The guys were back in studio, and they were a bit conflicted. Of course, everyone is all about all things Christmas this time of year, but with the weather as good as it is – and the fishing as good as it is – how could you not talk about it?

The conversation bounced around all over the place between fishing, hunting, sting ray barbs, Christmas gift ideas, Christmas movies and TV specials, lines from Star Wars (?!?)…no joke – this episode BOUNCED.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year for everyone, and thanks to the great weather, even the fish were getting into it! Capt. Kevin and the Unusual Suspects talked about it for the whole show…and talked about how good it may be.  Tune in to find out just how good it’s going to be!

The boys were broadcasting live from Standard Feed & Seed for the Holiday Ho-Ho-Hoedown to spread some Christmas cheer, collect toys for Operation Santa’s Heroes, and take part in all the festivities. The talk went all kinds of sideways pretty much from the start, as is the case anytime the boys are on location. Lots of great stories and fun stuff…100% must-listen!!

Sometimes, you just gotta sit back and revel in what Mother Nature drops in your lap.  Capt. Kevin and the Unusual Suspects couldn’t stop talking about how great the weather was…and how great it’s going to continue to be in the coming week.  Listen in to find out just how good it’s gonna get!

As you know, there’s always a lot to talk about on the Outdoors Show, but boy, did the guys hit on A LOT of different things in this episode! You’ll have to listen closely to hear how the conversation found its way to barbed wire…but it was really interesting stuff.

In the midst of the rambling conversation, it was decided that in two weeks, on December 20, the first ever Outdoors Show Green Off will take place! Stay tuned for more info…because the gang has no idea how this is supposed to work.

And just when you thought the show couldn’t get any more sideways, Jeff started singing the praises of his favorite road trip restaurant, the Mustard Seed Buffet. But everything went south when, much to everyone’s chagrin, we found out it closed down.  HOWEVER – the OS Family quickly rebounded with suggestion after suggestion for great southern cooking restaurants.

After a few weeks away, Capt. Kevin made his triumphant return to the Fishing Forecast show, and what do you think he did? You know what he did: he had the Unusual Suspects check in with their reports, of course!  Couple that with talk about the weather on the way, and you get some fun chatter and a great glimpse into what lies ahead for you on the water.

With Kevin doing OSR in Georgia (and checking in with his fancy new technology), Domenic Paniccia sat in with Capt. Kirk and Jeff for this post-Thanksgiving episode.

Doug, one of our callers, asked a question about fishing frustrations…and boy, did the fur fly after that one! You’ll have to listen in and take some notes to keep track of all things that can get under an angler’s skin! What’s your biggest pet peeve?

What do you think of when you think November? Deer hunting. Football. Thanksgiving, of course. But what about TEMPS IN THE 80s???? Amazing how the unseasonably high temperatures change the conversation about everything outdoors.

All kinds of chatter and stories about deer, the good stuff happening in the water, and the talk even went a little sideways about Shahid Khan’s 400-ft, $360M super-yacht Kismet.

With Capt. Kevin in No-Man’s-Land Georgia this week, Capt. Chip Wingo swung by the studio for this episode. Didn’t take but a minute to get into some chatter with the Unusual Suspects – Capt. Ricky Poupore, Capt. Leon Dana and Capt. Cory Sparks, specifically – about how things were going with the warm weather trend.

The big question: how thankful will we be in the next week? Listen in to get that forecast…

The guys were LIVE from Hagan Ace/Hagan Coastal Outfitters in Callahan to officially kick off the holiday season! It was a huge morning with all kinds of guests, gear experts, vendors and of course…lots of great outdoors stories. Great to be there live, of course, for all the big giveaways and sales, but the episode is also a great listen!
