And I was just using 185 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:15,960 Speaker 9: a big motor idle down as much as I could. 186 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:17,720 Speaker 8: So we were running about two and a half miles 187 00:09:17,720 --> 00:09:18,080 Speaker 8: an hour. 188 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 5: Okay, were you running a spoon or a fly or 189 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 5: what were you running? 190 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,839 Speaker 8: I guess the flashers called a scutty dog maybe. 191 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. 192 00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:31,360 Speaker 9: I picked it up that morning, good good, and pulling 193 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:33,800 Speaker 9: like a green and white squid behind it. 194 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:34,600 Speaker 3: Yep. Nice. 195 00:09:35,720 --> 00:09:38,120 Speaker 9: And you know, I fished with a buddy out there 196 00:09:38,160 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 9: a few years ago and we caught a few, you know, 197 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 9: ten to fifteen pounds, and that's what we. 198 00:09:44,080 --> 00:09:47,760 Speaker 8: Used then, and so, not knowing any better, I just 199 00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 8: used the same thing. 200 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 5: So did you you had to get that thing weighed officially? 201 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,199 Speaker 5: Did you have to take it to a marina or 202 00:09:54,240 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 5: how'd you handle that part of it? 203 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 8: Well? 204 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 9: Yeah, you know, we we kept fishing for a while 205 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 9: and what they told me later, I should have gone 206 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:06,000 Speaker 9: right in. But we went to the Portbeck Marina and 207 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:09,760 Speaker 9: it weighed thirty two point eight there, but their scale 208 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 9: was not certified for this year. So we went over 209 00:10:12,559 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 9: to Lake Bridge and it weighed thirty two point eight there, 210 00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 9: but it wasn't certified for place either. But a fellow 211 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 9: there man, he loaded my cooler up with ice and 212 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 9: so then packing around. 213 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 5: As the longer it goes, it's losing weight, right, like 214 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 5: why is evaporating out of it? 215 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 9: Yep, And that's what I was told. I probably lost 216 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 9: one or two pounds. 217 00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 5: Oh really, huh? 218 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 8: I don't know. 219 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 9: I love fishing, but I'm not an expert, right, so 220 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 9: I think it was robbed at lake Bridge. He got 221 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,000 Speaker 9: a hold of Steve Dolby out of Glasgow who could 222 00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 9: officially weigh it and measure it, and he said, well, 223 00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:55,480 Speaker 9: meet you at Rentals market there in Glasgow. So we 224 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 9: went in there and put it on their meat market scale. 225 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,600 Speaker 9: But it unfortunately maxed out at thirty pounds, so that 226 00:11:03,679 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 9: wasn't gonna work. And he says, well, let's try the deli, 227 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 9: which is on the other end of the store. So 228 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 9: we packed the cooler down to the other end and 229 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,079 Speaker 9: no maxed out at thirty.

I was gonna 351 00:16:30,280 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 5: bring some in today, had it thought out in the freezer, 352 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 5: and forgot it. 353 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:38,200 Speaker 2: Well you can, uh, what what's your method of doing that? 354 00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,360 Speaker 5: I mean, I dry brine it in a mixture of 355 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 5: brown sugar and salt is the two main You can 356 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,880 Speaker 5: put other spices in there if you want, but it's 357 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 5: really like the sugar and the salt. So you just 358 00:16:51,520 --> 00:16:54,560 Speaker 5: pack those filets in a mixture of brown sugar and salt. 359 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,800 Speaker 5: Let it sit for I like to overdo it because 360 00:16:57,800 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 5: it'll get too salty. But twelve hours set them so overnight. 361 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:05,119 Speaker 4: Out I mean in open air or vac Are you 362 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 4: sealing that? 363 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 1: No? 364 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 5: No, you just like I have a big tub that 365 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 5: I lay. I'll lay a layer of filets, pack it 366 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 5: with salt and sugar, lay another layer of flets. Pack 367 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:19,119 Speaker 5: and just stack that up, okay, and uh throw it 368 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:22,120 Speaker 5: in the fridge overnight. And when you when you check 369 00:17:22,160 --> 00:17:24,680 Speaker 5: that stuff in the morning, it's just liquid in there, 370 00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 5: like it's way yeah, it sucks all it's swimming in 371 00:17:28,359 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 5: that brine. And that's when you know you're good to go, 372 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 5: because you pick up those filets in the real firm 373 00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 5: and they're not quite as as Uh. 374 00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 2: Can you taste a fish or are you mostly tasting 375 00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 2: what you drive? Oh? 376 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,160 Speaker 5: You can taste it. If you go way too heavy 377 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 5: on the salt, it's just gonna taste like salt. So 378 00:17:45,200 --> 00:17:48,120 Speaker 5: that's why I go a little lighter. And uh, then 379 00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 5: I you gotta after that stuff sits in the brine, 380 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 5: you gotta dry it. Off, and then you gotta let 381 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:55,879 Speaker 5: it sit for a while. Usually I'll put a fan 382 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 5: on it, because you've got to develop what's called a pellicle, 383 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 5: which is like kind of a sticky, dry layer, and 384 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 5: that's what grabs onto that smoke when you put it 385 00:18:05,040 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 5: in that. So then you throw it in the smoke, 386 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 5: or I try not to do it very hot at all, 387 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 5: like one fifty one sixty. It's okay if it gets 388 00:18:13,880 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 5: up to one eighty two hundred and you're gonna start 389 00:18:17,119 --> 00:18:19,840 Speaker 5: cooking it instead of smoking it, which is not what 390 00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:23,359 Speaker 5: you want to do. If you can avoid it, and 391 00:18:23,600 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 5: to get it to where I like it pretty dry, 392 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,480 Speaker 5: like you saw in the picture. It's it's three or 393 00:18:29,480 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 5: four hours usually. Okay, some people like it a lot moister, 394 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 5: and two hours is plenty for that. But but I'm 395 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,280 Speaker 5: doing it for a specific purpose and I want it dry, 396 00:18:39,320 --> 00:18:40,199 Speaker 5: so I go longer. 397 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,240 Speaker 2: If you take well, I mean, what do you take? 398 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 2: Just an arbitrary number of them, or you could try 399 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 2: to do. 400 00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:53,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, man, yeah, I think I did. Probably, I don't know. 401 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 2: I'm talking about when you when y'all take off, when 402 00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 2: you load your pack, you're trying to put three pounds 403 00:18:58,320 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 2: in there. 404 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 5: No, no, like one or two filets. It was plenty 405 00:19:02,440 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 5: for it, because you know you're just snacking on it. 406 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,920 Speaker 5: I'll probably for We'll be hunting for nine or ten 407 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:12,760 Speaker 5: days up in Alaska, so I'll probably take I don't know, 408 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,760 Speaker 5: six or eight filets up there. 409 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, Saith, but you've been working on anything, oh man. 410 00:19:20,560 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 3: The one thing I struggle with, because I always have 411 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:25,119 Speaker 3: a lot of fish in my freezer from Alaska, is 412 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:27,560 Speaker 3: like trying to figure out and come up with new 413 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: things to do with it. I currently have a bunch 414 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 3: of halibit in the freezer, and I'm always like trying 415 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,760 Speaker 3: to figure out what to do with other than frying 416 00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:40,880 Speaker 3: it or whatnot. So the other day I took some 417 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 3: fresh parmesan and grated it real fine, just packed it 418 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 3: on the top of a fly, seasoned it up and 419 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 3: stuff put some garlic on their salt pepper, and then 420 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,679 Speaker 3: bake that in the oven not very long. It was 421 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 3: a fairly small filet, but those smaller halbit flays are 422 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 3: just oh yeah, they're yeah. And then to finish it off, 423 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 3: I turned a broiler on and kind of crisped up 424 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:10,960 Speaker 3: that parmesan on the top.

This week's 747 00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,640 Speaker 10: Chettikit question comes to us from Blake. Blake writes, if 748 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 10: I can see it on this piece of paper here. 749 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 10: Here's a personal dilemma I'm having. I went on a 750 00:35:18,440 --> 00:35:21,799 Speaker 10: guided hunt some years back. The guide guided me on 751 00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:26,520 Speaker 10: some public land DLM and State in New Mexico. I 752 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 10: had a really good hunt, and I killed a smoker buck. 753 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 10: Since then, the guide has raised his prices and I've 754 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 10: been applying. I've been applying on my own for the 755 00:35:38,120 --> 00:35:41,360 Speaker 10: tag here in New Mexico. I've drawn this tag, and 756 00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:43,880 Speaker 10: I'm wondering if I go back to the area I 757 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,920 Speaker 10: killed the buck in, is that screwed up? Or should 758 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 10: I feel guilty if I run into the guide? 759 00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:51,680 Speaker 5: Oh, you should definitely feel guilty. 760 00:35:54,640 --> 00:35:56,920 Speaker 10: Loody, That spot burning. 761 00:35:58,760 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 11: Man's wrong. 762 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 8: I think you knew what you do it all along. 763 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:16,879 Speaker 5: That spot burning. Don't you call up. 764 00:36:16,840 --> 00:36:21,759 Speaker 10: The guide and see what he has to say. 765 00:36:21,760 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 3: Whoa Chester, That's phenomenal? 766 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:24,359 Speaker 5: Hell all right? 767 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 10: So spot burning is when someone shows you a spot 768 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,359 Speaker 10: and then you go and hunt that area and you 769 00:36:30,400 --> 00:36:32,680 Speaker 10: do not notify that person that you're going to be 770 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 10: in there. That is a no no. However, Blake, I 771 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,399 Speaker 10: don't want you to eat your tag that you put 772 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 10: in and spend money on. So maybe this unit in 773 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,200 Speaker 10: New Mexico is large and you can go hunt not 774 00:36:44,320 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 10: where you killed the buck last time, but maybe on 775 00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 10: the other side of the unit. Look for a similar 776 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:54,160 Speaker 10: area topography, and hopefully you can still get in to 777 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:55,200 Speaker 10: a good hunt. 778 00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: Wise words, that was good advice from Chester crowd. 779 00:36:59,680 --> 00:37:00,000 Speaker 4: Yeah. 780 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 5: I don't think this one requires a lot of debate. 781 00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:05,720 Speaker 2: No, I had some experience with that, guiding duck hunters 782 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:08,000 Speaker 2: on public land back when it was legal in Arkansas 783 00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: and taking folks in there or I mean, it's really 784 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:14,200 Speaker 2: to me, it's really no different than taking your buddies 785 00:37:14,200 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 2: somewhere to a place you found and there, then you 786 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:18,320 Speaker 2: go back and then they're in there. 787 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:22,040 Speaker 5: I mean, he could have if he knew at some 788 00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 5: point in the future he was thinking about hunting that 789 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 5: same place again, he could have asked the guide then, Yeah, 790 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:31,399 Speaker 5: you're probably gonna get an answer like, well, I make 791 00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 5: a living here. You know, it is public land, so 792 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 5: it's not like he doesn't have the right to go there. 793 00:37:40,719 --> 00:37:42,200 Speaker 5: It's just like a courtesy thing. 794 00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:42,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. 795 00:37:42,840 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, I was gonna say, like he if you really 796 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,000 Speaker 3: wanted to push the issue, like he could call the 797 00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 3: guide yeah and be like, hey man, I just want 798 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:52,560 Speaker 3: to run this past you.

And every time we were 999 00:48:44,040 --> 00:48:46,239 Speaker 2: running these nets, with the water conditions the way they 1000 00:48:46,280 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 2: were that day, we were just smashing them and we 1001 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 2: were catching one hundred pounds of fish, one hundred and 1002 00:48:52,680 --> 00:48:56,200 Speaker 2: fifty pounds of fish every time we went. And then 1003 00:48:56,239 --> 00:48:59,000 Speaker 2: we go out there and we pull up our net. 1004 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,919 Speaker 2: The first net, it's got fish in it, no bait. 1005 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:04,719 Speaker 2: We go to the second net, pull it up, it's 1006 00:49:04,719 --> 00:49:07,439 Speaker 2: got fish and no bait. We go to the third one, 1007 00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:09,839 Speaker 2: we pick it up and there's no fish and no 1008 00:49:09,920 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 2: bait in there, So we just got to do. 1009 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 4: A little figure in there. 1010 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 2: Somebody's helping us. Somebody's helping us fish out now, so 1011 00:49:19,520 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 2: we have we've laid a plan to catch them in 1012 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:26,080 Speaker 2: as soon as the the weather gets a little cooled off. 1013 00:49:26,080 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 2: We're gonna maybe get some video or pictures of these 1014 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 2: folks running. But I mean, all you gotta do is 1015 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:36,080 Speaker 2: just come ask I give them some fish. They ain't 1016 00:49:36,120 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 2: got to steal them. But fortunately they left my net. 1017 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:39,080 Speaker 2: They didn't take it. 1018 00:49:40,080 --> 00:49:45,480 Speaker 5: Now, as as a man of the law, is it, 1019 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:46,720 Speaker 5: what's the penalty. 1020 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 2: For doing you know, I don't know. 1021 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:50,799 Speaker 5: A question for your friend we're about to talk to. 1022 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:55,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be very well, couldn't be. But that 1023 00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,160 Speaker 2: was not a That wasn't a good day of fishing, 1024 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,000 Speaker 2: because it's a lot of work, man. Anybody tell you, 1025 00:50:00,120 --> 00:50:04,200 Speaker 2: the easiest thing about being commercial fisherman is telling somebody 1026 00:50:04,239 --> 00:50:06,919 Speaker 2: you are one, because everything else is a lot of work. 1027 00:50:08,080 --> 00:50:11,759 Speaker 2: But another time comes to mind, it really wasn't a 1028 00:50:11,800 --> 00:50:16,759 Speaker 2: bad day fishing. It was just kind of an unusual 1029 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 2: set of circumstances. My brother and I were fishing, were 1030 00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 2: trout fishing up on the Little Red River, and we 1031 00:50:24,840 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 2: were had got we've been camped up there and we 1032 00:50:27,320 --> 00:50:29,800 Speaker 2: wanted to go to a place that we caught fish 1033 00:50:29,840 --> 00:50:31,920 Speaker 2: the day before. When we got there, there was an 1034 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:34,000 Speaker 2: older man an older woman, and they were already set 1035 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:37,280 Speaker 2: up there fishing. So we were just kind of waiting 1036 00:50:37,280 --> 00:50:40,120 Speaker 2: them out, fishing up the river from them and waiting 1037 00:50:40,120 --> 00:50:42,120 Speaker 2: for them to finally get through. And they're just pulling 1038 00:50:42,120 --> 00:50:44,320 Speaker 2: fish after fish out of this hole into the boat, 1039 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:46,959 Speaker 2: but they're turning them back out. Then you know they've 1040 00:50:46,960 --> 00:50:49,480 Speaker 2: caught way over their limit, but they they're releasing them. 1041 00:50:49,480 --> 00:50:54,280 Speaker 2: They're not keeping any of them. And unfortunately or fortunately, 1042 00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:55,399 Speaker 2: however you want to look at it. 1043 00:50:55,760 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 4: I hooked. I hooked myself and I hooked up. 1044 00:50:58,160 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 2: I put a little trail through my thumb, and we're 1045 00:51:03,200 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 2: at this point we floated down the river and we're probably, 1046 00:51:06,280 --> 00:51:09,160 Speaker 2: I don't know, fifteen yards from him, and they're looking 1047 00:51:09,200 --> 00:51:11,839 Speaker 2: over the shoulder. They know what we're waiting, what we're 1048 00:51:11,840 --> 00:51:14,240 Speaker 2: waiting on to do and trying to get in that spot. 1049 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:16,200 Speaker 2: And I told my brother, said, oh man, I got 1050 00:51:16,200 --> 00:51:18,600 Speaker 2: hook in my hand. They turn around looking he said, 1051 00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:21,239 Speaker 2: how bad is it? And I said it's really bad, 1052 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:24,680 Speaker 2: But it wasn't it was under it was just under 1053 00:51:24,760 --> 00:51:26,960 Speaker 2: that under the skin. So I told him, I said, 1054 00:51:26,960 --> 00:51:28,759 Speaker 2: get your pocket knife and cut it out. And they 1055 00:51:28,760 --> 00:51:31,399 Speaker 2: both put the rods down and they're they're looking back 1056 00:51:31,400 --> 00:51:33,920 Speaker 2: at us, watching and he walks up there and he 1057 00:51:33,920 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 2: doesn't he knows what I'm doing because he looks at 1058 00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:37,400 Speaker 2: it and he looks at me, like, you did, you 1059 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 2: can pull that out. But he took his pocket knife 1060 00:51:39,920 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 2: out where they could see it and he makes a 1061 00:51:42,280 --> 00:51:45,040 Speaker 2: little cut like their like. Ah, I said, let's fish, 1062 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 2: We'll go back to fishing. And I heard him say, Bertha, 1063 00:51:48,040 --> 00:51:50,960 Speaker 2: let's go. They put the rods in the boat and 1064 00:51:51,040 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 2: left and we got get there. Oh yeah, we caught Yeah, 1065 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,239 Speaker 2: we caught some fish for trout from rainbows. 1066 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:00,200 Speaker 4: That's for a fly fetish. 1067 00:52:00,239 --> 00:52:03,200 Speaker 2: I was doing the evil spin casting back then. 1068 00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:04,719 Speaker 3: Oh I still do that. 1069 00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:08,120 Speaker 2: We're putting them in the boat though.

We're talking old mature bears, the kind of 1197 00:58:26,040 --> 00:58:28,160 Speaker 12: bears that need to be taken off the landscape. 1198 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:31,800 Speaker 11: No teeth, I mean, they were they were awesome. 1199 00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:36,919 Speaker 2: Bear quickly, give me give me two good reasons why 1200 00:58:36,960 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 2: you want to hunt bears with hounds. 1201 00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:40,360 Speaker 7: Uh. 1202 00:58:40,480 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 12: The first reason is is because it's fun. I mean, 1203 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:45,960 Speaker 12: it really is fun when you take a hound, and 1204 00:58:47,040 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 12: you know, everybody talks about it being easy, even some 1205 00:58:49,160 --> 00:58:51,880 Speaker 12: people in the hunting community that thinks it's not fair chase. 1206 00:58:51,960 --> 00:58:56,240 Speaker 12: But when you consider the work that goes into developing 1207 00:58:56,280 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 12: a hound, and that could start three generations back by 1208 00:58:59,720 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 12: you know, a breeding that you made, and then you 1209 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:05,960 Speaker 12: raise those pups up generation after generation and see them 1210 00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:07,320 Speaker 12: come about, I mean. 1211 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:08,280 Speaker 11: That's really rewarding. 1212 00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 12: The other thing is is it is hunting with hounds 1213 00:59:11,600 --> 00:59:15,840 Speaker 12: is really the original fair chase method for hunting. With 1214 00:59:16,320 --> 00:59:19,680 Speaker 12: hunting when we have a bear treat or a lion treed. Uh, 1215 00:59:19,880 --> 00:59:22,600 Speaker 12: and even to some extents, you know the old bandido 1216 00:59:22,720 --> 00:59:24,520 Speaker 12: like you like to call them. Yeah, you can be 1217 00:59:24,600 --> 00:59:27,280 Speaker 12: pretty selective on whether you're taking a boar or sow 1218 00:59:29,240 --> 00:59:32,560 Speaker 12: of a tom lion or a female lion, just because 1219 00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:36,280 Speaker 12: you've got that opportunity. You're under the tree and you've 1220 00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:39,560 Speaker 12: got that opportunity to really look that animal over and 1221 00:59:39,640 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 12: make a really good decision. And I mean I've glass 1222 00:59:43,600 --> 00:59:46,280 Speaker 12: bears and lions and stuff across big canyons. 1223 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:49,800 Speaker 11: It's tough. It's a lot tougher to. 1224 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:52,080 Speaker 12: Be able to do that, and when I'm hunting with 1225 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 12: a hound, it really cuts that down a lot. 1226 00:59:54,800 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's the it's the original catch and release method 1227 00:59:57,640 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 2: for sure, you bet, Chris. We're going to be watching 1228 01:00:01,000 --> 01:00:03,920 Speaker 2: for the National Houndsman Alliance and any kind of news 1229 01:00:03,960 --> 01:00:06,640 Speaker 2: coming up.
