When the topwater action heats up, the mics blow out from shear excitement. Fishing team catches so many fish that they forget who catches the most sunfish and largemouth bass. Also of note, famed film auteur Tommy Wiseau makes an appearance.

Matthew meanwhile attempts to spear the invasive plecostomus, which is almost an act of charity when you think about it. Afterward, fishing team eats burgers and manske rolls at college grill joint Gil's.

Our heroes return to the Guadalupe River to target the giant trout which reside there. Although fish are caught, the effort pretty much drives Matthew and Jamey to insanity. Will this be the last fishing trip to The Guad? Only future podcasts will tell!
