This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, Ang and Pete are joined by Ontario's Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry, Hon. Graydon Smith.

First, however, a bit of housekeeping was in order. Topics discussed include: getting minted; running into Napanneans; confusing the news; structure vs. cover; going shallow for walleye; getting distracted by secondary species; semantics;  loon-poop bays; ancient bass; killing records; man caves; David Wilcox; unconventional tuning; and the pound for pound best fighting fish in Canada.

With that out of the way, Minister Smith joins the show! Topics discussed include: where the F came from; his time as a Blue Jays broadcaster; how he became the Minister; how a young person gets into politics; catching snapping turtles; whether Ministers need outdoor experience; settling Turtle Gate; how much power the MNRF has; who manages federal hunting issues; where are all the COs?; 30 by 30; the need for public feedback; and much more!
