In Episode #4 of CJ’s Reel Southern Podcast , Chad Johnson catches up with his good buddy and fellow guide Ben Levin for a laid-back, story-filled chat that’ll hit home for anyone who’s spent time on the water. They look back on growing up in the fly fishing scene—youth tournaments, early guiding days, and lessons from the legendary Dave Whitlock (including how to canoe barefoot and cast like a pro).

Before that, Chad gives a quick July fishing report from the White and Norfolk Rivers, talking hatches, hoppers, and his go-to summer flies like the Fat Albert and Psycho Ant. It’s an episode full of laughs, memories, and the kind of fishing wisdom you only get from years on the river.
