Episode 104: Mitch Howell - The Gentleman
Mitch Howell has had a very interesting life on and off the water. At a young age, Howell’s family was failing him so his grandparents took the helm and raised him. His world was coming at him in different directions very quickly. He would eventually find profound joy and success in fishing. It was one of our sport’s great heroes, Flip Pallot, who would be Mitch’s greatest influence and mentor years later.
We have heard numerous stories on this podcast how fishing has saved many of our guests lives, and here, Mitch will document a similar story stemming from a different kind of carnage. Mitch found invigoration with fishing and he eventually carved his way to the podium many of the Florida Keys most prominent tournaments. And, too, Mitch had incredible dexterity. He could do damage with a fly rod as well as a spinning rod or bait caster. Inshore or offshore, he could do it all!
Today, we talk about how tackle shops were the hang out spots of the past, fishing with Mark Krowka, Flip Pallot, & Billy Pate, and how there was no challenge quite like the big bonefish of Islamorada. Thanks for coming on, Mitch!
