In today's episode of the State of Sportfishing Podcast, host James LaGround talks with Tye Lalik to discuss how Tye got his start in the fishing industry. Starting with bass fishing in ponds while growing up in Virginia, Tye eventually moved on to fishing in the Chesapeake Bay and offshore. After borrowing some 50s and catching a few tunas offshore, nowadays Tye works on various sportfishing boats along with fishing on his family's outboard rig. He details different East Coast fishing scenes and offers insight into how to get a foot in the door in the sportfishing industry while juggling being a full-time student.
