Have you ever wondered what it would be like to get a call from the President of the United States? In this episode of The Science of Fishing, I sit down with Hall of Fame Dallas Cowboys Head Coach Jimmy Johnson, who shares his incredible story of receiving a call from the President after winning the Super Bowl. From his early days of fishing with his father to his rise as a championship-winning coach, Jimmy Johnson takes us on a journey through his life and his unwavering passion for the sport of fishing. Hook into the mindset that led him to prioritize his love for the outdoors over a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and let us know in the comments which story that Jimmy shared was your favorite!
