Flavor on the Fly: An Exciting New Series from Flylords Exploring the Intersection of Fly-Fishing, Food, and Community

Published

on

BASALT, Colo. /PRNewswire/ — Flylords is thrilled to announce that all episodes of “Flavor on the Fly,” an original series dedicated to exploring the confluence of fly-fishing, food, and community, are live now! Traditionally, the relationship between fishing and food has been viewed through a narrow lens of “Catch and Keep.” However, this series dives much deeper, revealing the intricate symbiosis between the two in an endless hunt for inspiration.

Fly-Fishing

Hosted by professional chef Ranga Perera, “Flavor on the Fly” highlights the complexities of elements present in both food and fishing, such as seasonality and location. This 3-episode mini-season took viewers on a journey far from Montana, as Ranga ventured into parts of the U.S. he had never explored before. Traveling through VermontMaine, and New York, Ranga met with local anglers, chefs, purveyors, and unique characters from all walks of life, gaining authentic perspectives into these one-of-a-kind places.

Meet Ranga Perera

Ranga Perera, born in Sri Lanka, grew up surrounded by the vibrant flavors and recipes of his family and culture. Moving to California at a young age, he further developed his love for cooking. With inherent culinary talent but no formal training, Italian chef and restaurant owner Guiseppe Dossi recognized Ranga’s potential and took him under his wing, igniting Ranga’s passion for cooking. Shortly after, Ranga moved to Montana, where he honed his culinary skills and discovered his love for fly fishing after catching his first cutthroat on the fly.

Since then, Ranga has continued to merge his love of fly fishing and food in innovative ways. Balancing local and exotic ingredients, Perera is a master of flavor, drawing inspiration from the places he visits, the people he meets, and the environments he immerses himself in. “Flavor on the Fly” is the culmination of Ranga’s passions, exploring the Northeast through a unique lens and incorporating each fishery seamlessly into meals centered around community and shared experiences.

Join us as we embark on this unique adventure, celebrating the intersection of fly-fishing, food, and community with Ranga Perera. You can now watch all episodes of “Flavor on the Fly” and experience the Northeast like never before.

Teremana Tequila and Wingstop team up for Fans of Flavor: wing-and-margarita pairings, a pairing generator, and a sweepstakes through Feb. 8.

Teremana® The People’s Margarita and Wingstop Original Hot Wings

Teremana® Tequila Partners With Wingstop to Celebrate Fans of Flavor This Postseason

Teremana® Tequila is bringing the good energy to game day. In a new “Fans of Flavor” partnership announced Jan. 9, 2026, the premium tequila brand founded by Dwayne Johnson is teaming up with Wingstop—the global wing brand known for fresh, made-to-order chicken wings, bold flavors, and its iconic housemade ranch—to help fans turn watch parties into full-on flavor celebrations. The idea is simple: rival teams may split the room, but wings and margaritas are universal.

Wings + Margaritas: A Game Day Pairing Worth Building Around

From now through Feb. 8, fans can explore wing-and-cocktail combinations using the new Fans of Flavor pairing generator, built to match Wingstop’s signature flavors with Teremana margarita recipes. It’s a fun way to level up the table—where the food, drinks, and people become the main event. Here are a few standout pairings highlighted in the launch:
  • Wingstop Original Hot wings + Teremana® The People’s Margarita for a tropical twist on a classic heat-forward flavor
  • Wingstop Spicy Korean Q wings + Teremana® Spicy Margarita for heat that builds and keeps the party going
  • Wingstop Garlic Parmesan wings + Teremana® Strawberry Margarita for a fresh, fruity contrast against savory richness

Sweepstakes: Win the Ultimate Game Day Flavor Fest

The partnership also includes a nationwide sweepstakes offering fans a shot at a seriously upgraded watch party. One grand prize winner will receive the Ultimate Game Day Flavor Fest, featuring:
  • Wingstop gift cards
  • Game day drink funds
  • A 75″ TV
  • Support for a private bartender and party essentials
Plus, 60 additional winners will each receive Teremana drink cash prizes and a Wingstop gift card—an extra nod to the 60th anniversary of football’s biggest game. Official rules and prize values are available at TeremanaFansofFlavor.com.

“Mana” Meets Flavor: The Point of the Partnership

At its core, this collaboration is built around shared moments—bold taste, good company, and the kind of food-and-drink spread that makes people linger a little longer. Teremana’s brand philosophy centers on Mana—good energy that brings people together—and the pairing concept fits naturally into how fans already celebrate postseason football. “Wingstop has always delivered on bold flavor, and that spirit shows up naturally in how people enjoy Teremana on game day,” said Richard Black, CEO of Teremana® Tequila. “The best game day moments don’t happen by accident, they come from good energy, great flavor, and the people you share them with.”

Mix a Little Luck into Your Big Game Menu

(Family Features) Picture this: Your team is down three points, but the taste of victory is just one field goal away. Sometimes, all you need is a little luck and a whole lot of guac. After all, an estimated 250 million pounds of avocados are consumed during the Big Game each year, according to Hass Avocado Board Volume Data. That’s enough to fill 30 million football helmets with guac – but filling your belly instead is a win-win for good luck and great flavor. Dip into good fortune this football season with help from Avocado From Mexico’s Guac Guru, Rob Riggle, whose visionary Good Luck Guac recipe is ready to share just in time for the Big Game. Whether you’re in it for the football, the commercials or the snacks, this recipe can score major points with your entire crew. 17749 detail embed1Crafted for fans of every team, this bold, golden twist on a favorite football snack is infused with ingredients associated with good luck – edible gold flakes and pomegranate seeds – to get you through the most nail-biting moments of the game. The star ingredient is fresh, high-quality Avocados From Mexico that offer good taste, good nutrition, and good times. Beyond delicious dips, chips and lots of fun, hosting a watch party can also be a lot of work. Make sure your hosting duties don’t create interference or put you on the sidelines with these tips: Get a jumpstart on party prep. The day before the game, tidy up your space and prepare as much of the food as you can. For dishes best served fresh – like guac – take care of the ingredient prep, like chopping veggies. Create comfortable seating and viewing areas. For a watch party, you’ll want plenty of room for guests to sit comfortably where they can see the screen and have easy access to the guac. If there’s not enough space in the living room to fit everyone, consider bringing a TV to the kitchen so people can snack and watch at the same time. Know your guests. From non-alcoholic beverage options to additional entertainment like board games and kid-friendly activities, become a next-level party host by providing a setup tailored to your guests’ needs. One thing almost everyonecan agree on: Guac made with Avocados From Mexico can be the star of nearly any party’s snacking lineup.
