- Country Kid From Chicago: Spence Petros In his own Words Radio Podcast (Episode 19)Don’t try to tell Spence Petros that growing up in the city will prevent you from becoming an angler and hunter. He was raised in and around Chicago, one of the largest cities in America, and went on to become an influential figure, as managing editor of Fishing Facts magazine, in what we all think of as the modern fishing revolution.To a generation of anglers, he was (and remains) an authoritative and clear voice explaining a long list of exciting developments as they were fresh out of the best minds in the sport. In 1989, he was inducted into the National Fresh Water Fishing Hall of Fame for his body of work.Since then, he has added to it considerably.All that, while growing up in and among urban sprawl in all directions.How he accomplished this is an inspiring story right for today’s American crossroads, where too many suffer from nature-deficit disorder. It’s doubly impressive given the context of the times, fishing-wise, when the only route between what we didn’t know and the next discovery was time on the water and an indomitable spirit of observation and creativity.His byline carries well-deserved weight, and, at age 75, he can still cast and retrieve the biggest muskie baits all day, every day, for two weeks at a crack. He’s been called the shortest distance between you and a brutal assessment of your fishing skills, and here we go, with Spence Petros, in his own words…Subscribe on iTunes!(click “Viewin iTunes” then click “Subscribe”)Listen on Stitcher!Many newer vehicles have Stitcher available–listen on your car radioImportant LinksSpence Petros website & guide serviceShimano Caenan baitcasting reels0 min

- Aw Shucks Bass Assassin: Denny Brauer In his own Words Radio Podcast (Episode 17)Outwardly placid as a glass-calm lake, you would think it might take five gallons of gas to light a competitive fire around Denny Brauer, but on the inside burns a methodical will both long and strong, complemented by a sense for the right time to take calculated risks, no matter how life-changing they might be. He just seems to know what to do, whether testing the waters of tournament fishing, moving south to put himself in the thick of it, or closing out victories against the rest of the best in the world.Over the course of a distinguished career, Brauer has weighed in nearly 9,000 pounds of fish in B.A.S.S. competition, finishing in the top 10 an impressive 79 times, winning 17, including the 1998 Bassmaster Classic.A few years ago, a virus attacked him, taking half the capacity of his heart and lungs. But his love of fishing and life keep him moving right along, as he still fishes a few tournaments, represents his loyal sponsors, and continues to help develop products and teach us how to catch more fish.What a nice guy, what an awesome tournament angler, and we are delighted and honored to present Denny Brauer, in his own words…Subscribe on iTunes!(click “Viewin iTunes” then click “Subscribe”)Listen on Stitcher!Many newer vehicles have Stitcher available–listen on your car radioImportant LinksDenny Brauer’s Educational Flippin’/Pitchin’ VideosDenny Brauer on Facebook33 min

- Kevin VanDam, In his own Words: Interview Podcast #15Today, we come to a deeper understanding of how a young kid who grew up in a small Michigan town came to dominate the hyper-competitive world of big-time bass tournaments, in our conversation with Kevin VanDam.Few athletes in any sport rise to the point where their initials speak for themselves, but ‘KVD,’ as he is known, has earned that distinction. Kevin VanDam is both a brand and a man, and we get to know the heart behind the enterprise in a conversation that starts in the January, 2016 issue of MidWest Outdoors magazine.When we left off in the magazine, Kevin was telling us about the point in his young tournament career when he felt ready to make the leap and start fishing full-time for a living. That’s the point at which we pick the story up, and hear his own voice describe the path that eventually took him to the very top of this demanding and competitive sport.Here we go, with Kevin VanDam… in his own words.Subscribe on iTunes!(click “Viewin iTunes” then click “Subscribe”)Listen on Stitcher!Many newer vehicles have Stitcher available–listen on your car radioImportant LinksKevin VanDam websiteVisit Crane Lake, Minnesota47 min
