25. What is Lead Free Fishing? with John King

In episode 25 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, we are discussing lead-free fishing.

I’ve done a few fishing-specific episodes, mostly fly fishing, and I was excited to host an epsiode that focuses on lead-free fishing.

Since I am the furthest thing from an angler, I was glad when John King of Glasswater angling reached out to help guide the conversation.

John King who with his wife Kathy founded Glasswater Angling Lead Free Fishing. John is a tackle designer currently focussing on providing alternatives to lead fishing lures and weights. John has a public persona known as “Crappie Hippie”, describing himself as “a tree hugging redneck from eastern Kansas”. Crappie Hippie can be found with Tim “Tackle Box Bete” and Lucy The Lurematic Supercomputer on the Lure Love Podcast. Their YouTube channel is Glasswater Angling, Lure Love, Crappie Hippie where they post the pod and Crappie Hippie posts videos on lead free jig tying. John is here today to help us understand more about the environmental impact of fishing and how we can strive toward “a better outdoors”™ John’s co-host Lucy will also join us with some supporting facts.
