    Back In Time, When the Skies Were Black

    Back In Time, When the Skies Were Black

    This week for TMT, we discuss a listener suggestion we got on Instagram. If you could choose any time period to go back to and hunt for a few days, which would it be? Joey and Cal both talk about taking a trip back in time to when “the skies were black”. Carter shares his ideal time to go back and hunt as well and we talk pros and cons of hunting in that time as well as what we’d hope to see. Thanks for listening and be sure to suggest some other topics for us as well! Subscribe and review!

    Podcast From the Pontoon; Group Vs. Solo Hunting

    Podcast From the Pontoon; Group Vs. Solo Hunting

    This week we took the chance to get out of the studio and do a little fishing beforehand so we did the podcast on the pontoon from the lake. We had a good old fashioned fish off between Joey and Carter and debated our asses off about whether you’d rather hunt solo or with a group all the time. Tough to imagine only being able to do one but for the sake of the argument we present our cases. We also draft our best reasons for being late to a hunt! Thanks for following along and be sure to subscribe for more waterfowl content!
