On this episode of Fishing the DMV, we sit down with Scott Barrett of the Japanese company Nikko Next Generation Soft Baits.  We had a fascinating conversation with Scott as it’s always interesting to hear the back story on people and how things come to be.  Tune in and hear how Scott brought these baits from Japan to Virginia and began distributing throughout North America.  Smallmouth, largemouth, walleye, and trout anglers need to check out this episode as well as the Nikko product as they can help you catch more fish!

How can you avoid the impending throngs of tourists and enjoy Japan's autumn foliage in Oku-Nikko? How is the Japanese government trying to fight inflation, address the weak yen, and rev up the economy? Aaron and Parker discuss what to expect from the Japanese parliament's extraordinary session and a Tokyo confectionary firm chief who resigned after video footage of him going hog wild in a road rage incident spread online.

On today’s episode we talk about the pro's and con's of 4 popular ned rig worms, we take a peak at the 2023 Bassmaster Elite Series schedule, and a Bassmaster Opens competitor takes a tumble.

Welcome to the Travelman Podcast, today, I thought because I’ve just recently booked eight nights at Courtyard by Marriott Bali Seminyak Resort, for an upcoming family holiday in May, I thought what a great idea to do a podcast episode on the eight best resort and hotel pools that I’ve ever swum at. I reckon that Courtyard by Marriott will sneak in to my top eight one day.

I’ve broken these pools into three categories:

1^st category: Pool Characteristics, how large or small the pool is, what’s the shape, how it does it look?

2^nd category: Best Assets, meaning what’s the best thing about the pool. What makes it unique and so forth.

3^rd category: Downfall, either the pool is perfect or it can work on a few things that may have made it a better experience for me.

So, beginning with number eight and making our way to number one. This is the eighth best resort/hotel pool that I’ve ever swum at.

There are pools that I haven’t listed here, either because I forgot about them or they weren’t that special! And there’s two I’ve got video of on my YouTube channel, Travelman Podcast.
