In the most current episode of the Orvis podcast, Tom Rosenbauer took a seat with Mike Tayloe to discuss getting ready for medical emergency situations when out fly fishing. Tayloe is an emergency medical technician, fishing guide, and wilderness medication fitness instructor, so he has a wealth of experience to draw from. In addition to his experience, Tayloe likewise trained Orvis-endorsed guides and lodges. He’s got a firm grasp not just on the material, however discussing it in such a way that is simple to find out.
This is the sort of details you’ll be pleased to have, however hope never ever to utilize it. Last fall, I was out fishing with a pal when I took a nasty fall. I slipped and fell headfirst about 10 feet down a high riverbank, landing hard on my hip and almost breaking my fishing pole. Naturally, the very first thing I looked at was the rod (it made it through) and I got away with a couple of small cuts and one deep swelling. If I ‘d fallen a bit more, or simply to the right, there’s a great chance I might’ve broken an arm. That experience just highlighted the requirement for the sort of details Tayloe shares in this podcast.
