Bob “The Garbage Man” exposes “big fluorocarbon” and proposes regulations that would put more molten lead in the hands of American children.

This week, Orvis’s Tom Rosenbauer and Shawn Combs take a claw hammer to a redfish skull and get drunk with carp envy, we get high on boiled peanuts and try tie to striper flies, trade expensive gear for an inflatable doll, and figure out where Bob Ross hid all the bodies.

This week, Joe joins his best bud, Mark Wizeman, at deer camp to hunt for Queen Elsa and provide muzzleloader support, we don shark socks and chase brown trout with shovels, drain a bottle of bourbon while catching a walleye we don’t want, and rip a rainbow canoe apart with our bare hands.

This week, veteran Vermont fisheries biologist Shawn Good counts every minnow and takes a slap shot at DIY fish stockers, we ruin a perfectly good walleye bite by introducing a lack of common sense, sue a jet skier for ruining our bug zapper, and deep fry a whole bunch of largemouths to prove everyone would rather freeze for minuscule perch.

This week, the honorable Nate P. angles on the Black Sabbath and shows us where the bodies are floating, we catch the world’s smallest steelhead and the biggest pit viper carp, have a terrible shaving accident while infusing dough bait with fear, and feed Tuna Helper to obnoxious squirrels.

This week, Jim Fee leaves his family at the zoo to trespass with teenagers, we prepare our dads to have their arms ripped off in a foreign country, soak Kool-Aid infused chicken for frozen trout, and wood chop our way to disappointment at the drainage pipe.

This week, Captain Eric Kerber, “Neighbor” Steve McIntyre, and Matt Farrell ring in the New Year by lying about chain pickerel, we turn our kids into blood-thirsty fish killers, inject adrenaline right into our hearts to stop a glide bait overdose, and book a UFO sight-seeing cruise because it’s cheaper than a tuna trip.

This week, Miles Nolte dons “gum boots” and plays Santa at the Kiwi hatchery pond, we ruin Christmas by forgetting that water freezes when it’s cold, glue two pairs of waders together and hope our Doc Martens stay dry, and make our wives pick out super-complicated lures for us.

This week, Zach “Hammer” Miller and Captain Frank Campbell join forces to overtake Skein Bag Sam, we bring the smoke to the gambling hall and get on a hot brown streak, plead with nine cable access viewers to help us feel our hands, and discuss how soup isn’t really that good.

This week, veteran filmmaker R.A. Beattie follows topwater retrieves for 30 days to capture one clip of his grandpa’s garage exploding, we explain why Mongolia is like Montana minus all the yoga dojos, clean out our drawers and ship the contents to Slovenia, and use AI to create the perfect salmon for the Duke of Wolsingham.
