Riversmith.
