  • Capt. Steve Huff has been a full time fishing guide for nearly fifty two years. He is the God of guides - the chosen one. The man who sets the standard for other fishing guides. The hardest working guy in the room or on the water. Steve was the first fly fishing skiff guide to be inducted into the IGFA Hall of Fame in 2010. He has invented and innovated countless tools and contraptions to improve his effectiveness as a guide. From de-hookers to bow platforms, knots to fly stretchers - Steve’s creative imagination and eagerness to push the envelope makes him the legend he is. Steve has passed his relentless drive and wisdom down to his two sons, Dustin and Chad, whom have become scary good guides in their own right. Steve currently lives in Everglades City, Florida with his wonderful wife, Patty.
    We were honored that Steve invited us over to his man cave to talk everything fishing. We chat about fishing Key West in the 70’s, early fly designs, and inheriting his work ethic from his mother.

    Man, Steve needs a part 2. I bet you haven't even brushed the surface of the history.

    Stick. I pulled that move on the only guided trip I have ever been on. We both laughed when it blew up as the skiff got closer. I now cast at every "stick" I see.
    I could listen to these stories all day. Incredibly talented and incredibly humble.
    Thanks for bringing this to us.

    I think most people are sad for these days to be gone, me, I can not get enough of this information. I am going to listen to every one of your episodes. There is so much to learn from them. I only wish I got this bug 40 years ago. I turn 60 this year I have a ton of time to make up.

    Now this is my kind of guy. Just listening to him speak the way he does, it’s like I’m surrounded but my Marine Corps brothers.
    With that, I think I’ll be “Jerk’n my Merkin” later today. 👍

    Great podcast , i think its Great that your recording these interviews with the legends of our sport , hearing fishing stories from the past is so cool , the thought of being dragged through the water by a Tarpon Blows my mind , I have seen how the sharks home in on Tarpon , Wow , and to be hooked to a poon for that amount of time , just Incredible .
