Oklahoma Outdoors - 5 Things to do Before Summer Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

John is back in the mobile studio this week bringing you a pre summer check list. Before long it is going to get hot and dry, so there are a few things every game manager needs to get done before that time gets here. From tree stands to trail cameras, no matter if you hunt public or private, many of these things will apply to you.

After the to-do list, John also shares some stories from his Sportsmens Empire hog hunt from a few weekends ago. Fellow podcasters came from Michigan, Ohio, and Missouri to hunt hogs in southeast Oklahoma. Many of the guys had never even seen a hog, much less hunted them, so it was a lot of fun for John to take them around and turn them loose on some wild hogs.

[UNCENSORED] - Trout Fishing Gatlinburg, Luke Combs Concert, and Tornado Camping Apr 24, 2023

Show notes

In this week’s [UNCENSORED] podcast by GoWild, we’re talking fishing once again. This time, Jacob took his family and went up into the Smokey Mountains to chase trout. If you’ve never been to Gatlinburg, you are missing out, especially if you have kids. There’s a private fish hatchery with lots of opportunities to catch some nice fish, and right in downtown Gatlinburg. Jacob’s youngest son catches a monster rainbow. The only thing better than catching them yourself is watching kids reel ‘em in. Find out what makes Gatlinburg an underrated fishing destination and learn how Brayden got his start on a fly rod in Gatlinburg as well.

Brayden went to a Luke Combs concert and had a comical run in with some backwards hat-wearing Instagram cowboys … find out how he saved their day. There were several other up-and-coming country music stars on stage and everyone put on a great show. He’s getting ready for turkey hunting season and trying to get some birds on camera.

Arica grabbed some concert tickets for a special Christmas show. She went camping with her family and went looking for morel mushrooms but didn’t find any. Is it really spring camping without a tornado warning? They decided to pack it up and get to safety. They dodged it but there was an F3/F4 tornado that touched down just north of them. We talk about how much camping has changed since the pandemic. She’s getting ready for another camping adventure and is getting help from the guys about which bass baits to bring along.

If you like what you’re hearing, please leave us a rate and review!!

[UNCENSORED] by GoWild kicks off your week with shameful nonsense, inappropriate convictions, and unfiltered tales from the woods, waters and whatevers. [UNCENSORED] is a behind the scenes look at our adventures, failures, wins, embarrassing moments at trade shows, hilarious tales from the warehouse, and a good rant or three about the most recent tyranny from the Dark Lord of the Sith himself.

N.F.C. - Michigan Public Land Apr 21, 2023

Show notes

On this episode of the Nine Finger Chronicles, Dan is joined by Michigan bowhunter Jack Ruthruff to talk about hunting in the mitten. Jack lives in an area in Michigan that has heavier than normal hunting pressure on both private and public land. Jack explains that an excellent buck for that section of the state would be a 115-120" 3 year old buck, and that is his goal every year. In recent years, Jack has lost access to private ground due to owner ship change thus forcing him to focus more on public land. While scouting, before he broke his leg, he located a thick and nasty bedding area that runs parallel with a marsh leading up to a destination food source. Jack believes that with the right access paired with the right time of year, he will able get the job done a target caliber buck.
