In this episode, I recap some of my adventures I experienced on my recent family vacation to Australia, the land down under!  We traveled to Sydney, Australia, then to Cairns, Australia, and then wrapped it up at Katoomba, Australia.  We did several outdoor adventures and tours throughout our trip, seeing Kangaroos, wombats, wallabies, fruit bats (flying fox), crocodiles, and even the elusive platypus. We toured the Daintree Rainforest, snorkeled the great barrier reef, and hiked thru the “Blue Mountains” of the Katoomba, Australia.  I also treated myself to fishing trip in Cairns, where I caught some interesting fish. Hear all about it.

Then we bring it back home to talk about chasing tarpon here in the local waters of deep South Texas.

In this episode, we talk with Tejano Outdoors, a couple of young guys who in my opinion capture the essence and the spirit of South Texas outdoors through their short form video content. They both love the outdoors, with one being raised in it and the other who started much later. Join us as we ask Erich and Luis how they got started in the outdoors and how they decided to share their passion with the world thru Instagram. They have an interesting story as to how they began, and they share some cool hunting stories.   We also get into creating outdoor content in general.
