In today’s episode, Mark & Jamie are back from the NWTF, and BOY it was a blast (00:20). We’ve seen all kinds of gadgets for hunting, but hearing aids might just be a first (04:31).

With Malcom out this week, we’ve brought on a special guest to talk ALL about fishing the Mississippi River (19:39)! If you’ve never fished on the Mississippi, David’s here to give you a CRASH COURSE on reading the river (24:38). When you go on a trip with David, it’s not always about catching the biggest fish but rather the best experience (31:24)! After years and years of taking folks on trips, these are David’s FAVORITE fishing trips he’s guided (33:59). Everyone thinks the best time to go fishing is after deer season, but that might not be the case (41:55). Fishing has gotten really popular over the past few years, but that means that we HAVE to focus on conservation (45:22)... David’s been tagging fish in Mississippi for a LONG time, but he’s NEVER seen anything quite like this (47:08)! We’ve all seen those HUGE catfish, but how long does it actually take for those fish to get that big (54:27)? Those paylakes might sound like a good idea on paper, but they are a BIG detriment to trophy catfishermen (58:52). This is the BEST BAIT to catch a monster catfish (1:04:05)!

In today’s episode, we’ve had a flood down here at the farm (00:17) – stay tuned for tips on how weather can affect your farm’s soil and crops.

If you're about to board a flight soon, be sure to learn from Mark’s travel mishap to avoid any headaches (30:55). While Mark and Malcom were delayed, the trailer full of bison meat was on its way down to Mississippi (33:40).

Malcom went with Michael on his final youth duck hunt over in Arkabutla, and BOY was it a BLAST (15:08)! Now that deer season is over, it’s time to get ready to do some burning (19:05).

In today’s episode, deer season has FLOWN by this year (00:14). We all know about hunting at home, but how should you act when you’re on someone else’s property? (00:55) If a club has a no-shoot list, here’s what you should be taking down (04:22). Mikey managed to score a killer buck during a recent trip (10:01)! Nobody knows those deer and where they go better than the landowners (16:46). Mark and Jodie took a trip down to Alabama (21:54), and boy, do you learn a lot from visiting someone else’s camp (25:14)! What’s the difference between Mississippi and Alabama’s terrain? (28:47) We think we know what deer like to eat, but it turns out they like to eat everything (31:02). We’ve gotten spoiled by hunting cams and fancy technology, but it wasn’t always like this (33:52). There’s a big difference between a good hunting camp and a bad one—here’s what makes a great hunting camp (35:45). This has got to be the most luxurious hunting club we’ve ever walked into (40:31)!

Mikey and Will went out looking for a couple does but came back with some KILLER bucks (08:05)! It may be our first year using it, but BOY has that standing corn made a HUGE difference (16:10).
