The Outdoors Show

Capt. Kevin and Capt. Scott waste no time talking about how good the inshore and offshore fishing has been so far in April.  It’s a bit different than normal, but they’re catching all kinds of fish already!  So the real question is this: if the fishing is good in early April, just how good is going to get for the rest of the month and into May?  Listen in to get the weather forecast and their predictions about just how good things are going to get.

What in the world is an outdoors fanatic on the First Coast to do?  The guys talk about the difficult decisions they have to face between heading to the woods for turkey or heading to the water for…well, everything!

Between the fishing stories and the hit-and-miss turkey stories, we had a lot of ground to cover and a lot of fun to have.

During the show, the latest Skiff Challenge wrapped up, and the guys kept everybody up to speed.  Dave “Scoop” Edwards checked in, serving as our intrepid reporter, and he gave us the lowdown and all the inside-the-business info.  Listen in to find out who won it (and how beat up they are).  One warning, though – things do go a little sideways.  Be warned…you’ll never look at a muzzleloader the same way!.

Capt. Kevin looked into his crystal ball.  Capt. Scott read the tea leaves.  And they were right!  Last week, they said conditions were starting to look outstanding for some off-the-hook (on-the-hook?) fishing all over the First Coast.  The water’s still a bit chilly, but temperatures are beginning to heat up, and so is the fishing.  […]

With Capt. Kirk out of the studio to cheer on his soccer-star granddaughter, Capt. Kevin and Jeff had the pleasure of talking with guests Capt. Chris Peterson and Dave Edwards about the CRAZY Florida Skiff Challenge.  More importantly, they talked about “Captains For Clean Water”, the charity organization it supports.  This is one wild challenge!

Jeff also introduced a cool list of angling records that supposedly “will never be broken”.  One record, according to Capt. Kevin, WILL be broken…wondering which one it is?  Listen in to find out.

And somehow…we got to talking about K-Mart.  K-Mart?  Blue Light Special in Outdoor Supplies…

This episode hit the air on April Fool’s Day, and things got downright foolish for Capt. Kevin and Capt. Scott today.  It was windy, it was wet, and it was all kinds of chilly.  The good news is that the fishing situation is changing for the better; Capt. Scott celebrated FOUR firsts on his most […]

This episode hit the air on April Fool’s Day, and things got downright foolish for Capt. Kevin and Capt. Scott today.  It was windy, it was wet, and it was all kinds of chilly.  The good news is that the fishing situation is changing for the better; Capt. Scott celebrated FOUR firsts on his most recent trip, so listen in to see what he caught.

But the big question is this: which was the joke that Mother Nature played on us – the sweltering heat of late spring/early summer, or the chilly bite of winter?  The guys will tell you as they get you ready for the upcoming week.

As pretty much everyone noticed, the First Coast was covered in fog this week, and at times, things got pretty creepy.  The guys talked about it…well, Capt. Kevin and Capt. Kirk talked about it.  Jeff was dealing with some velvet fog of his own – he was recovering from a cold, and boy, did he sound funny.

The good news was that turkey season is now officially underway.  Jeff shared his story about bagging his first of the season, and Kirk shared his story of, well, almost bagging his first.  But don’t be fooled – the story is fantastic, even though it didn’t end with a gobbler getting folded up.

One important note: not saying this episode was built to go sideways, but when Kirk brings in the best rum cake ever baked…

If you’ve listened to the Fishing Forecast for any length of time at all, you can safely say that Capt. Kevin and Capt. Scott have pretty much seen it all.  And what they haven’t seen, they know somebody who’s seen it.  With that said, we come to this week’s episode, in which they both admit […]

If you’ve listened to the Fishing Forecast for any length of time at all, you can safely say that Capt. Kevin and Capt. Scott have pretty much seen it all.  And what they haven’t seen, they know somebody who’s seen it.  With that said, we come to this week’s episode, in which they both admit they have NEVER seen conditions like this for a time span this long.  Capt. Ricky, who sat in with the guys, agreed wholeheartedly.  So what are those conditions, and will this week’s weather help the situation?  Listen in to find out…
