Ep 313| Marty Wilson and the Croaker Classic

We sit down with fisherman, conservationist, and marine artist Marty Wilson to talk about the Croaker Classic — a fishing tournament built for families, fun, and Gulf Coast tradition.

We also dive into:

– Marty’s creative journey from T-shirt airbrushing to large-scale murals

– His father’s legacy as an SR-71 pilot and how it inspired his love of the water

– The role of conservation in his art, including DMR’s “Return 'Em Right” program

– What’s new at this year’s Croaker Classic

This episode blends passion, paint, and plenty of saltwater.
