In this episode of the Mississippi Outdoors Podcast, host Matt Wyatt sits down with Jeffrey Wood of Swamp Boys Custom Calls. Jeffrey talks about growing up squirrel hunting in Mississippi, training and competing with squirrel dogs, and how he got started building custom game calls.

The conversation includes:

• Early memories of squirrel hunting and family traditions

• Training squirrel dogs and winning a Mississippi state championship

• Demonstrations of turkey calls with glass, slate, titanium, and ceramic surfaces

• Tips on using squirrel calls and how squirrels signal danger in the woods

• Predator hunting stories and why controlling coyotes, foxes, and bobcats matters for deer and turkey

• Favorite squirrel recipes and why it’s called the “chicken of the tree”

Mississippi Outdoors is produced by the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks.
