Rob met Vic on a tributary of New York's Salmon River in March of 2024. Vic is a retired lawyer. He lives with his wife in her home town not far from some amazing New York angling opportunities.

While Vic strung up his rod he and Rob struck up a conversation and Rob instantly knew this was going to be a future podcast. Part one of the episode is Vic Kopnitsky telling Rob about his life growing up around fishing and the changes to Pennsylvania and Lake Erie since his childhood. Vic covers the extinction of the Blue Pike and the introduction of the Pacific Salmon. He likes to fish for steelhead with dry flies. Part two of the show is about Vic's passion for catching western native trout. Its truly amazing how a brief encounter on a dirt road in the middle of the woods can lead to a fascinating conversation about fly fishing.

Ever hear of a three-bend fish? Curious? Vic will explain.
