Moose Hunt Podcast

Episode 58 is the final part of a 2 part series in which OMM Team member Rob Fickett shares his 2024 guiding season. Rob shares some challenges encountered along the way in his October season in great detail before then going into the incredible story of perseverance guiding a late season cow moose hunt. While a cow hunt may not garner the excitement associated with a trophy bull harvest; this one was special. The cow harvested ended up being a collared and tagged moose that was originally tagged multiple years ago as a part of Maine's moose population/winter tick research project. The story of this cow and the immense knowledge she shared with our biologists is amazing and is a story OMM is proud to be a part of.

Episode 57 is the story from the guide's perspective of the second year OMM Outfitters has had the privilege of hosting another hunt through Three Rangers Foundation and supported by KUIU and other supporters for a gold star family member. This year the hunter in camp was a current active-duty Army Ranger named Mike Blanchard. This story is incredible and was guided my none other than OMM Guide and purple heart veteran Rob Fickett. Rob shares an in depth day by day recount of the epic hunt- lets just say Rob definitely had the "hot hand" this year and we are so thrilled with the experience Mike was able to have in the woods in northern Maine this year.
