    Site visit with Mississippi Wildlife Land biologist

    On this episode, I talk with John Grouchy and Colby Henderson of Mississippi Wildlife and Fisheries. They are land Biologist and we discuss things from our site visit of my property today. I know that audio isn't the best. I had to move my podcast equipment from my home to my front porch of my camp. The wind was worse than expected and we are all 3 sitting around a table trying to use 2 microphones.

    2023 Food Plot update

    In this episode, I update what I am seeing in my food plots after the drought and heat of the 2023 summer and fall. We had no measurable ran for almost 100 days, with highs consistently over 100 degrees during that time. There is very little native browse to eat currently because of the drought conditions, so the food plots are as important as ever.

    2023 Food Plot Stratagy

    In this episode, I talk about what I did with food plots last year, and the failures of those plots. I then discuss what I have done differently, with location, seed mix and how I prepared the areas. I hope you find this informative. This is absolutely a learning process for me. I am trying to use the little bit of food plot experience that I have, join it with my landscape horticulture experience, and throw in a heavy mix of ideas that I have learned from listening to other podcast (Drop Tine Seed, Land and Legacy, MSU deer lab, etc.). Levee from Tigerdroppings sent me his food plot prescription for this year a few months back. I would like to hear from others, see pictures, and then maybe do some podcast this winter or next spring about the results and what they would do differently.
