Jeff was away doing that OSR thing, so Capt. Kevin and Capt. Kirk called in Ringpower Fishing Forecast co-host Capt. Ricky Poupore to sit in!

‘Tis the season to let it burn! To be more specific, it’s time for some controlled burning, which is exactly what Jeff was doing all week.

OS 1307: Chillin’ Out

In case you didn’t know, the Outdoors Show is based out of Jacksonville, FL. But then why does it feel like we’re in Jacksonville, Maine (and yes, that’s a real place)?

But the weather wasn’t the only thing that spurred conversation – the guys talked about all things fishing and hunting, government overreach, venison sausage and turkey vulture trivia (and yes, they really did talk about turkey vultures).
