All right, Okay, it's Jason Phelps Felts 23 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: game calls. You've been making a lot of calls. I 24 00:01:56,920 --> 00:02:00,320 Speaker 1: have just like our dudes buying turkey calls right now 25 00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 1: or did they already buy them? They are still right 26 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,040 Speaker 1: up to the last day, right up for the last 27 00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,720 Speaker 1: week buying. There's still guys like now that it's opening 28 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: day tomorrow. But the typical responses, Hey, if I ordered 29 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 1: the day, can you get him out tomorrow? And when 30 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: they beat at me by the next day, can you 31 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:16,239 Speaker 1: have my can you have to my camps up? Yeah? No, 32 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:20,519 Speaker 1: it's okay. So here you are. It's dark, okay, and 33 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: and uh you're a hundred fifty yards away, and here's 34 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:36,120 Speaker 1: what's happening. Okay, So that's what's going on. Okay. So 35 00:02:36,160 --> 00:02:38,000 Speaker 1: we're gonna do real soft tree ELPs if they're still 36 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 1: on the tree. So this is so okay. So so 37 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,160 Speaker 1: you're you're calculating they're up in the roost and you're 38 00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 1: gonna this is how you're gonna do it. And no, Paul, 39 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 1: it's not gonna be a lot. You know, drag goes out. Well, 40 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: these galblers are low t because normal goblins would have 41 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 1: been all over that. Yeah. So if my calling is 42 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: that bad that they won't even respond out of the 43 00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:07,000 Speaker 1: root to my to my TREEO. Um, so that's your TREEO? 44 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:09,920 Speaker 1: Really quiet? Four to five yelps? And what are you 45 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: think of when you think in the trio, I'm just 46 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: letting him know. Ideally I'm still on the tree as 47 00:03:14,120 --> 00:03:16,080 Speaker 1: a hen. You know, they they they're pretty good at pinpointing. 48 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: But I'm trying to let them know there is a 49 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 1: you know, a hen over in that tree, and say trio. 50 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: When you say trio, you're saying that, not that you're 51 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,480 Speaker 1: yelping to them in the tree, but you're in your 52 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:29,600 Speaker 1: tree too. Still on my tree, I haven't flown down yet, 53 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,720 Speaker 1: so I'm trying to paint that picture. You may, they 54 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: usually roost next to some other hands. They knows it 55 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 1: for sure, thing, But I want to let him know, Hey, 56 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: there's another hen that's over here. Okay, hit me with 57 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: the tree. Help again. And so by their instant response, 58 00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: I know they just heard that, and so I may 59 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: not get really aggressive. I might do. That's enough, um, 60 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,040 Speaker 1: just to just to acknowledge that, because I'm getting to 61 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: a part point in my life where I feel like, 62 00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: if I was better at mass, I would figure if 63 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: he made no noise at all, What are the knowing 64 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:04,280 Speaker 1: that it's a three sixty degree circle around the gobblers tree? 65 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: What are the odds that he's just gonna walk past 66 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 1: you anyway? And it changes the farther out you get. 67 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 1: I feel, yeah, it would be a good math question 68 00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:14,920 Speaker 1: because I feel like I have like I feel like, 69 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: as much as you think you're gonna call gobblers off 70 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: the roost, it probably works about as many times? Is 71 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:24,240 Speaker 1: what the odds are that he's gonna walk through year 72 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: five degree band? Yeah, I'm gonna say, I'm I'm pretty 73 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: good at turkey off the roost math, and it's usually 74 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 1: zero times, like fow tries, so zero percent that thing. 75 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: No matter what, I've never still to this day killed 76 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:37,880 Speaker 1: the turkey off the roost. Yeah, I've been there when 77 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: it's happened, but many But then I feel like, well, yeah, eventually, 78 00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: eventually it makes sense that he'll leave the roost and 79 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 1: when he has, and he'll pick the spoke of the 80 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: wheel that I happen to be sitting up. And that's 81 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:54,279 Speaker 1: the times. But now, so who is the angry hen? Yeah? 82 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,040 Speaker 1: Well yeah, okay, so now then we hit you with 83 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,919 Speaker 1: this scenario now, and then i'nna hitt you with another scenario. 84 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,080 Speaker 1: So here's the scenario. Um, you're angry handing it. I 85 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:06,600 Speaker 1: can do that too, I guess. Okay, So so rem 86 00:05:06,800 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: hit your go well, hit your tree out, and Mark 87 00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: hits your angry hand. Okay, now what are you thinking? 88 00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: Has your thought changed? So he did he call it before? 89 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: He called it before I did my tree up, so 90 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 1: he never acknowledged me. I may tree up again and 91 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:27,880 Speaker 1: see if I can get him to spark off on that. Yet, 92 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:39,359 Speaker 1: let's try. I just want him to all right, and 93 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 1: then I'll probably be quiet. I want him to come, 94 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,640 Speaker 1: even though the angry hand is now angry. Yeah, I 95 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: mean you don't want to. They're typically fairly quiet in 96 00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 1: the tree, so you don't want to overdo it. Why 97 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: you're still on the tree and it's too dark to 98 00:05:50,640 --> 00:05:53,320 Speaker 1: pitch down, so you're just trying to He's acknowledged me 99 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: now and then I'm gonna be quiet until they do 100 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 1: heat up the right before they fly down, so we 101 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,719 Speaker 1: may get back in the game at that point. Yeah, 102 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,359 Speaker 1: because then they hit the ground and then so and 103 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: so often never make a peep because I mean, they 104 00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 1: made eye contact, they know what they're after. They don't 105 00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: need to communicate at that point, and so they seem 106 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,600 Speaker 1: to kind of they get pretty active right before they 107 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:13,480 Speaker 1: pitched down, and then kind of go silent there for 108 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,040 Speaker 1: a little bit, and then they'll pick back up. And 109 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,720 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit you with a notice scenario, and this 110 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:18,640 Speaker 1: is the one that gives me a little chub. So 111 00:06:21,160 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 1: all this happens and then nothing comes of it, and 112 00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: then you kind of wander around the woods all morning 113 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: and around ten am, okay, which is when a lot 114 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,960 Speaker 1: of turkeys get shot, at least the ones I shoot 115 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: at around ten am. All of a sudden, Now what 116 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: are you thinking? So before I make a sound, I 117 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 1: want to get as close as close as the terrain 118 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: and the vegetation will allow, before I make a peep. 119 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,000 Speaker 1: He's just he's just giving up his location. I want 120 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: to be as silent as I can. I'll get as 121 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,440 Speaker 1: close as it lets me and then I'll sit down 122 00:06:54,480 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 1: and I'm going because he's been out love making the 123 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,239 Speaker 1: hands all morning, they all drift off and so before 124 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 1: that happens. Also, what's going on in my head is 125 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: this thing just let off a beagle in the middle 126 00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: of the day by himself. He's probably looking for hens 127 00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:07,080 Speaker 1: at that point you all the hens went into lay 128 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 1: um and so I'm already thinking this is a you know, 129 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: not a for sure thing, but my odds are very 130 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: very high at that bird. As you mentioned, you're you're 131 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 1: killing them at tend to to noon um, very very 132 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: high in that tend to two window um when they gobble. 133 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go get set up and I'm gonna 134 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 1: go to my seven to nine note you know, yelp, 135 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,640 Speaker 1: And if I can only bring one call in the woods, 136 00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: it would be this, your typical yelp. So this is 137 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: what you're hitting the middle of the day, hot gabbler yep. 138 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:43,960 Speaker 1: So we'll go sit down, little and so we'll react 139 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:46,040 Speaker 1: to that gobble thing a little bit, you know, is 140 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:48,320 Speaker 1: if he gobbles all, maybe try to turn the temperature 141 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: up um with the yelps, and then if he becomes disinterested, 142 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,679 Speaker 1: we'll maybe give it five ten minutes and then go back. 143 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: I'm not really good at be impatient. I say five 144 00:07:56,440 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 1: to ten, which is probably like thirty seconds, and then 145 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:03,600 Speaker 1: I'll call again. Okay, so now here he is and 146 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: he shuts up, but you can hear him who knows 147 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 1: how to make a spit and it's spitting and drum 148 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:17,040 Speaker 1: and I could do this. It's uh yeah. So you're 149 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: hearing that and it just drags on. You're like, what 150 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: are you going on? Then? What are you gonna hit 151 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:28,240 Speaker 1: him with? Then we we'll switch the real subtle um clucks, purrs, 152 00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 1: maybe you know, even scratching the ground next to me. 153 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 1: A lot of times when I set up, I'll try 154 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: to bring some brush or some leaves next to me. 155 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 1: We'll we'll scratch around and that just real subtle noise. 156 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 1: At that time, they can try to get him to 157 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,599 Speaker 1: the pull in that last twenty or thirty yards or 158 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:42,720 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, because you're trying to sound like 159 00:08:42,760 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: a hand scratch that that purr and clucks, that real 160 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,200 Speaker 1: content sound, and so you don't want to necessarily want 161 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,960 Speaker 1: to blow him out anymore with that louder yelp or 162 00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: you know, excited cackles. You're just really trying to get 163 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,760 Speaker 1: him that last little bit or what we did in 164 00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:57,800 Speaker 1: some instances.

Okay, we're 267 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 1: gonna um, We're gonna cover a handful of things. But 268 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: first off, we got a mega correction, mega correction. Like 269 00:14:58,200 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: people were kind of irate, like this is one of 270 00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:03,120 Speaker 1: things that one of the biggest corrections, the biggest wrongs 271 00:15:03,200 --> 00:15:07,960 Speaker 1: we ever have had is I screwed up and was 272 00:15:08,000 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: reading how the how it's a it's a double layered 273 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 1: screw up. Keep explaining honest, yeah, let me let me, 274 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: let me why why you're doing that. I'll sort of 275 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:23,440 Speaker 1: set up the screw up. We were already discussing some 276 00:15:23,520 --> 00:15:28,120 Speaker 1: issues about baiting in Alabama, where in Alabama you've always 277 00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 1: been allowed to um do supplemental feeding for deer, but 278 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,360 Speaker 1: you couldn't bait for hunting purposes. So they came in 279 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 1: and tried to clarify the distinction between supplemental feeding for 280 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: deer and hunting purposes. And once they spelled it out, 281 00:15:44,160 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: it seemed to have, according to some people, invited a 282 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 1: level of interpretation where it said, for instance, it can't 283 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: you know, it has to be a hundred yards away 284 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 1: from you, like you're if you're hunting, any bait has 285 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: to be more than a hundred yards away from you. 286 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 1: It has to be out of sight from you from 287 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:05,960 Speaker 1: a landscape feature. And a guy rode in to say, well, 288 00:16:05,960 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 1: people are exploiting this now and in putting a bait 289 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 1: behind a big hay bale yards away and saying well, 290 00:16:12,520 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: I can't see it, right, And it was causing this confusion, 291 00:16:17,120 --> 00:16:18,920 Speaker 1: and that led to this other thing where the House 292 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: in Alabama, the state House voted to just outright legalized 293 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:28,200 Speaker 1: baiting for deer and pigs. And we talked about how 294 00:16:28,280 --> 00:16:32,120 Speaker 1: that was a new law in Alabama, but in fact 295 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 1: not even kind of um, it was never made it 296 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,480 Speaker 1: to vote in the Senate, right, and then it's not 297 00:16:39,560 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: a law. Break it down, Ny, And this is you 298 00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: just broke it down. I don't know what else you 299 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 1: want me to add. It didn't make it so it's illegal. 300 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:50,400 Speaker 1: Debate which I was so weird about, like the supplemental feeding, 301 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 1: like I don't really understand that we should maybe looked 302 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 1: into that. But so I guess you can still do that. 303 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 1: You can feed wildlife, right, which can't bait for the 304 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,080 Speaker 1: sake of hunting. And so this judge that rode In 305 00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: was saying that they when they wrote this sort of 306 00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 1: thing to help clarify, they actually muddy the waters in 307 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,840 Speaker 1: the process by saying, like, oh well, if it's like 308 00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 1: more than a hundred yards away and you can't see it, 309 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,960 Speaker 1: then it's not really a bait pile. But he said 310 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,359 Speaker 1: that he and every other judge that has had to 311 00:17:19,640 --> 00:17:24,040 Speaker 1: rule on baiting cases, which they do, um that they 312 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,560 Speaker 1: pretty much say, look, man, if if like, if if 313 00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 1: at all you can like see where that deer or 314 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: whatever it is that you're hunting is in that zone 315 00:17:32,119 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: of that bait pile, like, we're gonna call it baton. 316 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,480 Speaker 1: We're gonna call it what it is. If it's on 317 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: the other side of a ridge from you, we're not 318 00:17:39,480 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: gonna call it baton, but a hay biale a hundred 319 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: yards away, which is what someone wrote to us to 320 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: say people do is clearly illegal, like not a natural 321 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:54,040 Speaker 1: landscape feature. Um so does that? And that brings up 322 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 1: a quick question from Mark Kenyon. A guy wrote in 323 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: to ask this, and it makes me think of it 324 00:17:58,280 --> 00:18:03,560 Speaker 1: right now. Why is in the in the white tail world, 325 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: you're a big white tail fella. They call me a 326 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 1: white tail guy. H you call me a white tail guy. 327 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: I guess yeah, you called yourself a white tail freak. 328 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 1: I think one time. So so Mark, like if you 329 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,640 Speaker 1: don't know it, like if you dig, if you dig 330 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 1: on white tails and just all things white tails. Marks, Uh. 331 00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:24,359 Speaker 1: Wired Hunt podcast is what you ought to be listening 332 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:28,119 Speaker 1: to because Marco's way beyond and we even get close 333 00:18:28,160 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: to when it comes to talking about white tails, which 334 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,680 Speaker 1: is what you know. It's America's hunting this animal right. 335 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: But a question that I would like you to take on, 336 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 1: Mark at Guy wrote in and say, why is in 337 00:18:40,880 --> 00:18:45,639 Speaker 1: some circles, why is bait bad? Food plots are not bad? Yeah, 338 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: that's something you've gotta have been asked a thousands. Yeah, yeah, 339 00:18:48,840 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: it's a big thing. People talk. People that don't like 340 00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 1: bait haters like to pose that question a lot because 341 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: there's a lot of consciensation people that don't like bait haters, 342 00:18:57,560 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of there's a lot of people 343 00:18:58,920 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 1: that hate on people that use and those guys that 344 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 1: do bait. I like to say, well, you're a hypocrite 345 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:09,159 Speaker 1: because you plant food plots, so you are changing the 346 00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:11,760 Speaker 1: landscape or doing something that is attracting deer away from 347 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: their natural patterns to a new place. So is it? 348 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:15,840 Speaker 1: So where do you stand on this? Are you a 349 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:18,439 Speaker 1: bait hater not a bait hater? But I'm not a 350 00:19:18,480 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 1: bait user. So I don't like debate, but my dad does. 351 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 1: So whatever, more power to you can do whatever you 352 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:27,639 Speaker 1: prefer to do. I would rather not, but I do 353 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:32,520 Speaker 1: plant food plots because for me, that is um two things. 354 00:19:32,600 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 1: Number One, with a food plot, with a habitat improvement, 355 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:38,159 Speaker 1: you're putting in a whole There's a whole lot of 356 00:19:38,160 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 1: work and thought and effort going into that. So it 357 00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:44,439 Speaker 1: feels like you're, I don't know, going through some threshold 358 00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 1: of like work put into something that I don't feel 359 00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,800 Speaker 1: like you achieved. The same was dumping a pile of corn. 360 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: Number two, You're Okay, that's not gonna resonate, that's not 361 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:54,680 Speaker 1: gonna that's just just me. I'm not trying to prove 362 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,439 Speaker 1: your point here. But um, but you're also improving the 363 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:00,480 Speaker 1: habitat you're by planning food plot, you're benefiting entire landscape, 364 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 1: an entire ecosystem. You're doing something above and beyond just 365 00:20:03,359 --> 00:20:06,639 Speaker 1: the sole purpose of shooting something. Once playing food plot 366 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,440 Speaker 1: you're improving the situation for three d sixty five days 367 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:12,640 Speaker 1: a year, for so many different animals, for so many 368 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: different things. You might take one life off that, etcetera. 369 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,199 Speaker 1: So that might be another argument for the fact that 370 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 1: they're different. Um, but if you want to say that 371 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:26,400 Speaker 1: you're changing something to bring deer in, and if that's 372 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: the only thing you're looking at, then yeah, you could 373 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:29,760 Speaker 1: say that food plots and baiting on the same You're 374 00:20:29,800 --> 00:20:35,040 Speaker 1: not hunting, just a natural, completely natural, unaltered pattern. What 375 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 1: I thought you were gonna say is that, um, it's 376 00:20:38,480 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 1: a little bit different because the size, well that too 377 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 1: well from a disease perspective, if that's another thing you 378 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 1: want to talk about, Yeah, I thought you hit me 379 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 1: with that. Yeah, that's it. That's a good point. So 380 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: an issue with baiting that a lot of people talk 381 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: about is you put something in a very small concentrated 382 00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: area that attracts a lot of deer to that same 383 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: very small concentrated area, there's a higher chance of disease 384 00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:01,760 Speaker 1: I only c w D, which is the big thing 385 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 1: of course everyone's talking about. So because of that, a 386 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:06,959 Speaker 1: lot of states of band baiting to try to reduce 387 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:08,959 Speaker 1: the chance of that spread with a food plot. Some 388 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: people will say, well, it's the same thing with the 389 00:21:10,280 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: food plot. You're pulling deer into an area, But it's 390 00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 1: just it's different. It's it's a much larger space. You're 391 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,720 Speaker 1: gonna have deer congregate around natural food sources anyways, So 392 00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,639 Speaker 1: there's only so much you can do there. So if 393 00:21:21,680 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: it's even if it's a cord raker food plot, that's 394 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:30,480 Speaker 1: still resembling a natural feeding environment versus a one yard 395 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: square section where you might have a pile of corn 396 00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: where all these noses touching all the saliva. Do any 397 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,399 Speaker 1: states come in? Is there any state that's band or 398 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:42,240 Speaker 1: try to regulate food plots? No? Why? Why? What? What's 399 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: up around? I feel like Montana addressed that, didn't they 400 00:21:46,440 --> 00:21:49,879 Speaker 1: If you if you plant specifically to harvest animals on 401 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:52,120 Speaker 1: it's based on intent, But I don't think you can 402 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,160 Speaker 1: do that. Really could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure 403 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:58,920 Speaker 1: you can'ts of waterfall, Yeah, definitely, Like you couldn't grow corn, 404 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 1: cut corn, and shoot ducks unless you have it agricultural 405 00:22:02,600 --> 00:22:04,679 Speaker 1: reason to do so. Yeah, we were talking about and 406 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 1: then we're talking about this not long ago that like 407 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,680 Speaker 1: you couldn't grow corn pick it, scatter it on the ground, right, 408 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: and hunt ducks. But in places you can grow corn 409 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 1: and leave it unpicked, but you can't knock it. And 410 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 1: it's like you can't knock it down. But it's possible 411 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,400 Speaker 1: that you could grow it and never harvest it as 412 00:22:26,400 --> 00:22:30,160 Speaker 1: long as you don't knock it down and weird. Yeah, 413 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: it's if if it if you planted it solely to 414 00:22:32,840 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 1: attract animals, then I don't think it would be legal 415 00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:38,040 Speaker 1: in Montana based on but I could be wrong. So 416 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 1: that's I said, it's based on the agricultural reason. And 417 00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 1: so like an agricultural reason could be I'm leaving that 418 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:52,159 Speaker 1: stand of corn because corn prices have fallen, or the 419 00:22:52,200 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 1: moisture level, the moisture content within the ear of corn 420 00:22:55,680 --> 00:23:01,359 Speaker 1: never got down to a harvestable percentage um, So there's 421 00:23:01,560 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 1: reasons for again, Yeah, well screw up, just leave its 422 00:23:04,760 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: standing first, spending a bunch of gas to go out 423 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,440 Speaker 1: there and cut the stuff down when I will when 424 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 1: I will have no return on my investment. Now, mark, um, 425 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 1: can you define food plot real quick? I guess a 426 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: general definition would be some type of crop planted with 427 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 1: the specific purpose of either attracting an animal to it 428 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:36,919 Speaker 1: and or supplementing nutrition. So that could be something like 429 00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:41,160 Speaker 1: clover or kale or rape or soybeans or corn or 430 00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 1: when are we anything like that? Are you? Um? Are 431 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 1: you sensitive when people bring up the comparison of food 432 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,120 Speaker 1: plots debate? No, I don't care. I mean, I under 433 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:57,560 Speaker 1: I understand the argument. Um, it doesn't hold water from me, 434 00:23:57,640 --> 00:23:59,719 Speaker 1: but I but even if it did, that's all right. 435 00:23:59,760 --> 00:24:01,360 Speaker 1: You can you can choose to see it that way. 436 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:03,879 Speaker 1: I'll I'll do my thing, you do yours. I got 437 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:05,399 Speaker 1: an our white tail, do you thing for it? I 438 00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: got another answer? Brody sketches, sketch this deal out. Uh So, 439 00:24:11,240 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: last fall in Pennsylvania, a an archery hunter was he 440 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:20,080 Speaker 1: was hunting public land, had a bunch of trail camera 441 00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:24,399 Speaker 1: setup was pretty familiar with do you already do you 442 00:24:24,440 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: already know what we're talking about? Really? Um um um? 443 00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,880 Speaker 1: It sounds like this guy's a pretty dedicated archery hunter, 444 00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: for for just from knowing you know what we've read 445 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:43,919 Speaker 1: about it. But he's hunting public land trail cameras. He 446 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 1: puts an arrow in a pretty gigantic bug, especially considering 447 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 1: it was shot in Pennsylvania, which is like a heavily 448 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:52,920 Speaker 1: hunted stage. Yeah, you could call it a big, huge 449 00:24:52,960 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 1: giant on public land in Pennsylvania. It's impressive and and 450 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania's seeing more big bucks because they went to antler 451 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: restriction a while back. But either way, he sticks an 452 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: arrow in this deer and does not find it. Um 453 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:13,080 Speaker 1: it sounds like it may have been a questionable, questionable shot. 454 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 1: No one really knows. Either way. He doesn't find the deer, 455 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: and forty one days goes by and he finds eventually, 456 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 1: you know, he kept looking for the buck, finds the 457 00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: buck forty one days later, archery season has ended. He 458 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: may have found it during rifle season. I think he did. 459 00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 1: But he puts his tag on a desiccated carcass that 460 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: have been picked over by predator. Is the only thing 461 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 1: that's left as the spy and the skull and the 462 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:51,920 Speaker 1: antlers tags, the tags the antlers, and eventually the word 463 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: gets out. The guy gets the buck measured. Pennsylvania Game 464 00:25:55,520 --> 00:25:58,800 Speaker 1: and Fish Commission confirms it as the new state record 465 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: archery kill. What do you think about that? Mark Kenyan? 466 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,600 Speaker 1: That's cool, really, But there's new state records and states 467 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: like every year. Now it seems like I can't keep tracking. 468 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 1: That's not the question. Are you not getting the question? 469 00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:18,560 Speaker 1: What's the question? Archery kill? Is it a hunter killed 470 00:26:18,640 --> 00:26:26,200 Speaker 1: record versus a found forty one days later? There is 471 00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 1: a place in the record. And I don't know. I'd 472 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:29,359 Speaker 1: like to have this guy on the show. You would 473 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: love to get this guy on the show to talk 474 00:26:30,680 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: about this, because he's like a meteorite could have fallen 475 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:38,880 Speaker 1: from the sky and that animal forty one days. But 476 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 1: then when do you set the where's the lie? I 477 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:45,119 Speaker 1: don't know. I don't know. Eight hours? Eight hours? No? 478 00:26:46,640 --> 00:26:51,239 Speaker 1: I mean if it was up kill, like what killed it? Infection? Coyotes? Right? 479 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:54,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm an interesting I have a similar situation 480 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 1: that happened to me one of the best year I 481 00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 1: ever shot. It was a poor shot, unfortunately, and then 482 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:03,720 Speaker 1: I found it was shot poor shot um. But I 483 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: thought he's gonna die. So I searched in search and 484 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: search and search and search, never found him until I 485 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 1: came back in February to shed hunt and there he 486 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 1: is right in his bedroom where he usually was. So 487 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:15,359 Speaker 1: do you act like you found did you find it 488 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,359 Speaker 1: or get it? So the way I would describe it 489 00:27:18,400 --> 00:27:21,439 Speaker 1: is that I killed him but I always say I 490 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: found him in February. So let's say that buck was 491 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: a big giant record buck. Yeah, would you turn it 492 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: in as a record buck or would you look at 493 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:35,000 Speaker 1: it on your wall and be like, damn, I made 494 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: a bad shot on that buck. So that I I 495 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 1: found that I found. I found his skull and his spine, 496 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: everything there. Got a salvage teg from the DNR, brought 497 00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: it home, and then a friend of mine had an 498 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: extra cape. He said, hey, man, that this is a 499 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 1: buck that kind of like my Holy Field deal. I 500 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: had hunted this buck for two or three years, knew 501 00:27:54,680 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: him really well, had been chasing this thing forever um 502 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,480 Speaker 1: and this whole thing happened. My friends like, man, you 503 00:27:59,520 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: have so ch like wrapped motion wrapped up in that deer. 504 00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,679 Speaker 1: You should mount him. I want to give you my cape. 505 00:28:05,119 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 1: So I thought about it. I was like, I don't know, 506 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 1: But in the end I decided to do it, and 507 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:11,120 Speaker 1: I put it on my wall so that every time 508 00:28:11,160 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 1: I walked past that thing, I always think about, never 509 00:28:15,119 --> 00:28:19,920 Speaker 1: make that mistake again, like never, don't screw up, practice more, 510 00:28:20,560 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: compose yourself. Like every little thing I can second guest 511 00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:24,880 Speaker 1: or thought through that I might have been wrong, did 512 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:28,200 Speaker 1: wrong on that evening. Now I rethink that's so it's 513 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: your it's your totem of self. Flag how's that word? Flag? Flagulation, 514 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 1: self flagellation, flagulation, So open yourself. It's a powerful it's 515 00:28:36,560 --> 00:28:39,640 Speaker 1: a powerful representation of like what was a really painful 516 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 1: like moment. It was like a high when I got 517 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: that shot this day I've been after and then the 518 00:28:44,680 --> 00:28:47,400 Speaker 1: mistake and then uh so, let's say a dude walks 519 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:49,320 Speaker 1: in and he's like, hey, you know what turns out 520 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:53,000 Speaker 1: that'd be the that's the new state record. Would you say, well, 521 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,760 Speaker 1: uh no, I'd say I don't know. I don't I 522 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:59,800 Speaker 1: don't know where that line is. I definitely wouldn't try 523 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 1: to promote as a state wreck. I wouldn't have like 524 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 1: turned it in to try to get as a state record. Now, 525 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,200 Speaker 1: this happened to my old man too, and it was 526 00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 1: not I remember it was enough days where he hit 527 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,160 Speaker 1: a deer out of his tree. It was a nice box, 528 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:15,200 Speaker 1: especially for like that that era in Michigan. He shot 529 00:29:15,200 --> 00:29:23,640 Speaker 1: a deer right below him and no exit wound. Weeks later, 530 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,160 Speaker 1: my brother Danny's walking out the rifle hunting finds the 531 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: deer um and it hadn't gone far. It's like it's 532 00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:34,760 Speaker 1: still it was in the went into a corn field, 533 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,240 Speaker 1: and we must have walked over a hundred times, walked 534 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:39,040 Speaker 1: around it, even to the point where it was so 535 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 1: baffling how we could have missed it that we entertained 536 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: this idea that he had left and then days later 537 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:46,960 Speaker 1: came back. But then when you look at the placement 538 00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:50,440 Speaker 1: of the era, that's just that's doesn't make sense. We 539 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,120 Speaker 1: just missed him, right, And I don't know he found 540 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: it weeks later, but he entered it. He entered it 541 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:57,920 Speaker 1: in if you went and looked his like commemorative box 542 00:29:57,960 --> 00:29:59,800 Speaker 1: of Michigan or whatever his name is there with that 543 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: tuck and all he did he took the head off. 544 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 1: It had to go find a cape. I remember the Winner. 545 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 1: We're out hunting rabbits. We dropped in to take a 546 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: look at that buck and there's a whole board in 547 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 1: the side of it from creators getting in there. And 548 00:30:12,120 --> 00:30:14,239 Speaker 1: I looked in there and found a possum. Denned up 549 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: in there, pulled him out by his tail and took 550 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:17,760 Speaker 1: up I still have a picture of me holding that 551 00:30:17,800 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: possum up by his tail, so he entered that buck 552 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:22,680 Speaker 1: in and not looking at it like when you're a 553 00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: little kid, you don't know you know now looking I'm like, damn, 554 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. Man. You're like, you didn't really get him. 555 00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: You found It's like a thing you found, you didn't 556 00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 1: get him. It's a really interesting question because you, I 557 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 1: guess it depends on the shot, Like if you know 558 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,320 Speaker 1: that that shot killed that deer, But is is getting 559 00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: him meaning that the killing of that deer in the 560 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: the the recovering of it in a certain timespan, or 561 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: is that killing it? And I mean, and then to 562 00:30:47,880 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: your question, you don't know when that deer died, if 563 00:30:49,880 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: it died the next day, or if it died then 564 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: and you just missed it, or if it died a 565 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,240 Speaker 1: week later, but it was because of the wound. I 566 00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,240 Speaker 1: hate I hate this whole conversation because the idea of 567 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: wounding and deer in this being a long drawn off 568 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: processes is a horrible thing that's talk about. Yeah, but 569 00:31:04,920 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: the thing that happen, so I don't like exactly it 570 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 1: doesn't happen. It does happen, So what would do I 571 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,280 Speaker 1: want to go? Okay, so picture this scenario that that 572 00:31:11,320 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 1: you're the commander of the world, and as commander of 573 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:18,080 Speaker 1: the world, it comes to you that you need to say, uh, 574 00:31:18,160 --> 00:31:24,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna put a time limit on it. Yeah, I 575 00:31:24,120 --> 00:31:30,200 Speaker 1: would say seven days. Pat here, here's my thought. Can 576 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:33,880 Speaker 1: you hear me? All right? Um? So I have a 577 00:31:33,920 --> 00:31:36,200 Speaker 1: couple of questions just to clarly, he's really going to 578 00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: decide on how he's so if this rood is the 579 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:43,040 Speaker 1: resident expert, right, so this particular dear, maybe I missed this, 580 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: But did that guy that shot that deer, like say, 581 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,080 Speaker 1: he shot that deer and killed that deer, right, but 582 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: he doesn't. I don't know how long the season is. 583 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: Maybe it's too shorter a season for this happened. But 584 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 1: this could happen in Montana where if you if you 585 00:31:57,240 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: don't recover your dear. It's not illegal to shoot another 586 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: deer and any states, but it's it's I would consider 587 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 1: it unethical. But if that guy shot another deer in 588 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 1: that deer's place, so he gets up in the tree stand, 589 00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,320 Speaker 1: he shoots that buck, he doesn't find it. In two days, 590 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 1: he goes and find it, right, another buck walks by, 591 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: arrows that buck punches his tag and puts it on 592 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:21,680 Speaker 1: that deer or now I would say that guy can 593 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:23,480 Speaker 1: claim it if he like the right thing, goes, I 594 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: killed that deer, he cuts his tag. He goes, I'm 595 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,680 Speaker 1: gonna look until I find that deer. You know what 596 00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:30,720 Speaker 1: I mean. If he was like diligent and goes, I'm 597 00:32:30,720 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 1: gonna look until I find that deer, it's like, all right, 598 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 1: he made a bad shot. He reconciled that he cut 599 00:32:35,760 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: he that's his deer. He punched his tag on it. 600 00:32:38,920 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 1: Now he looks for it, and it took him six 601 00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:43,480 Speaker 1: weeks to do it. That really sucks. But he put 602 00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:46,360 Speaker 1: in the effort. Good on him, he knew he killed it. 603 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: That's his. But if he's like the next morning, oh, 604 00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 1: a little spiker walks by and he shoots it, punches 605 00:32:51,840 --> 00:32:53,800 Speaker 1: his tag on that, and then finds that deer later 606 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:59,160 Speaker 1: exact the that's not the lad the former version happened. 607 00:32:59,320 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: It was the form revers. I don't know if he 608 00:33:00,880 --> 00:33:04,120 Speaker 1: hunted anymore. I don't know if he kept I mean, 609 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:07,000 Speaker 1: he was out during rifle season when he tagged it. 610 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 1: I believe, looking well, who knows. I'd love to have 611 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 1: this guy off. I mean, there's so many details he 612 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 1: can't clear up. But he you know, in order to 613 00:33:17,520 --> 00:33:20,720 Speaker 1: register this buck for a record, he had to put 614 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 1: a tag on it, and he tagged the skull basically. 615 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:30,160 Speaker 1: So yeah, he went above and beyond legal and ethical 616 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:36,920 Speaker 1: obligations to find the thing. But if I was commander 617 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,600 Speaker 1: of the world, it would be like, you gotta find 618 00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 1: that thing in order to register. You gotta find it 619 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,440 Speaker 1: in time to use the meat. That would be my 620 00:33:44,520 --> 00:33:53,760 Speaker 1: cut off. But I tend to agree. But again, let's 621 00:33:53,760 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: say you get a hit and you're like, man, not 622 00:34:00,400 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 1: a great hit. I'm gonna let it go overnight. It's 623 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 1: gonna get cool tonight. I'm gonna let it go over 624 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 1: tonight because I think that it's gonna give me a 625 00:34:07,560 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: better chance to find it than if I bump it. 626 00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: And then you go out and Kyle's got so. So there, 627 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,960 Speaker 1: here's a guy, he's got like a whole plan, he's 628 00:34:16,000 --> 00:34:19,080 Speaker 1: doing everything right. He goes out beyond his control. Kyleot's 629 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,840 Speaker 1: got it. I would still say. I would say to 630 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,759 Speaker 1: that too, I'm like, you got it, Yeah, you got 631 00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:28,440 Speaker 1: the buckets your It's unfortunate that that happened. You were 632 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:30,799 Speaker 1: probably aware that that was a risk. It probably rolled 633 00:34:30,800 --> 00:34:34,359 Speaker 1: through your mind based on everything you had going for you, um, 634 00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,640 Speaker 1: everything that you were dealing with, uh, your buck. Yeah, 635 00:34:38,840 --> 00:34:41,919 Speaker 1: I take back my previous declaration as commander of the world. 636 00:34:41,920 --> 00:34:45,480 Speaker 1: I like Brodie's better everybody. I want everyone to just 637 00:34:45,840 --> 00:34:49,200 Speaker 1: to just put a time stamp on it. I'm gonna 638 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:52,759 Speaker 1: say as commander that I'm talking about God putting a 639 00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: gun to your head and you saying, and he says, 640 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:59,000 Speaker 1: you have to tell me a time period forty eight hours. 641 00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:04,759 Speaker 1: With great reluctance, I would say forty eight hours because 642 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 1: I do think that you know with that that meat 643 00:35:08,480 --> 00:35:11,800 Speaker 1: aspect fits into that in most cases, barring very warm weather, 644 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:16,279 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, various snaf foods. But so maybe 645 00:35:16,320 --> 00:35:20,239 Speaker 1: I'm just unfamiliar with Pennsylvania rules. Is it because it 646 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: was a bow? Because hoping, I mean, Boot and Crockett. 647 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,360 Speaker 1: Half the things in there. Most of the world records 648 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: are pick up skulls. That's explain what that explain? Record record. 649 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: Bighorn sheep was found on that island out in Flathead. 650 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:39,120 Speaker 1: Everybody knew. I mean that sheep was pretty much high 651 00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 1: fence sheep. He's on this little island out in the 652 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 1: lake and there's a million pictures of it, and then 653 00:35:43,760 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: that sheep dies and then the state of Montana has 654 00:35:46,520 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: the new world record. Yeah yeah those sheep. Yeah, so 655 00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,120 Speaker 1: now and then now and then a bear of black 656 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,600 Speaker 1: barrel slim out there. There's a bunch of fruit trees 657 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 1: out there, and now and then a black burill swim 658 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,480 Speaker 1: out there when the fruit trees are in blossom. So 659 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:07,800 Speaker 1: imagine they do deal with some level of like stress. 660 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,279 Speaker 1: But you go out there, yeah, you just can go 661 00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:12,160 Speaker 1: out there and sort of almost walk up and you know, yeah, 662 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,239 Speaker 1: so hang out with them. So I guess I was 663 00:36:14,280 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 1: like when I saw that that's the new world record, 664 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, well, is the Bronx Zoo gonna beat 665 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:21,960 Speaker 1: that record next? Could? That's but that's that's the whole thing. 666 00:36:22,040 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: Is that hunter killed or is it found? And in Pennsylvania, 667 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 1: like a lot of states and and Buona Crockett, they 668 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: have different categories, right, like hunter killed animals and picked 669 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: up animals, even sheds, right. So I think the question 670 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: everyone's got about this buck is was it hunter killed 671 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,120 Speaker 1: or was it found? So my question, my answer to 672 00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,359 Speaker 1: that would be simple, when he walked out there, did 673 00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,960 Speaker 1: he find it? Yes, he found it? There you go, 674 00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:49,640 Speaker 1: he would the guy. He would say that he found 675 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:52,080 Speaker 1: it during rifles. He didn't recover it. He didn't recover 676 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,440 Speaker 1: it during rifles. He's he found. You can't. Yeah, you 677 00:36:54,440 --> 00:36:57,960 Speaker 1: can't recover something months later you find I mean exactly 678 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: if you were to go missing in the adrad It's uh, 679 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 1: I was recovering chopped up cars. Okay, I'm sorry, can 680 00:37:09,960 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 1: you can you can? You hand Phelps your deal? So 681 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:16,440 Speaker 1: just the argument of finding it, like we use blood, 682 00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 1: we use tracks, we use broken twigs. So he didn't 683 00:37:20,200 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: recover it, he found it. Like Remy said, there's there's 684 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 1: some key ingredients to finding a buck versus recovering a buck. 685 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:31,280 Speaker 1: And I would say he definitely found it. But Jason 686 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 1: Phelps and the whole thing, you had to put an hour, 687 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,160 Speaker 1: like you you were forced to put a time limit 688 00:37:35,200 --> 00:37:39,200 Speaker 1: on it or else you can get you know, killed 689 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,960 Speaker 1: forty eight hours, but you have to look for it 690 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 1: an all daylight hours up until that point, Like there 691 00:37:46,600 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 1: needs to be some effort involved, like when we if 692 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:49,759 Speaker 1: you want to make a bad shot, there needs be 693 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: some effort involved. So for two days, but you better 694 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:58,799 Speaker 1: spend those two days looking for it. Martin Bourbon Oh man, 695 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 1: I'm gonna back up here, because there's a lot of 696 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,040 Speaker 1: twists and turns to this thing. So as they say, 697 00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:08,040 Speaker 1: it starts to make its own gravy, that's exactly so 698 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 1: when he was so when he I'm gonna say, when 699 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:15,319 Speaker 1: he found this buck, was he actively searching for it 700 00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 1: or did he stumble upon it? That's why That's why 701 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: Jason's point. Was he reading that sign, was he you know, 702 00:38:23,280 --> 00:38:25,840 Speaker 1: going over there in his head like you know, like okay, 703 00:38:25,880 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 1: I think he might have bet it he was. He 704 00:38:31,360 --> 00:38:34,439 Speaker 1: had shot the thing, he knew it was potentially dead 705 00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 1: in the area, and I think it was a continual 706 00:38:36,520 --> 00:38:41,800 Speaker 1: process of hoping he would eventually stumble across those antlers. 707 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:44,440 Speaker 1: So he wasn't in his hunter orange during the rifle season. 708 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:48,200 Speaker 1: I don't know all the details that you know, but yeah, 709 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 1: I mean he was continuing to look for it, um, 710 00:38:53,920 --> 00:38:56,239 Speaker 1: But it's not It's not as if forty one late 711 00:38:56,360 --> 00:38:59,200 Speaker 1: days later he was thinking he was hunting that buck. 712 00:39:00,160 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: I don't think. Yeah, And to your point, I mean, 713 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 1: I mean, odds are right that that buck died as 714 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:09,319 Speaker 1: a direct relationship to being hit with that arrow, but 715 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: also could have been who knows well there's so many 716 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: there's so many unknowns. Like you said, there's so many unknowns, 717 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 1: that's a lot of time. Did somebody else put an 718 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:19,240 Speaker 1: arrow in that deer as it watered by his stand 719 00:39:19,239 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 1: and he didn't find it too? You know? I mean, yeah, 720 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,040 Speaker 1: maybe caught a little e h D in the meantime, 721 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:30,360 Speaker 1: I don't know. Yeah, it's it's it's And I'm not 722 00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,000 Speaker 1: trying to take anything away from this guy. Man. I 723 00:39:32,040 --> 00:39:33,600 Speaker 1: would like, like I said, I would love that. I 724 00:39:33,600 --> 00:39:35,440 Speaker 1: would love to chat with him because I'm just curious 725 00:39:35,480 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: his perspective on it. I'm not like, I'm not like 726 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:41,000 Speaker 1: dogging on the guy. What's the WEP just is a 727 00:39:41,040 --> 00:39:44,720 Speaker 1: really interesting situation. It's yeah, I mean, it's totally interesting topic. 728 00:39:46,840 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 1: Here's another one, motor perplexing one, and again Mark just 729 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,880 Speaker 1: has this. Sorry, I'm sorry, but it comes down to 730 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 1: Mark Kenyon. It's okay because white tails are the most 731 00:39:54,880 --> 00:39:57,880 Speaker 1: hunted species in North America, for the attention should be 732 00:39:57,880 --> 00:40:01,839 Speaker 1: on us this. I gotta tell your story. Someone someone 733 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,279 Speaker 1: walked up to me yesterday and they said, so get this. 734 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,640 Speaker 1: I was at a bar. This is someone telling you that. Yes, 735 00:40:07,719 --> 00:40:10,160 Speaker 1: someone's telling me a story. So I'm speaking as the storyteller. 736 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 1: The storyteller walks up to me and says, I was 737 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,279 Speaker 1: at this bar for a b h a pint night, 738 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 1: and uh, he saw me wearing this public landowner shirt. 739 00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:20,040 Speaker 1: The guy walks up to me, and he's confused, who 740 00:40:20,120 --> 00:40:23,399 Speaker 1: are you being right now? I'm the storyteller. You're you? 741 00:40:23,640 --> 00:40:27,800 Speaker 1: No, No No, okay, I'll be you. I'm telling a story 742 00:40:27,840 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 1: of a guy telling me a story of a story. 743 00:40:30,080 --> 00:40:32,959 Speaker 1: So it's confusing, but you you're me, okay. I am 744 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,479 Speaker 1: the person that I just talked to you yesterday. Hey, Mark, 745 00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:39,400 Speaker 1: go ahead. I was at a point. I was at 746 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,840 Speaker 1: a pint night in the up and this guy walked 747 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 1: up to me and he was he saw me wearing 748 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 1: my public landowner shirt and he says to me, hey, uh, 749 00:40:48,520 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 1: you're wearing that public landowner shirt. It'd be really cool 750 00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,919 Speaker 1: if you could get Mark Kenyan to come up here 751 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: and talk about that kind of stuff, or if you 752 00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 1: can't get him, maybe Steve Rinella Man. All right, they 753 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 1: got the ranking right. Yeah. It wasn't like when Remy 754 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,799 Speaker 1: got to be the boss gobbler. I was like, that's 755 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:07,879 Speaker 1: the first time that's ever been said. Okay, so all right, 756 00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 1: this is this is out of your comfort zone. But 757 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:15,520 Speaker 1: it's just something I heard from Brody that you just said. Yeah, Brodie, 758 00:41:15,719 --> 00:41:18,839 Speaker 1: he lay the groundwork again. Brodie, we're talking about last 759 00:41:18,920 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 1: night we talked about this is the most baffling. Okay, 760 00:41:26,040 --> 00:41:28,600 Speaker 1: the other night, Brodie sends me an article and it's 761 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: a guy I don't want to talk about who he is. 762 00:41:31,160 --> 00:41:36,759 Speaker 1: It's a guy griping about all right, it's so complicated. 763 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:44,400 Speaker 1: You can order because he's griping about um social media people. Okay, 764 00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 1: gear ambassador, gear ambassadors, how they ruin everything and they 765 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,000 Speaker 1: like to take pictures of big, huge, giant trout. And 766 00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:55,040 Speaker 1: he knows the truth that they catch these big trout 767 00:41:55,080 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 1: when they're spawning. And Brodie, who's a guy catch released 768 00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 1: trout fisherman, sends it to me annoyed about the perspective 769 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:08,080 Speaker 1: on it. And Brody brings up to me, like, why 770 00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:11,120 Speaker 1: is it that the whole world everything they fish. Everyone's 771 00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 1: always fishing the spawn. People travel great distances. This fish 772 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,720 Speaker 1: steelhead when they're in the river spawning. You fish salmon 773 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 1: in the river spawning. People plan trips to fish bluegill 774 00:42:21,080 --> 00:42:24,160 Speaker 1: off the beds. You throw a jig into a bass bed. 775 00:42:25,600 --> 00:42:28,960 Speaker 1: Everyone fishes spawning fish, but all of a sudden, like 776 00:42:29,239 --> 00:42:33,360 Speaker 1: trout piarists have gone and said that this whole huge 777 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:36,760 Speaker 1: history of people targeting fish when they congregate to spawn 778 00:42:38,400 --> 00:42:41,720 Speaker 1: is unethical if it's a brown trout. And you agree 779 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:47,279 Speaker 1: with that, Oh no, I didn't. I thought that it 780 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:49,319 Speaker 1: was an unethical practice, you know the way I was 781 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 1: saying supposedly, because I don't know. I'm just I just 782 00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,920 Speaker 1: I'm learning this. So I just taught myself to fly 783 00:42:53,960 --> 00:42:55,759 Speaker 1: fish over the last few years. I've never really been 784 00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: a big trout fisherm until just recently. I was telling 785 00:42:58,640 --> 00:43:00,919 Speaker 1: the crowd about this article I and so I was saying, 786 00:43:01,000 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 1: they were saying, this is supposed and I was looking 787 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:09,279 Speaker 1: at you, like, right, I don't know. Yeah, I got 788 00:43:09,320 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 1: the impression that came out to me. I was like, 789 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:14,680 Speaker 1: I was like, is that the case? I have? No, 790 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:16,840 Speaker 1: I have no clue, So reading that like I would, 791 00:43:17,320 --> 00:43:20,440 Speaker 1: I'm just fishing. I don't know, I don't get it. 792 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: Call him, please go ahead. Everybody's right and everybody's wrong. Okay, 793 00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 1: uh yeah, And we have certainly built up this hierarchy 794 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: of species that's nothing new. But there comes a point 795 00:43:37,800 --> 00:43:40,719 Speaker 1: where okay, So there's this river around here, it's called 796 00:43:40,719 --> 00:43:45,440 Speaker 1: the Lost tail Water Fishery below you know, below the dam, 797 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:49,480 Speaker 1: and there comes a point where you cannot hardly walk 798 00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 1: in that river, wade in that river without standing in 799 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 1: a red in a spawning bed. At the same time, 800 00:43:59,040 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: the you know, the water is eighteen inches deep and 801 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 1: you can see every single fish. I do not find 802 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 1: it ethical to then go fish for those fish because 803 00:44:11,080 --> 00:44:14,920 Speaker 1: you can you can drag him foul hook, he can 804 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:16,600 Speaker 1: hook him in the back and drag him off that 805 00:44:16,680 --> 00:44:19,920 Speaker 1: bed or flawesome. Yeah, and then they'll turn around and 806 00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:21,440 Speaker 1: go right back to that bed and sit on it. 807 00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 1: So what's the problem. The problem is, it's I mean, 808 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: it does not fishing. Okay, So when when a little kid, 809 00:44:29,239 --> 00:44:32,719 Speaker 1: if there's a down not catching. When the look kid 810 00:44:32,719 --> 00:44:34,759 Speaker 1: goes down to his mom's dock and there's a dozen 811 00:44:34,800 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 1: bluegill beds in knee eat water, and not only will 812 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 1: they feed, but they'll aggressively guard their nest, and he 813 00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,480 Speaker 1: lobs a worm into that collection of bluegill beds? Is 814 00:44:47,480 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: he is he being unethical? Let me come on, so 815 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:53,759 Speaker 1: I have a question. Yeah, I mean, and this is 816 00:44:53,840 --> 00:44:57,120 Speaker 1: the nature of this discussion, right, it's like, first of all, 817 00:44:57,360 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 1: the stuff that you Flatlanders do, I mean, who really cares? Right, right? 818 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 1: So like the crappie of the bluegill, the bass. For 819 00:45:04,680 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 1: some reason, we have us as a rocky Mountain West 820 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:10,600 Speaker 1: society have decided that that stuff just doesn't matter as 821 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:13,920 Speaker 1: much as our trout do. Um, and maybe that has 822 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,799 Speaker 1: something to do with like recovering populations. But you can 823 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:20,640 Speaker 1: talking about non native like rainbows and browns, like, first 824 00:45:20,640 --> 00:45:24,399 Speaker 1: of all, they're not disappearing anytime soon, and they don't 825 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 1: technically belong in any of these synthetics. The synthetics purely 826 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:33,000 Speaker 1: synthetic fish. Uh yeah, but so look at the freaking 827 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:36,400 Speaker 1: pike minnow right. The squaw fish, those I will not 828 00:45:36,480 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: mess with on the bed, completely native fish. There's a 829 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:47,560 Speaker 1: bounty on their heads below the Baudeville Damnado. They're endangered. 830 00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 1: You can't like like you know, so it's all I 831 00:45:51,320 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 1: did not know that. Yeah, they're in Colorado. People got 832 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,040 Speaker 1: chucking them on the bank wrote this article that gout 833 00:45:58,080 --> 00:46:01,440 Speaker 1: that we kind of all apparently read or got forwarded around. 834 00:46:01,840 --> 00:46:07,080 Speaker 1: Was referring to Brown's. Yes, that was import This is 835 00:46:07,120 --> 00:46:10,879 Speaker 1: where it makes more gravy like Steve says, well, how 836 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,759 Speaker 1: it read to me was as much as much as 837 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:16,080 Speaker 1: this guy was concerned with the ethics of ripped and 838 00:46:16,160 --> 00:46:20,319 Speaker 1: spawners off of a bed, he was more concerned with 839 00:46:20,480 --> 00:46:24,319 Speaker 1: dudes from out of state coming in and screwing up 840 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: the fishery that he guides on. So it was like, well, 841 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,560 Speaker 1: I could have been out on that spawning bed making money, right. 842 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,760 Speaker 1: You know. The other the thing that I took away 843 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:38,000 Speaker 1: from it though, was just the fact I thought the 844 00:46:38,040 --> 00:46:42,719 Speaker 1: point he was making was how people are putting ethics 845 00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: or their crossing lines to try to get famous, Like 846 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,359 Speaker 1: Instagram frightness. He was talking about how more and more 847 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:51,040 Speaker 1: people are doing these huge photo shoots with every big 848 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 1: fish because they want that huge photo and they want 849 00:46:53,200 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 1: to be on the cover of whatever they want to 850 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,359 Speaker 1: free pair of sunglasses or something. So you see people 851 00:46:57,360 --> 00:46:59,359 Speaker 1: staying around for two minutes holding the fish out of water, 852 00:46:59,480 --> 00:47:01,919 Speaker 1: or you see people in this case, he said that 853 00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:04,359 Speaker 1: they were going down a closed Stretcher river. They knew 854 00:47:04,400 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 1: it was closed, but they still went down and they 855 00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 1: had to pass signs that said I was closed. I 856 00:47:08,080 --> 00:47:10,759 Speaker 1: don't remember why I was closed or anything. That's a 857 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 1: different story that's called poaching, so that he was making 858 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:16,440 Speaker 1: that argument. I thought that people were doing things like 859 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:20,360 Speaker 1: that to get famous. The one particular fishing question was caught. 860 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:23,480 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy did all kinds of illegal stuff, 861 00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:28,200 Speaker 1: but there's like a greater picture of this, generally fishing 862 00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:33,600 Speaker 1: for spawning trout being like something you should go to health. See. 863 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:35,280 Speaker 1: I thought that he was using that as the story 864 00:47:35,320 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 1: to illustrate the larger Yeah, well it's okay, one of 865 00:47:38,080 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: the most masterful writer in the world. So I feel 866 00:47:40,800 --> 00:47:43,640 Speaker 1: that he he's got a few axes to grind. He's 867 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,560 Speaker 1: kind of in a grumpy mood. He doesn't like maybe 868 00:47:46,600 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: he's the I'm sure there's he's gonna hate this. It's 869 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:53,680 Speaker 1: probably like a fair bit of jealousy involved a little bitterness, Okay, 870 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,319 Speaker 1: And you put all these ingredients together and you get 871 00:47:56,400 --> 00:48:00,239 Speaker 1: kind of a rant. And just as he's taking talking 872 00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:04,839 Speaker 1: about the influence of social media on fishing in an 873 00:48:04,920 --> 00:48:07,840 Speaker 1: example of that would be that that you would be 874 00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:11,480 Speaker 1: so audacious as to catch a spawning trout to up 875 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:15,319 Speaker 1: your social media presence. Okay, as much as he's taking 876 00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:17,839 Speaker 1: that little iceolate example to prove a larger point, I'm 877 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:20,319 Speaker 1: doing the same thing. He did when I'm plucking out. 878 00:48:20,560 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 1: One portion of this is to say, like to declare 879 00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:30,880 Speaker 1: that you targeting a particular species of imported European fish 880 00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:36,600 Speaker 1: um during its spawn as being unethical. How how does 881 00:48:36,640 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 1: that relate to all of the fish that we all 882 00:48:38,640 --> 00:48:40,719 Speaker 1: sort of agree you do fish during the spawn and 883 00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:43,719 Speaker 1: has the gentleman that wrote that article, I'm presumably if 884 00:48:43,760 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 1: he's a fishing guide in whelming, he's a pretty seasoned angler. 885 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:52,439 Speaker 1: Presumably he's been up to Alaska or BC and fish 886 00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 1: to king in the river. There's there to lay his 887 00:48:55,960 --> 00:49:00,520 Speaker 1: eggs her eggs. Yes, the difference is, let's say you 888 00:49:00,520 --> 00:49:06,920 Speaker 1: have this catch and release fishery cat you then the 889 00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 1: fish come up and spawn, they're on their beds, they 890 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,799 Speaker 1: get through the spawning process, but then they're guarding their 891 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 1: beds um and they're not eating, but they're doing that 892 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:21,399 Speaker 1: aggressive behavior of knocking other fish off the beds or 893 00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:24,520 Speaker 1: and um. You know, and you're fishing eggs. Sometimes they're 894 00:49:24,560 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 1: trying to knock eggs off their bed other other fish's 895 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 1: eggs off their beds and um. There is a time 896 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:37,720 Speaker 1: of year where there's eight of us in this room. 897 00:49:37,800 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 1: We could walk up that river and all eight of 898 00:49:40,840 --> 00:49:47,080 Speaker 1: us could catch that exact same fish somehow, some way, 899 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,480 Speaker 1: because it's gonna go back to that bed and it's 900 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:51,360 Speaker 1: gonna sit on that bed and it's gonna do his job. 901 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,680 Speaker 1: And you know, we could stress it out to the 902 00:49:55,719 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 1: point very easily where it's gonna die. So why would 903 00:50:00,239 --> 00:50:04,120 Speaker 1: that be allowed in this catching release fishery where the 904 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,759 Speaker 1: point is to try to release them and let them 905 00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:10,000 Speaker 1: get caught again. But if you're out there fishing, presumably 906 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: not for those spawners. It's legal to be out there fishing, 907 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:18,600 Speaker 1: and you're out fishing, not targeting those particular spawners, and 908 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:21,640 Speaker 1: you're pointing at the dude who is But you're out 909 00:50:21,680 --> 00:50:25,120 Speaker 1: there fishing and you're catching pre spawned fish and you 910 00:50:25,160 --> 00:50:28,520 Speaker 1: scoop up a female that hasn't spawned yet and she 911 00:50:28,640 --> 00:50:31,879 Speaker 1: spews a bunch of eggs out in the net. Who, Like, 912 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 1: where do you draw the line? Like, if you don't 913 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 1: think you should be fishing for spawning fish, then advocate 914 00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:41,759 Speaker 1: for closing it all together, right, Like, nobody should be 915 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,560 Speaker 1: out there in that case. It doesn't matter if you 916 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,919 Speaker 1: catch them ten days before they spawn or when they're 917 00:50:46,920 --> 00:50:49,560 Speaker 1: on their bed. I don't I don't think that's wrong. Yeah, 918 00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:54,799 Speaker 1: I mean I think you are. You're correct? Um, yeah, 919 00:50:54,800 --> 00:50:57,000 Speaker 1: why we do not do that? I do not know you. 920 00:50:57,000 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't know how. We used to target the spring bullheads. 921 00:51:00,280 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 1: You know, bullheads like to spawn like spawning cavities, so 922 00:51:05,120 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: busted up sea walls hollow logs, and then they didn't 923 00:51:08,840 --> 00:51:11,319 Speaker 1: get inside and they turn around so their heads looking 924 00:51:11,320 --> 00:51:15,200 Speaker 1: out to defend the nest. We wouldn't even use a rod. 925 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,359 Speaker 1: You just go around and dingle, wrap some line around 926 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 1: your hand and dingle a little cleo against his face 927 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,520 Speaker 1: and have him grab it. To the point we sometimes 928 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:29,279 Speaker 1: dive down snorkeling mass dive down and in dingle it 929 00:51:29,280 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 1: in front of me. So that's like right now I'm 930 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 1: looking at being like, man, that was so unethical, But 931 00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:39,920 Speaker 1: I just don't just not feeling it. Yeah, I'm not 932 00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 1: feeling the guilt. I think if you're gonna try to 933 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:46,920 Speaker 1: eat the thing, fine, but if not, like I feel 934 00:51:46,960 --> 00:51:49,919 Speaker 1: like there's should It goes back to like that there's 935 00:51:49,920 --> 00:51:54,879 Speaker 1: a reasonable act, reasonable chance of failure when you eliminate 936 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:59,400 Speaker 1: all those chances of failure by being like, okay, big fish, 937 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,359 Speaker 1: ten inches of water, I can throw a rock in there. 938 00:52:02,520 --> 00:52:04,680 Speaker 1: It's gonna run away, but it's gonna come right back 939 00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 1: to that the exact same spot. I can catch this fish, 940 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:15,000 Speaker 1: Like one point, is it still fish? But maybe for 941 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 1: the guy who only gets to fish a few days 942 00:52:17,040 --> 00:52:19,360 Speaker 1: a year and he's got to get a lot of 943 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:25,200 Speaker 1: social media, like you gotta make it happen here. I 944 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:27,920 Speaker 1: gotta jump in here because I grew up like cal 945 00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,319 Speaker 1: did fishing pitching pitchfork and spawn and browns, I mean, 946 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:37,280 Speaker 1: trout fishing. You know, bass fishing wasn't a thing. And 947 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,719 Speaker 1: maybe it's just regional because you just if I was 948 00:52:41,760 --> 00:52:44,799 Speaker 1: in a lake, right and there's a stream coming into 949 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:47,640 Speaker 1: that lake, you'll see a hundred fishermen away from that. 950 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,879 Speaker 1: No one will be going and fishing those those fish 951 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 1: off their beds. It's like it's like, why don't you 952 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:55,279 Speaker 1: just go So if a fish swims up stream, whyn't 953 00:52:55,280 --> 00:52:57,880 Speaker 1: you just go pick it up and then like go 954 00:52:58,000 --> 00:53:01,799 Speaker 1: take a picture with it? Like is that fishing? Yeah? 955 00:53:02,080 --> 00:53:05,200 Speaker 1: I mean it's it's too easy. It takes out. You 956 00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,759 Speaker 1: might as well just go like buy your fish or 957 00:53:07,760 --> 00:53:09,879 Speaker 1: go like put them in a swimming pool, because those 958 00:53:10,000 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: trout aren't Like I don't know, but when I first 959 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 1: started bass fishing, I would never cast at a fish 960 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 1: that was on its bed. Ever, I didn't know that. 961 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:20,719 Speaker 1: I was like, oh, you just don't do that. We'd 962 00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:25,440 Speaker 1: go get leeches and lay them on the beds. Yeah, 963 00:53:25,480 --> 00:53:27,759 Speaker 1: I mean now I do that because I understand that 964 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:30,000 Speaker 1: that's how you fish bass. But I'm like, bass fishermen 965 00:53:30,160 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 1: must just like have they just don't care enough for 966 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:39,800 Speaker 1: whatever it's different. They're so sturdy. Yeah, you like, trout 967 00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:43,719 Speaker 1: are very fragile. It's like my parents or I grew 968 00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:46,480 Speaker 1: up this small kind of man made private lake and 969 00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 1: we stopped and you could just see that trout die fast. 970 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 1: It's very hard for trout to exist. And especially when 971 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:58,160 Speaker 1: you're talking in Montana, you're talking cutthroats or native fish. 972 00:53:58,320 --> 00:53:59,839 Speaker 1: If you see that fish on the bed, you need 973 00:53:59,840 --> 00:54:02,320 Speaker 1: those fish to have their a fighting chance. Now, fishing 974 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:05,600 Speaker 1: other places like pre spawn, most of the fish that 975 00:54:05,640 --> 00:54:07,840 Speaker 1: are on the bed, they're waiting for those eggs that 976 00:54:07,880 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 1: are laid a lot of those eggs have been fertilized, 977 00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:17,360 Speaker 1: so though they already have that fertilization, they're already ready 978 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:20,359 Speaker 1: to hatch. There that further step from the fish that's 979 00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:23,800 Speaker 1: just out in a deep swimming around. They constantly produce eggs. 980 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:26,920 Speaker 1: So for the fish that gets in the net, spews 981 00:54:26,960 --> 00:54:28,439 Speaker 1: its eggs and you let it back go, she's gonna 982 00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:33,200 Speaker 1: have just so many eggs tomorrow. Yeah, that's my with 983 00:54:33,680 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 1: have you have you guys have red shadows on the 984 00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: koy cock by the anthropologist Richard Kane Nelson. No, but 985 00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:42,360 Speaker 1: I will say, salmon, they're going to die, so you 986 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:43,839 Speaker 1: can just scoop them out of the river. I don't 987 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,279 Speaker 1: care that. That's another part of this. It's another part 988 00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,040 Speaker 1: of this. I'm gonna throw it. I feel like I've 989 00:54:48,040 --> 00:54:52,200 Speaker 1: been living in a gray area with a million different caveats. Yeah, 990 00:54:52,280 --> 00:54:53,879 Speaker 1: I love to fish for trout. I'm gonna throw. I'm 991 00:54:53,880 --> 00:54:55,919 Speaker 1: gonna throw another twist in there that we're talking about 992 00:54:56,040 --> 00:54:59,840 Speaker 1: last night. So where we live in Wisconsin, we have 993 00:54:59,840 --> 00:55:03,680 Speaker 1: the ribs that dumping in Lake Michigan, which to my knowledge, 994 00:55:04,120 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 1: by and large, the steel head that returned to those 995 00:55:07,280 --> 00:55:14,440 Speaker 1: rivers do not successfully spawn. And yet from an ethic standpoint, 996 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,840 Speaker 1: many people say, I won't fish those I won't fish 997 00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:20,880 Speaker 1: to those fish that are on their reds, even though 998 00:55:20,880 --> 00:55:24,440 Speaker 1: it's an artificially supported fishery. Artificially supported fishery and those 999 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:26,840 Speaker 1: fish aren't gonna successfully spawn. You've got those kind of 1000 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,359 Speaker 1: artificial fisheries all over the Great Lakes where it's like, yeah, man, 1001 00:55:30,400 --> 00:55:33,759 Speaker 1: we're pound these salmon and steelhead while they spawn, and 1002 00:55:33,800 --> 00:55:36,120 Speaker 1: then the state stocks a little six inch molts and 1003 00:55:36,160 --> 00:55:38,400 Speaker 1: it starts all over again. You know, So what do 1004 00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,279 Speaker 1: you think of that? I mean, I just think it's interest. 1005 00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:42,280 Speaker 1: I think it's interesting. I mean I'm not really seeing 1006 00:55:42,480 --> 00:55:46,120 Speaker 1: a from a from a resource standpoint, like yeah, I mean, 1007 00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:48,000 Speaker 1: I guess you could harassed that fish enough for two 1008 00:55:48,040 --> 00:55:50,720 Speaker 1: Remy's point. You know, if you caught it and stressed 1009 00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:52,760 Speaker 1: it out to a point that it maybe it wouldn't 1010 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:54,759 Speaker 1: return to the lake, then you're you know, you're down 1011 00:55:54,760 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 1: the fish, right. But I mean there's like, you know, 1012 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:01,080 Speaker 1: oftentimes they'll be you know, three or four six fish 1013 00:56:01,360 --> 00:56:04,439 Speaker 1: waiting in the bucket right behind those spawners that guys 1014 00:56:04,440 --> 00:56:06,759 Speaker 1: are fishing too, and you know, ten minutes later that 1015 00:56:06,760 --> 00:56:08,640 Speaker 1: fish could be pushing up on a red you know, 1016 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: right near in that same spot. So I just I 1017 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:12,600 Speaker 1: don't know, I just feel like it's a super gray area. 1018 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: And then to your point, like so all of a sudden, 1019 00:56:16,680 --> 00:56:19,040 Speaker 1: you're a kid, well of course I'll let a kid 1020 00:56:19,080 --> 00:56:21,520 Speaker 1: do that. Well, I mean, just like every little thing 1021 00:56:21,600 --> 00:56:25,120 Speaker 1: changes it, you know, I've seen it, like it gets 1022 00:56:25,200 --> 00:56:28,440 Speaker 1: so bad in some places. We would go up and 1023 00:56:28,480 --> 00:56:31,800 Speaker 1: fish the North Platte River in April when the rainbows 1024 00:56:31,800 --> 00:56:36,799 Speaker 1: are spawning hard, and uh that the local guides there 1025 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 1: would like if they saw you fishing two spawners, they're 1026 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:43,160 Speaker 1: just like scream at you. But then those same guys 1027 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:47,040 Speaker 1: there'd be like a hundred yards stretch of beds, and 1028 00:56:47,080 --> 00:56:50,000 Speaker 1: those same guys will float over top of those fish 1029 00:56:50,360 --> 00:56:52,880 Speaker 1: in their drift boat to knock them down into the 1030 00:56:52,920 --> 00:56:54,800 Speaker 1: next hole, and then they'll get out and fish for 1031 00:56:57,120 --> 00:57:01,839 Speaker 1: Why here, here's a kind of here's why I um. 1032 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:04,560 Speaker 1: I want to get back to Richard Knelson real quick 1033 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:06,200 Speaker 1: in a minute, but here's why I brood over the 1034 00:57:06,239 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: subject because, um, the foundations. Okay, the foundation of fishing 1035 00:57:15,719 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 1: is it was a food acquisition activity, right, everyone accepts that, right. 1036 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:24,080 Speaker 1: So it's like it comes out of a it comes 1037 00:57:24,080 --> 00:57:28,480 Speaker 1: out of an interplay of life and death. And to 1038 00:57:28,680 --> 00:57:33,520 Speaker 1: watch a segment, to watch a segment of fishing becomes 1039 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 1: so civilized and so sort of mechanical, where you're um 1040 00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:50,360 Speaker 1: fetishizing introduced non natives. You're establishing this whole other structure 1041 00:57:50,560 --> 00:57:54,560 Speaker 1: of it's like wrong to utilize these resources in a 1042 00:57:54,600 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 1: certain way. It's it's no longer like the goal of 1043 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,400 Speaker 1: like with hunting and fishing, the goals used to be 1044 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 1: that you would study an animal, you would study it 1045 00:58:05,000 --> 00:58:09,520 Speaker 1: and find its vulnerabilities and exploit those vulnerabilities to some extent. 1046 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:13,880 Speaker 1: And timing issues, like people like to hunt bucks during 1047 00:58:13,920 --> 00:58:17,520 Speaker 1: the rut because they don't act like they do normally. 1048 00:58:17,640 --> 00:58:21,240 Speaker 1: They lose some of their inhibitions, they travel more during 1049 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:24,240 Speaker 1: the daytime, they're more vulnerable, and that's like a whole 1050 00:58:24,280 --> 00:58:27,680 Speaker 1: culture is built around exploiting this vulnerability. But all of 1051 00:58:27,720 --> 00:58:30,320 Speaker 1: a sudden, to all of stodd get to the spot 1052 00:58:30,360 --> 00:58:34,320 Speaker 1: where where like the segment of the fishing world becomes 1053 00:58:34,360 --> 00:58:37,680 Speaker 1: so divorced from the foundational reality of what it is 1054 00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:41,280 Speaker 1: that it that it sets up this whole other bizarre structure. 1055 00:58:43,080 --> 00:58:45,160 Speaker 1: I don't think it's wrong. I just look at it 1056 00:58:45,200 --> 00:58:49,160 Speaker 1: and I brood over it. It's puzzling to me. Uh. 1057 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:51,800 Speaker 1: In Shadows on the Coya Kard, which is about the 1058 00:58:51,840 --> 00:58:56,040 Speaker 1: coy Kon people, um Richard K. Nelson spent some time 1059 00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:59,560 Speaker 1: with them, and they like to their den dig forbears. 1060 00:59:00,920 --> 00:59:03,160 Speaker 1: So their bear hunting method is you kind of get 1061 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:06,480 Speaker 1: a sense it's handed down generation generation, all the bear 1062 00:59:06,560 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 1: denning locations, and knowing that a den doesn't usually get 1063 00:59:09,560 --> 00:59:12,000 Speaker 1: used twice in a row, you kind of like keep 1064 00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:13,800 Speaker 1: a track of what den might have a bear and 1065 00:59:13,800 --> 00:59:16,120 Speaker 1: you go around the late spring and that's how you hunt. 1066 00:59:17,560 --> 00:59:21,200 Speaker 1: You dig bears out. It's unethical to just shoot a 1067 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:24,000 Speaker 1: bear walking around. Any person can do that. It takes 1068 00:59:24,000 --> 00:59:27,919 Speaker 1: a special man to go in and drag a bear 1069 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 1: up out of its den and kill it right an 1070 00:59:31,840 --> 00:59:36,160 Speaker 1: So if you went ask most people, if you if 1071 00:59:36,200 --> 00:59:37,880 Speaker 1: I went out to my buddies that I hunt with, 1072 00:59:37,960 --> 00:59:40,200 Speaker 1: I was like, oh yeah, what I do you know, 1073 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 1: I go down, I just kill him right in the den. Right, 1074 00:59:43,680 --> 00:59:49,600 Speaker 1: You'd be skewered as the epitome of unethical behavior. So 1075 00:59:49,640 --> 00:59:53,640 Speaker 1: it is, it's just like in certain cases it's so 1076 00:59:53,880 --> 01:00:01,240 Speaker 1: arbitrary and there's so much baggage at play, absolutely, and 1077 01:00:01,560 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking here, like how hypocritical I am? Right 1078 01:00:05,720 --> 01:00:08,920 Speaker 1: because I will not fish to that fish that I 1079 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:12,560 Speaker 1: can see that I know is not going to move, 1080 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:17,400 Speaker 1: because like I'm just like, well, it's a foregone conclusion. 1081 01:00:18,240 --> 01:00:22,040 Speaker 1: But when the water is all murky and muddy, and 1082 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:24,400 Speaker 1: I've been telling you for years how much I've been 1083 01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:28,720 Speaker 1: enjoying fishing for these smallmouth bass. Well, the reason they're 1084 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:32,200 Speaker 1: so susceptible to flies a flyer rod is because they've 1085 01:00:32,200 --> 01:00:35,920 Speaker 1: moved up into their spawning area. But the difference is is, 1086 01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm fishing in eight feet water that's murky, 1087 01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:42,360 Speaker 1: and I can't see them, and so for some reason, 1088 01:00:42,360 --> 01:00:46,320 Speaker 1: that's the mental difference for me is the you know, 1089 01:00:46,400 --> 01:00:50,680 Speaker 1: my percentage of being successful is in this you know, 1090 01:00:51,040 --> 01:00:56,760 Speaker 1: reasonable area for me of you know, it's still a 1091 01:00:56,800 --> 01:01:01,160 Speaker 1: game of chance and still feels sporting. Everyone has that though. 1092 01:01:01,200 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 1: I mean, Steve, if you like could have anything in 1093 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:06,120 Speaker 1: your tackle box, would dynamite be your number one choice? 1094 01:01:06,400 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 1: And you'd be like, every time I go fishing, I 1095 01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:09,720 Speaker 1: just throw a stick of jelly in there and blow 1096 01:01:09,760 --> 01:01:13,240 Speaker 1: them out of the water. You wouldn't do that, you know. 1097 01:01:13,280 --> 01:01:15,960 Speaker 1: It's because it's guaranteed. It's like fishing for a trout 1098 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:20,240 Speaker 1: on its bed is so guaranteed that it's not even sporting. 1099 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:22,280 Speaker 1: It's like your sportsman because you do it in a 1100 01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:25,280 Speaker 1: certain way, whether it's legal or not. You've got. Everybody 1101 01:01:25,280 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 1: has their own code of ethics, and it's like, Okay, 1102 01:01:27,760 --> 01:01:30,680 Speaker 1: what might be acceptable to one person isn't acceptable to another. 1103 01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:33,520 Speaker 1: But also what what's the intent behind it? If your 1104 01:01:33,520 --> 01:01:36,320 Speaker 1: intent was I just want to picture a big fish 1105 01:01:36,440 --> 01:01:38,760 Speaker 1: like dynamite, throw it in there, pull your big fish up, 1106 01:01:38,800 --> 01:01:43,720 Speaker 1: take a picture. You're like, ah, whatever, man, I see 1107 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,600 Speaker 1: what you're saying. To kill that fish. But oh we 1108 01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:48,800 Speaker 1: swam away. He's just in shock. He'll be all right. 1109 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:51,320 Speaker 1: If I thought the question was that easy, I wouldn't 1110 01:01:51,320 --> 01:01:53,800 Speaker 1: have brought it up. Yeah, it's it's one of the 1111 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 1: I don't even really know how I feel about it. 1112 01:01:56,600 --> 01:01:59,000 Speaker 1: That's a good point. It's a perfect topic for this 1113 01:01:59,040 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 1: time of here. I mean, I really gotta call on 1114 01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:03,720 Speaker 1: I think on Monday from a guy buddy of mine 1115 01:02:03,720 --> 01:02:06,320 Speaker 1: in Montana. He's like, yeah, man, when you're coming up 1116 01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 1: land a giant, we're gonna go out there. He's like, 1117 01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:13,160 Speaker 1: I feel kind of bad fishing them on their heads, 1118 01:02:13,200 --> 01:02:16,920 Speaker 1: but everybody else is really Yeah, there's the conversation you 1119 01:02:17,000 --> 01:02:19,080 Speaker 1: just had just had. Yeah, I mean it's that time 1120 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 1: of here. When I live in the Great Lakes, we'd 1121 01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 1: fish steel heads starting Thanksgiving. Sometimes depending on the water levels, 1122 01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:28,160 Speaker 1: because so a lot of times you still had to 1123 01:02:28,160 --> 01:02:30,200 Speaker 1: shoot up the rivers when the when the rain the 1124 01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:32,920 Speaker 1: fall rains came and still had to push up. But 1125 01:02:33,040 --> 01:02:37,200 Speaker 1: the whole time, the whole time, it was all just prelude. 1126 01:02:38,360 --> 01:02:42,160 Speaker 1: It was all prelude to the spawn mm hmm. And 1127 01:02:42,280 --> 01:02:47,439 Speaker 1: sitting down there at dawn and it starts to get 1128 01:02:47,520 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 1: light enough, you can start to see the reds, the cleaning, 1129 01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:52,600 Speaker 1: you know, the spawning beds. You can start to see 1130 01:02:52,640 --> 01:02:56,080 Speaker 1: that golden clean area, and all of a sudden, that 1131 01:02:56,200 --> 01:03:03,480 Speaker 1: gray shadow pulls across that. The feeling of like, dude, yes, yes, yes, yes, 1132 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:09,040 Speaker 1: it is odd, right, the feeling you'd get no one's there, 1133 01:03:09,400 --> 01:03:11,560 Speaker 1: you got the spot and you see that, just that 1134 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:14,439 Speaker 1: little shadow come out on there and move away.

Don't listen, 1234 01:08:11,400 --> 01:08:14,840 Speaker 1: they do not care. Early on in my TV career, 1235 01:08:14,920 --> 01:08:18,920 Speaker 1: they're like, yeah, I get it, but we're not making reality. 1236 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:22,200 Speaker 1: We're not marking in this Two Hunters. Early on in 1237 01:08:22,240 --> 01:08:24,120 Speaker 1: my TV career, I was trying to explain to a 1238 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 1: producer about the whole problem of not knowing what's going 1239 01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:29,760 Speaker 1: to happen next, and at one point he grew frustrated 1240 01:08:29,840 --> 01:08:32,160 Speaker 1: and he said, well, that's what animal wranglers are for. 1241 01:08:35,120 --> 01:08:38,559 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna throw up my defense for not seeing 1242 01:08:38,600 --> 01:08:41,040 Speaker 1: that movie though, because I do recall now thinking about 1243 01:08:41,080 --> 01:08:43,519 Speaker 1: it back in the day when video stores were like 1244 01:08:43,520 --> 01:08:45,840 Speaker 1: a big thing, you know, and going to get a 1245 01:08:45,920 --> 01:08:51,280 Speaker 1: video with your curtain in the back corner. That's a 1246 01:08:51,280 --> 01:08:55,360 Speaker 1: different story, begging like I passed that one and be 1247 01:08:55,400 --> 01:08:57,000 Speaker 1: on the shelf, and then like, that's the one I 1248 01:08:57,040 --> 01:08:59,200 Speaker 1: want to see The Deer Hunter. I know I'm gonna 1249 01:08:59,200 --> 01:09:01,439 Speaker 1: love that movie, just you know, going off the time. 1250 01:09:02,360 --> 01:09:03,760 Speaker 1: And then my parents would be like, I don't think 1251 01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:05,400 Speaker 1: that's a movie for you, and and and then I 1252 01:09:05,439 --> 01:09:07,280 Speaker 1: just I never I never caught back up with it. 1253 01:09:07,400 --> 01:09:12,120 Speaker 1: I never I never revealed that that secret. But yeah, 1254 01:09:12,120 --> 01:09:14,920 Speaker 1: it's stunning. I mean, it's what it's a masterpiece. And 1255 01:09:14,960 --> 01:09:17,320 Speaker 1: then check it out. Guys, guys from the you know, 1256 01:09:17,680 --> 01:09:20,920 Speaker 1: it's guys from Pennsylvania. Um. They go off to fight 1257 01:09:20,920 --> 01:09:24,920 Speaker 1: in Vietnam.

They meet up in 1259 01:09:28,120 --> 01:09:32,719 Speaker 1: a then the whole Russian Roulette. It's just like it's horrible. 1260 01:09:33,200 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 1: It is horrible, but there's some there's a reckoning, like 1261 01:09:37,120 --> 01:09:39,680 Speaker 1: what Mark will eventually have with holy Field. There's a 1262 01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,680 Speaker 1: reckoning in the end where the deer Hunter finds his 1263 01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:50,120 Speaker 1: deer and cannot do it. Oh unrelated note, Mark, what's uh, 1264 01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:53,599 Speaker 1: what's wrong with you? Guys? Like at vortex.

Yeah, 1298 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 1: we we we look out on on on the I 1299 01:11:36,280 --> 01:11:38,519 Speaker 1: guess the front of the building or where you would 1300 01:11:38,640 --> 01:11:44,439 Speaker 1: enter the building, um backs up to nature Conservancy. So yeah, 1301 01:11:44,520 --> 01:11:46,360 Speaker 1: you got Do you feel it to be unethical if 1302 01:11:46,360 --> 01:11:48,040 Speaker 1: you shot one of those turkeys out of your second 1303 01:11:48,040 --> 01:11:52,479 Speaker 1: story office building? I do, out of the second story 1304 01:11:52,479 --> 01:11:55,040 Speaker 1: office building. Yeah, I'm probably probably not gonna take that shot. 1305 01:11:55,040 --> 01:11:56,760 Speaker 1: But I've been thinking about that though lately, because I 1306 01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:58,240 Speaker 1: mean we've been seeing them there you know, they're they've 1307 01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:00,920 Speaker 1: got some regulars that come by and you get to 1308 01:12:00,920 --> 01:12:02,640 Speaker 1: know him. Not to get to know him, but I 1309 01:12:02,680 --> 01:12:05,240 Speaker 1: mean you see him regularly, and I'm like, man, you know, 1310 01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:07,519 Speaker 1: like I just don't think. And again it goes into 1311 01:12:07,560 --> 01:12:10,000 Speaker 1: those like ethics, not ethics, but just like those gray 1312 01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:12,840 Speaker 1: areas of if I was just to be turkey hunting 1313 01:12:12,880 --> 01:12:17,000 Speaker 1: in general and I came upon a turkey, i'd probably 1314 01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:19,960 Speaker 1: shoot that turkey. I don't know, because that that's the 1315 01:12:20,000 --> 01:12:23,240 Speaker 1: thing I have to say. This is like grade school. 1316 01:12:24,080 --> 01:12:26,120 Speaker 1: There's so many people in here. It's like you can 1317 01:12:26,160 --> 01:12:29,880 Speaker 1: be talking over thirteen people know what's going on. Okay, 1318 01:12:29,920 --> 01:12:31,920 Speaker 1: this is what I don't get though. Your thing with 1319 01:12:32,000 --> 01:12:35,080 Speaker 1: the trout on their spawning beds. Why can't you shoot 1320 01:12:35,080 --> 01:12:37,639 Speaker 1: a turkey in a tree? Because it's wrong? And I would. 1321 01:12:38,080 --> 01:12:41,519 Speaker 1: That's how if it's legal, I would shoot every turkey different. 1322 01:12:41,600 --> 01:12:44,360 Speaker 1: Here's your turkey hunt. Forget the calls. You sneak up 1323 01:12:44,360 --> 01:12:46,639 Speaker 1: to the bottom of the tree in the dark. As 1324 01:12:46,680 --> 01:12:49,679 Speaker 1: soon as shooting our starts. You have a little deeper 1325 01:12:49,760 --> 01:12:54,000 Speaker 1: on your watching, Paul, And when that turkey some double 1326 01:12:54,960 --> 01:12:57,880 Speaker 1: As a young man. As a young man, I attempted 1327 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,880 Speaker 1: something like that it did not work. My questions is, 1328 01:13:01,920 --> 01:13:05,719 Speaker 1: are those turkeys spotting? Why can't you shoot a turkey? 1329 01:13:07,160 --> 01:13:12,240 Speaker 1: Is different? Turkey's are majestic, noble. No. Here, this is 1330 01:13:12,280 --> 01:13:14,240 Speaker 1: where the whole thing falls apart. Here's what the whole 1331 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:16,960 Speaker 1: thing falls apart, because I do believe that there is 1332 01:13:17,000 --> 01:13:19,559 Speaker 1: a right and a wrong way to get a turkey. See, 1333 01:13:19,640 --> 01:13:22,559 Speaker 1: I just can't go. I just cannot. I will never 1334 01:13:22,600 --> 01:13:24,840 Speaker 1: in my life be talked into that. I used to 1335 01:13:24,840 --> 01:13:28,839 Speaker 1: be a bushwhacker. I used to bushwhack him, and now, 1336 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:36,200 Speaker 1: um now I'm like, Saul is it, Paul's who is it? 1337 01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:39,160 Speaker 1: Who's who's up on their Bible learning? Who got who 1338 01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:41,679 Speaker 1: gets blinded? On the way? Who the damask is? Saul 1339 01:13:41,800 --> 01:13:44,599 Speaker 1: or Paul? If not one of you guys knows this 1340 01:13:47,000 --> 01:13:48,720 Speaker 1: gets blind I don't know. Yeah. So I had my 1341 01:13:48,800 --> 01:13:55,759 Speaker 1: Damascus moment um where I stopped bushwhacking turkeys. See everyone 1342 01:13:55,800 --> 01:13:58,599 Speaker 1: that goes turkey hunting so hard, I'm like, can the shotgun? 1343 01:13:58,640 --> 01:14:02,040 Speaker 1: I'll show you how hard it is. Listen, Yeah, you 1344 01:14:03,479 --> 01:14:10,400 Speaker 1: feel a different grade turkeys one decoin ducks, right, Yeah, 1345 01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:12,880 Speaker 1: but I like the jump ducks, but it's not as 1346 01:14:12,920 --> 01:14:15,519 Speaker 1: cool as decoy them. It's just when there's so much 1347 01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:20,600 Speaker 1: more stuff and so much more effort to decoin, but 1348 01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:24,599 Speaker 1: you would never shoot a duck on the water. He's like, 1349 01:14:26,840 --> 01:14:29,639 Speaker 1: not true. I have been in situations where and there's 1350 01:14:29,800 --> 01:14:33,080 Speaker 1: a very good argument you made for it. Where I've 1351 01:14:33,080 --> 01:14:37,599 Speaker 1: been with people who said, listen, uh, I put a 1352 01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:40,479 Speaker 1: lot of time and effort into selecting my spot and 1353 01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:44,240 Speaker 1: camouflaging myself and putting out my decoys and calling. And 1354 01:14:44,240 --> 01:14:47,280 Speaker 1: I'm hunting a high pressure area. Right if I can 1355 01:14:47,320 --> 01:14:50,360 Speaker 1: do everything so right and trick the birds so much, 1356 01:14:50,360 --> 01:14:52,240 Speaker 1: I was supposed to be like, oh, I only kind 1357 01:14:52,240 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 1: of tricked them where he passed over and I shot him. 1358 01:14:56,479 --> 01:14:58,679 Speaker 1: But I went through all the work to fully trick 1359 01:14:58,760 --> 01:15:01,160 Speaker 1: him to the point where he handed in my spread. 1360 01:15:01,320 --> 01:15:03,439 Speaker 1: And it's like, oh, you're too good. You tricked him 1361 01:15:03,479 --> 01:15:06,280 Speaker 1: too much. You've now forfeited your right to shoot the duck. 1362 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:08,800 Speaker 1: But so some guys will be like, I'm gonna now 1363 01:15:08,920 --> 01:15:12,120 Speaker 1: jump it up, right. So now you're like, if you 1364 01:15:12,200 --> 01:15:15,680 Speaker 1: put yourself in the ducks position, okay, where I say 1365 01:15:15,680 --> 01:15:18,559 Speaker 1: to you, brody, I'm gonna kill you now. I could 1366 01:15:18,600 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 1: just shoot you in the head right now. I'm gonna 1367 01:15:22,200 --> 01:15:23,960 Speaker 1: shoot you in the leg and then run around and 1368 01:15:24,040 --> 01:15:25,599 Speaker 1: chase you and beat you over the hell of a gun? 1369 01:15:26,320 --> 01:15:28,720 Speaker 1: What are you gonna pick? I'll take the quick one. 1370 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 1: But that's a shooting him on the water. I think 1371 01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:36,920 Speaker 1: it's less effective. You can't break their way exactly. They dive. 1372 01:15:37,040 --> 01:15:39,240 Speaker 1: It's it's almost more you jump them up, so you 1373 01:15:39,280 --> 01:15:43,120 Speaker 1: know you'll kill him because because then he's yeah yeah, now, yeah, 1374 01:15:43,160 --> 01:15:45,280 Speaker 1: I've seen some you know, not that I was. I 1375 01:15:45,280 --> 01:15:46,840 Speaker 1: don't want to say I was on the trigger, but 1376 01:15:46,880 --> 01:15:50,080 Speaker 1: I have seen I have seen some on the water 1377 01:15:50,200 --> 01:15:52,960 Speaker 1: gimmes where everybody's kind of like, how in the world 1378 01:15:53,000 --> 01:15:55,920 Speaker 1: did that not work? Right? They almost have to aim 1379 01:15:55,960 --> 01:15:58,200 Speaker 1: below him. Yeah, that's a good point. Yeah, I'm gonna 1380 01:15:58,200 --> 01:16:03,000 Speaker 1: get back to mark from it though, Um what layout for? 1381 01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:05,320 Speaker 1: Like what's going on with new products and whatnot with 1382 01:16:05,320 --> 01:16:09,080 Speaker 1: you guys? So yeah, man, um really talking about getting 1383 01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:10,920 Speaker 1: a little job about turkeys?

Man, we got some new buyos 1385 01:16:13,640 --> 01:16:15,479 Speaker 1: that are super sweet that'd be good for turkey hunt. 1386 01:16:15,560 --> 01:16:17,000 Speaker 1: Like how does it fit? Like, what is what you 1387 01:16:17,080 --> 01:16:19,200 Speaker 1: got coming out? How does it fit in? I mean 1388 01:16:19,439 --> 01:16:23,040 Speaker 1: their new So we just like like three weeks ago 1389 01:16:23,200 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 1: we released our new I guess our new generation of 1390 01:16:26,439 --> 01:16:30,000 Speaker 1: the Viper HD buyos um. So if anybody's familiar with 1391 01:16:30,040 --> 01:16:32,320 Speaker 1: like the original Viper HD series, this is kind of 1392 01:16:32,360 --> 01:16:36,320 Speaker 1: a next evolution of those. And I mean, I guess 1393 01:16:36,439 --> 01:16:38,160 Speaker 1: for me, how works in the Turkey hunting is you 1394 01:16:38,160 --> 01:16:40,679 Speaker 1: should always have a set of binoculars whatever you're hunting. 1395 01:16:40,720 --> 01:16:41,800 Speaker 1: I had to get you know what the already my 1396 01:16:41,800 --> 01:16:43,519 Speaker 1: body Tommy Yets and it was like, do you bring 1397 01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:48,519 Speaker 1: binoculars turkey hunting? I'm like absolutely, yeah, I've been like 1398 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 1: the look at stuffing binoculars everything hunting, I'd be annoyed. 1399 01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:54,400 Speaker 1: I mean, and I have forgot my binoculars before, you know, 1400 01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:55,920 Speaker 1: getting out of the house early in the morning, and 1401 01:16:55,920 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 1: you it's like forgetting your cell phone. It's like, you're 1402 01:16:58,479 --> 01:17:02,320 Speaker 1: it's the cell phone of hunting equipment, even though I 1403 01:17:02,320 --> 01:17:04,160 Speaker 1: guess cell phones are kind of part for hunt equipment. Now, 1404 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:06,120 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. You always check in your pocket, Yeah, 1405 01:17:06,160 --> 01:17:08,360 Speaker 1: I bring them with Yeah, you have it, yeah, use it, 1406 01:17:08,479 --> 01:17:10,120 Speaker 1: keep it, keep all the time. So they're that, I mean, 1407 01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:14,800 Speaker 1: that's uh, optically there step up form factors awesome. They're 1408 01:17:14,800 --> 01:17:18,000 Speaker 1: a little bit more compact, so what are they like 1409 01:17:18,280 --> 01:17:20,519 Speaker 1: when it when it comes to are they more they're 1410 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:23,000 Speaker 1: they're less money than the Razors. Yeah, so they'd be 1411 01:17:23,040 --> 01:17:26,320 Speaker 1: kind of like a tier tier below the Razor. But 1412 01:17:26,400 --> 01:17:30,639 Speaker 1: I mean they're they're solid, biny, they're good. So I'd 1413 01:17:30,680 --> 01:17:33,080 Speaker 1: say that that's the binal that I would suggest even 1414 01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:37,439 Speaker 1: before and now, like a person who has a need 1415 01:17:37,560 --> 01:17:40,880 Speaker 1: for kind of who uses their optics in a manner 1416 01:17:40,880 --> 01:17:42,599 Speaker 1: where they kind of have that need for top tier 1417 01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:45,680 Speaker 1: optical performance but maybe don't have the budget to take on, 1418 01:17:46,160 --> 01:17:49,040 Speaker 1: you know, a top tier binal like the Razor HD. 1419 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:52,040 Speaker 1: You know you can fall back into that Viper HD 1420 01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 1: and you're still getting a very very good optic for 1421 01:17:55,120 --> 01:17:57,479 Speaker 1: your dollar.

Yeah, yeah, I mean, 1457 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:46,439 Speaker 1: and and since then now, I'm just like, I'm just 1458 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:48,800 Speaker 1: addicted to looking through them. Well, And I think that 1459 01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:50,880 Speaker 1: you when you get used to having something like that 1460 01:19:51,080 --> 01:19:53,639 Speaker 1: in the woods, like if you haven't been using binos, 1461 01:19:53,720 --> 01:19:56,519 Speaker 1: if you haven't been carrying them, which I think i'd say, 1462 01:19:56,560 --> 01:19:58,439 Speaker 1: by and large, like a lot of people do now, right, 1463 01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:00,920 Speaker 1: but I think maybe it's less common, know even you know, 1464 01:20:00,960 --> 01:20:05,360 Speaker 1: fift twenty years ago whatever, um, throwing a very non 1465 01:20:05,400 --> 01:20:10,120 Speaker 1: concrete timeline on that. But um, once you do, I 1466 01:20:10,160 --> 01:20:13,720 Speaker 1: think you realize like what you've been missing, and you 1467 01:20:13,760 --> 01:20:15,599 Speaker 1: just yeah, you can't get enough. And then you you 1468 01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:17,400 Speaker 1: realize how important they are and what you can do 1469 01:20:17,439 --> 01:20:19,000 Speaker 1: with them, like you can look at stuff, you know, 1470 01:20:19,040 --> 01:20:23,080 Speaker 1: and whether your tree stand hunting and Wisconsin or you know, 1471 01:20:23,200 --> 01:20:25,640 Speaker 1: Cuisier hunting in Arizona, man, I mean, that's it's an 1472 01:20:25,640 --> 01:20:27,680 Speaker 1: important piece to have, for sure. You hang out with 1473 01:20:27,920 --> 01:20:31,240 Speaker 1: bubbly dog dering. I was hunting with Doug one time 1474 01:20:31,920 --> 01:20:33,840 Speaker 1: and we walked up in what he calls the big woods, 1475 01:20:33,920 --> 01:20:36,320 Speaker 1: up by the wet spot, which are the two great 1476 01:20:36,360 --> 01:20:40,439 Speaker 1: names for bars um. And we get by the wet 1477 01:20:40,479 --> 01:20:42,880 Speaker 1: spot and I just like, take my binos and scan 1478 01:20:43,040 --> 01:20:47,320 Speaker 1: through the big woods and glass up the tippy tippy 1479 01:20:47,400 --> 01:20:51,040 Speaker 1: top of a turkey fan. Never in a million years 1480 01:20:51,080 --> 01:20:53,360 Speaker 1: would we would have walked in and spooked, glassed up 1481 01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:55,639 Speaker 1: that tippy top of a turkey fan, and we sat 1482 01:20:55,640 --> 01:20:59,559 Speaker 1: down and killed that bird maybe an hour later. Never 1483 01:20:59,600 --> 01:21:02,040 Speaker 1: would have never would have found that turkey. No. I mean, yeah, 1484 01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:04,080 Speaker 1: you wouldn't have killed that bird without those binos. No. 1485 01:21:04,200 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 1: I was kind of like when I saw I was 1486 01:21:06,439 --> 01:21:09,880 Speaker 1: like shocked by what I was looking at. I think 1487 01:21:09,920 --> 01:21:12,000 Speaker 1: it's like a super important thing. And I mean that's 1488 01:21:12,040 --> 01:21:13,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's just you know a good example of 1489 01:21:14,160 --> 01:21:17,120 Speaker 1: one tactic, right. You know, when you're creeping into that field, 1490 01:21:17,360 --> 01:21:21,080 Speaker 1: you know, stay back glass it, you know, before you 1491 01:21:21,120 --> 01:21:23,680 Speaker 1: expose yourself and blow the whole thing out, you know, 1492 01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:26,120 Speaker 1: and you guys obviously saw something, got an opportunity and 1493 01:21:26,160 --> 01:21:34,320 Speaker 1: capitalized on itself. I got sorry the north thing like 1494 01:21:34,360 --> 01:21:36,960 Speaker 1: speaking of I'm talking about that there should be a 1495 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:39,400 Speaker 1: bar called the wet Spot, which we discussed before. A 1496 01:21:39,479 --> 01:21:41,080 Speaker 1: guy rode in to say, like, if there was a 1497 01:21:41,080 --> 01:21:43,960 Speaker 1: bar called the bearded hen, would you go into it? 1498 01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:47,840 Speaker 1: And he also was wanted and this is a good question. 1499 01:21:48,200 --> 01:21:53,240 Speaker 1: Would most states you could kill? Like most states, a 1500 01:21:53,360 --> 01:21:59,320 Speaker 1: legal bird is a bearded bird one and one hands 1501 01:21:59,400 --> 01:22:03,200 Speaker 1: is bearded roughly. I think it's like it depends on 1502 01:22:03,320 --> 01:22:07,120 Speaker 1: areas and whatnot. Um, would you shoot a bearded him? 1503 01:22:10,040 --> 01:22:12,920 Speaker 1: Ask me that question, would bearded him? I've got one 1504 01:22:12,960 --> 01:22:15,559 Speaker 1: mounted on my wall. Shot a beard, shot a beard 1505 01:22:15,760 --> 01:22:17,400 Speaker 1: end and you knew you were shooting a beard at head. 1506 01:22:18,240 --> 01:22:22,600 Speaker 1: That's a good question. It was fall. It's just like 1507 01:22:22,720 --> 01:22:27,960 Speaker 1: beard boom, exact same minus the mountain. You shot a 1508 01:22:27,960 --> 01:22:31,000 Speaker 1: beard at ye? Really yell now that these guys have 1509 01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:35,519 Speaker 1: broke the ice and I know it's the same thing. 1510 01:22:38,200 --> 01:22:41,200 Speaker 1: But yeah, I rolled a bearded in in the spring 1511 01:22:41,439 --> 01:22:44,320 Speaker 1: in the spring, but I called this bird in and 1512 01:22:44,360 --> 01:22:46,160 Speaker 1: you know, and it's kind of you know, doing this 1513 01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:48,960 Speaker 1: turkey stuff, and a little beard poked out I'm like, 1514 01:22:48,960 --> 01:22:52,720 Speaker 1: oh cool. So you're like it's a female, but it's 1515 01:22:52,720 --> 01:22:54,519 Speaker 1: got a beard, so it's legal, you know. I mean 1516 01:22:54,560 --> 01:22:56,200 Speaker 1: at the time, it was happening pretty quick, but I 1517 01:22:56,200 --> 01:22:59,720 Speaker 1: saw that beard let it rip, and I don't know, 1518 01:22:59,720 --> 01:23:01,880 Speaker 1: I can't say that I necessarily. I mean in the fall, 1519 01:23:01,920 --> 01:23:03,439 Speaker 1: I think it's a little bit different because there, you 1520 01:23:03,439 --> 01:23:04,880 Speaker 1: know what I mean. But yeah, I mean that's that's 1521 01:23:04,920 --> 01:23:10,160 Speaker 1: what happened. See, I think it's wrong. Identified I want 1522 01:23:10,160 --> 01:23:11,960 Speaker 1: to clarify I have never shot a turkey out of 1523 01:23:12,000 --> 01:23:13,760 Speaker 1: a roost, but I also don't think it's wrong, just 1524 01:23:13,800 --> 01:23:16,720 Speaker 1: in case I'm backling, But I have no quantu You 1525 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:20,360 Speaker 1: can kill a turkey with attack hammer in your backyard. 1526 01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:26,280 Speaker 1: It's a barn animal. Man. No rules the turkeys. I 1527 01:23:26,360 --> 01:23:30,400 Speaker 1: generally fall under our states whatever the state defines as 1528 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:33,880 Speaker 1: the regulations. Yeah, you know what Eldo Leopold said about 1529 01:23:33,920 --> 01:23:40,800 Speaker 1: that no ethics is doing the right thing is watching, 1530 01:23:41,000 --> 01:23:44,840 Speaker 1: even when doing the wrong thing is legal. My god, 1531 01:23:45,000 --> 01:23:48,080 Speaker 1: I'm not saying it's wrong wrong. It's not wrong wrong. 1532 01:23:48,360 --> 01:23:50,360 Speaker 1: But if I was hunting, and I I was hunting 1533 01:23:50,400 --> 01:23:53,920 Speaker 1: spring out spring turkeys, and I and I and a 1534 01:23:54,000 --> 01:23:55,800 Speaker 1: hand came in with a beard on it. I would 1535 01:23:55,840 --> 01:23:58,360 Speaker 1: not be able to This is coming from the man 1536 01:23:58,400 --> 01:24:00,680 Speaker 1: who would who would pitch for it? Browns out of 1537 01:24:00,720 --> 01:24:04,599 Speaker 1: a train. I would not be able to harm that 1538 01:24:04,680 --> 01:24:09,519 Speaker 1: female turkey. I don't believe. Last day of long hunt 1539 01:24:10,040 --> 01:24:14,240 Speaker 1: and there's a bearded hen, I don't know what. Would 1540 01:24:14,240 --> 01:24:17,840 Speaker 1: you go into a bar named the Bearded Hen with 1541 01:24:17,880 --> 01:24:22,120 Speaker 1: a level of uncertainty? Would you bring your wife into 1542 01:24:22,160 --> 01:24:28,479 Speaker 1: a bar called the Bearded Hen? Absolutely not. That's the 1543 01:24:28,520 --> 01:24:35,800 Speaker 1: only way I would go in. Um, all right, Uh, 1544 01:24:35,920 --> 01:24:38,839 Speaker 1: We've got a lot of concluding thoughts, lots of concluding 1545 01:24:38,880 --> 01:24:44,120 Speaker 1: thoughts to go through. Um, we'll start with Brodie. Oh man, 1546 01:24:44,280 --> 01:24:47,599 Speaker 1: I'm just excited Turkey Seasons. I'm not there for the opener, 1547 01:24:47,640 --> 01:24:50,439 Speaker 1: but Colorado opened today, so I'm stoked to get back 1548 01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:53,240 Speaker 1: and go chase some turkeys and shoot him out of 1549 01:24:53,240 --> 01:25:00,120 Speaker 1: trees with a nail gun. What's what is your what 1550 01:25:00,240 --> 01:25:03,200 Speaker 1: is your actual like turkey hunt plan? Well, I got 1551 01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:05,000 Speaker 1: two tags that drew a tag and I gotten over 1552 01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:07,439 Speaker 1: the counter text. So I'll hunt the draw tag first 1553 01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:09,360 Speaker 1: and then let all the guys clear out of the 1554 01:25:09,439 --> 01:25:12,200 Speaker 1: over the counter areas, and then after get after a 1555 01:25:12,200 --> 01:25:14,479 Speaker 1: couple of weeks later, Yeah, My brother got both his 1556 01:25:14,560 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 1: turkeys today just watching said, yeah, he just did a 1557 01:25:17,920 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 1: trip and got two turkeys, so he doesn't like stretching 1558 01:25:20,240 --> 01:25:24,800 Speaker 1: the hunt out. No, you know, in some places you 1559 01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:27,120 Speaker 1: can't do that on the on the same day. You 1560 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:29,720 Speaker 1: know what I saw the other day in Arkansas, You're 1561 01:25:29,760 --> 01:25:39,120 Speaker 1: not allowed to shoot Jake's spring season. That's immoral to 1562 01:25:39,120 --> 01:25:42,599 Speaker 1: make hands. He can't shoot a Jake. Well, you know, 1563 01:25:43,280 --> 01:25:46,360 Speaker 1: we're going to Missouri tomorrow and I've been trying to 1564 01:25:46,360 --> 01:25:49,559 Speaker 1: weigh out in my head. I'm you know, I'm like, okay, yeah, 1565 01:25:49,560 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna hold out for long beard. But at what 1566 01:25:51,360 --> 01:25:53,960 Speaker 1: point do I, as my brother says, put the Jake 1567 01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:56,799 Speaker 1: breaks on one. Well, that's what's nice about having two tags. 1568 01:25:56,920 --> 01:25:59,720 Speaker 1: You can, you know, you can focus on the big 1569 01:25:59,760 --> 01:26:03,559 Speaker 1: bull and take a Jacob. They banned shooting Jake's in 1570 01:26:03,560 --> 01:26:06,679 Speaker 1: the spring. I just stumble across it, you know, looking 1571 01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:11,400 Speaker 1: at that, like on Arkansas website and they posted their 1572 01:26:11,439 --> 01:26:15,800 Speaker 1: legs and no Jake's for you listeners, that Jake is 1573 01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:19,559 Speaker 1: a it would be a one year old turkey, and 1574 01:26:19,600 --> 01:26:22,360 Speaker 1: he doesn't have spurs. He's just got little round nubs 1575 01:26:23,000 --> 01:26:24,720 Speaker 1: and his beard is like an inch or too long, 1576 01:26:25,640 --> 01:26:28,800 Speaker 1: and I'd have a few more unpunched turkey tags. If 1577 01:26:28,800 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 1: it was illegal to kill Jake's I would never shoot 1578 01:26:32,320 --> 01:26:36,880 Speaker 1: a Jake. That's where I draw the line and the 1579 01:26:37,000 --> 01:26:39,240 Speaker 1: roofs with his nail gun. And he's like, yeah, I 1580 01:26:39,320 --> 01:26:41,639 Speaker 1: only go see, I only go so low. Here a beard, 1581 01:26:41,800 --> 01:26:45,120 Speaker 1: a bearded hand, that's one thing that's just weird. But Jake, 1582 01:26:45,240 --> 01:26:47,639 Speaker 1: you know, he doesn't even have a chance to breed yet. No, 1583 01:26:47,680 --> 01:26:52,360 Speaker 1: they don't monsters, his fan his fans not totally tricked out, 1584 01:26:52,840 --> 01:26:57,200 Speaker 1: can't do a real rip and gobble. Uh was that 1585 01:26:57,200 --> 01:27:03,120 Speaker 1: that's your concluder? Yeah, Mark Kenyon been in the hot seat. Yeah, uh, 1586 01:27:03,160 --> 01:27:05,040 Speaker 1: you know, this is my first b h A rendevo 1587 01:27:05,080 --> 01:27:07,040 Speaker 1: had been at. We haven't really talked about like where 1588 01:27:07,080 --> 01:27:09,800 Speaker 1: we're at here and what's going on. But I think 1589 01:27:09,840 --> 01:27:11,920 Speaker 1: my concluding thought was just what an awesome group of 1590 01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 1: people that's here at this event. I mean, the energy 1591 01:27:14,320 --> 01:27:19,040 Speaker 1: has been really impressive. The relative youth has been surprising 1592 01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:21,360 Speaker 1: and impressing. That's maybe not surprising, but I think compared 1593 01:27:21,400 --> 01:27:24,479 Speaker 1: to other events you go to within the hunting and 1594 01:27:24,479 --> 01:27:27,840 Speaker 1: fishing world, it's it doesn't look like this. Um So 1595 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:32,240 Speaker 1: that was encouraging to see and um stoked about. It's 1596 01:27:32,400 --> 01:27:35,280 Speaker 1: just you get a lot of excitement and group like 1597 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:36,880 Speaker 1: this for the future of what we're doing here in 1598 01:27:36,920 --> 01:27:39,960 Speaker 1: the hunting and fishing and conservation world, and the future 1599 01:27:40,000 --> 01:27:42,120 Speaker 1: is bright when you look at this group. Yeah, it's 1600 01:27:42,160 --> 01:27:44,479 Speaker 1: kind of stunning to see pictures of the group and 1601 01:27:44,439 --> 01:27:48,960 Speaker 1: the age demographic defies the norm. I remember not too 1602 01:27:49,000 --> 01:27:54,639 Speaker 1: long ago i read that um in Michigan the average 1603 01:27:54,720 --> 01:27:58,800 Speaker 1: age of a person who buys a trapping license goes 1604 01:27:58,880 --> 01:28:09,280 Speaker 1: up exactly one every year, which is old tad still 1605 01:28:09,320 --> 01:28:15,000 Speaker 1: at it. It was harrowing. Can we talk about how 1606 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:19,440 Speaker 1: you're off the market? Oh yeah, all those ladies locks. 1607 01:28:21,000 --> 01:28:25,440 Speaker 1: I don't know if I could wooly mammoth ivory, yeah, 1608 01:28:25,520 --> 01:28:29,479 Speaker 1: it's not legal wooly mammoth ivory. Yeah? Is there? I 1609 01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:31,280 Speaker 1: don't know, is there now? There's like a big thing 1610 01:28:31,320 --> 01:28:33,760 Speaker 1: they want to band mammoth ivory because it's becoming like 1611 01:28:33,800 --> 01:28:36,840 Speaker 1: replacing elephant ivery. Apparently, you know, a lot of it 1612 01:28:36,840 --> 01:28:39,760 Speaker 1: depends on where it was found private land, public land. 1613 01:28:39,920 --> 01:28:43,680 Speaker 1: It's found in private land. It's like, yeah, because yeah, 1614 01:28:43,720 --> 01:28:45,600 Speaker 1: there's a lot of you know what, Brody were you 1615 01:28:45,680 --> 01:28:47,960 Speaker 1: just sent me that article, I think you did you know? Uh, 1616 01:28:48,400 --> 01:28:52,200 Speaker 1: if familiar with the Lacey I guess the Lacey Act. 1617 01:28:53,120 --> 01:28:57,320 Speaker 1: So for a listener who isn't, you're excused if you 1618 01:28:57,320 --> 01:28:59,320 Speaker 1: don't know the Lacy Act. The Lacy Act is one 1619 01:28:59,320 --> 01:29:02,200 Speaker 1: of the things that allow just too. You know, back 1620 01:29:02,200 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 1: in the early the Lacy Act is one of the 1621 01:29:05,320 --> 01:29:08,080 Speaker 1: things that allowed us to start putting an end to 1622 01:29:08,160 --> 01:29:13,920 Speaker 1: market hunting, which was decimating wildlife populations. Is it makes 1623 01:29:13,960 --> 01:29:19,639 Speaker 1: it a federal offense to move like illegally obtained wildlife 1624 01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:24,439 Speaker 1: across state lines. So if states states might have um 1625 01:29:24,760 --> 01:29:28,519 Speaker 1: lacks rules governing wildlife, but the Lacy Act allows you 1626 01:29:28,560 --> 01:29:31,519 Speaker 1: to make federal crimes out of moving things around. And 1627 01:29:31,600 --> 01:29:34,560 Speaker 1: someone will just show me an article where this is 1628 01:29:34,640 --> 01:29:38,559 Speaker 1: kind of perplexing. They're using the Lazy Act to go 1629 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:42,880 Speaker 1: after people smuggling dinosaur bones. So here you're taking an 1630 01:29:42,920 --> 01:29:45,559 Speaker 1: animal from sixty five million years ago who has a 1631 01:29:45,600 --> 01:29:50,799 Speaker 1: fossilized bone and using a contemporary wildlife trafficking law to too. 1632 01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:55,040 Speaker 1: It's a novel approach, man, how well it will hold 1633 01:29:55,080 --> 01:29:59,200 Speaker 1: up in court? It's not recognized as wildlife. When I 1634 01:29:59,240 --> 01:30:01,680 Speaker 1: called albert a first fishing game, when I found that 1635 01:30:02,080 --> 01:30:05,840 Speaker 1: buffalo skull there only a couple of hundred years old. 1636 01:30:06,840 --> 01:30:14,000 Speaker 1: He said, great buffalo is not a recognized game species. Okay, yeah, 1637 01:30:14,280 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 1: whatever you want, you find some mineralized like when you 1638 01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:22,679 Speaker 1: find a dinosaur fossil, that's right. It's just a weird deal, man, 1639 01:30:22,800 --> 01:30:24,840 Speaker 1: it's a weird deal. But what they're looking for there 1640 01:30:24,920 --> 01:30:28,080 Speaker 1: is where it was applicable is there's a lot of people, 1641 01:30:28,120 --> 01:30:32,200 Speaker 1: like right now, everybody goes to Mongolia for dinosaur fossils. 1642 01:30:32,600 --> 01:30:34,800 Speaker 1: It's like the New it would be like you know, 1643 01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:37,120 Speaker 1: it'd be like New Mexico in the nineteen thirties, right, 1644 01:30:37,160 --> 01:30:41,400 Speaker 1: It's just like it's not picked over yet. People used 1645 01:30:41,400 --> 01:30:44,080 Speaker 1: to see it in disregard it the same way you know, 1646 01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:46,360 Speaker 1: people used to not pick up Indian arrowheads. And all 1647 01:30:46,400 --> 01:30:50,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, you get enough time and separating the 1648 01:30:50,360 --> 01:30:53,360 Speaker 1: two events and it starts to become something noteworthy. So 1649 01:30:53,520 --> 01:30:57,200 Speaker 1: there's people like looting all these and there's not much 1650 01:30:57,280 --> 01:31:00,000 Speaker 1: enforcement in Mongolia. So there's people looting all these dinosaurs 1651 01:31:00,160 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 1: fossils out of Mongolian bringing them into the US, and 1652 01:31:02,720 --> 01:31:05,320 Speaker 1: they're using the Lacey Act to go after people with it, 1653 01:31:05,880 --> 01:31:09,240 Speaker 1: which I thought was an interesting approach. Uh, but aremy 1654 01:31:09,280 --> 01:31:12,679 Speaker 1: your concluder. You're married. I feel different. Yeah, it feels good. 1655 01:31:13,080 --> 01:31:15,360 Speaker 1: I think it should feel different a little bit. You know. 1656 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:18,719 Speaker 1: I like it. I'm excited about it. It's a great wedding, 1657 01:31:18,800 --> 01:31:21,720 Speaker 1: and uh, it was a lot of fun also. Uh. 1658 01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:26,439 Speaker 1: One of my final thoughts. Everyone will think that I 1659 01:31:26,479 --> 01:31:29,839 Speaker 1: hate on Turkey's mostly it's just for fun, because that's funny. 1660 01:31:29,960 --> 01:31:32,720 Speaker 1: It's funny. It's funny. It's like one of those things. 1661 01:31:32,760 --> 01:31:35,600 Speaker 1: It's like I can pick the turkey guy that's a 1662 01:31:35,640 --> 01:31:38,719 Speaker 1: fanatic about turkey and just go after him only because 1663 01:31:39,280 --> 01:31:42,840 Speaker 1: I think I've got that turkey hunter distaste from guiding 1664 01:31:42,920 --> 01:31:46,120 Speaker 1: him Montanas or guiding elk hunter so much, and these 1665 01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:49,400 Speaker 1: guys coming and going, oh yeah olk cutting, No, I've 1666 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:54,800 Speaker 1: I've got it. It's just like turkey hunting. I'm like, nah' sorry, 1667 01:31:54,960 --> 01:32:01,040 Speaker 1: I've been turkey hunting. It's nothing like they make similarities. No, 1668 01:32:01,280 --> 01:32:04,759 Speaker 1: sheep hunting. It's a lot like turkey hunting. I think 1669 01:32:04,840 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 1: what I think of turkey hunting is being like a 1670 01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:11,880 Speaker 1: little mini elk hunt because it's like it does have 1671 01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:16,000 Speaker 1: this right that there's a male and he has this 1672 01:32:16,080 --> 01:32:19,960 Speaker 1: audacious noise he makes and then there's a female and 1673 01:32:20,080 --> 01:32:23,559 Speaker 1: she has sort of a more a more tempered kind 1674 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:26,080 Speaker 1: of calm version that she makes, and you're using the 1675 01:32:26,160 --> 01:32:28,000 Speaker 1: one to bring in the other, and you sit up 1676 01:32:28,000 --> 01:32:30,400 Speaker 1: on a high spot and you're praying to hear a goble, 1677 01:32:30,479 --> 01:32:33,519 Speaker 1: just like you're praying to hear a bugle. If I 1678 01:32:33,560 --> 01:32:38,439 Speaker 1: was yeah, it's like saying elk hunting is a lot 1679 01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:40,799 Speaker 1: like well, then turkey hunting is all like pigeon hunting. 1680 01:32:41,120 --> 01:32:48,920 Speaker 1: You're like, yeah, I would never say it, right, I 1681 01:32:48,920 --> 01:32:54,320 Speaker 1: think Yanni does say it. Yeah, so yeah, but I 1682 01:32:54,360 --> 01:32:57,080 Speaker 1: see where they're coming from. I get it, But it's also, 1683 01:32:57,400 --> 01:33:00,439 Speaker 1: in my mind, two completely different things. And if anybody 1684 01:33:00,439 --> 01:33:02,120 Speaker 1: that has said that to me while I've been guiding 1685 01:33:02,200 --> 01:33:05,479 Speaker 1: them learned within a few minutes that it was not 1686 01:33:05,560 --> 01:33:09,320 Speaker 1: the same. So I'm like, all right, Like a statement 1687 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:12,000 Speaker 1: of saying the hunting of the two is similar, I 1688 01:33:12,000 --> 01:33:16,439 Speaker 1: would say that that's pretty false for obvious reasons to anybody. 1689 01:33:16,600 --> 01:33:18,960 Speaker 1: But I think when you start talking about interacting and 1690 01:33:19,000 --> 01:33:22,080 Speaker 1: calling animals, there are any other animals that I've hunted 1691 01:33:23,320 --> 01:33:26,479 Speaker 1: anywhere where you call and interact with like that. And 1692 01:33:26,520 --> 01:33:28,120 Speaker 1: I've done a little bit of duck hunting now and 1693 01:33:28,200 --> 01:33:32,759 Speaker 1: that's that gender. That's that gender specific. What calling ducks 1694 01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:34,760 Speaker 1: isn't the same thing. But that's what I'm saying. I 1695 01:33:34,760 --> 01:33:36,320 Speaker 1: don't think it's the same thing at all. You know, 1696 01:33:36,400 --> 01:33:38,240 Speaker 1: even though a lot of people get into the interaction, 1697 01:33:38,280 --> 01:33:40,920 Speaker 1: but it's still not like you're not playing the hen 1698 01:33:41,240 --> 01:33:43,080 Speaker 1: or the cow and trying to call in a bowl, 1699 01:33:43,479 --> 01:33:45,559 Speaker 1: or you could play with the gobbler or another bull 1700 01:33:45,600 --> 01:33:50,080 Speaker 1: and calling the bull. Yeah, terrain similarly to you know, 1701 01:33:50,200 --> 01:33:52,559 Speaker 1: to bring the animal over a roll to come see 1702 01:33:52,840 --> 01:33:55,160 Speaker 1: you know, you making that call. I mean, you do 1703 01:33:55,200 --> 01:33:59,920 Speaker 1: those same two exact tactics. He's gonna be like, you know, 1704 01:34:00,120 --> 01:34:04,679 Speaker 1: it's a lot like turkey hunt. I used to disagreem, 1705 01:34:04,680 --> 01:34:10,080 Speaker 1: but now I agree. Um cal, I don't know. I 1706 01:34:10,120 --> 01:34:13,120 Speaker 1: mean all all good things. That fish deal man, we've 1707 01:34:13,120 --> 01:34:17,920 Speaker 1: been over that a million times, and similar circles on 1708 01:34:18,439 --> 01:34:22,920 Speaker 1: fishing fish off their reds and yeah, it said, it's 1709 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:27,439 Speaker 1: a real interesting one. Um I had something to that. Yeah, 1710 01:34:27,479 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 1: please do. I didn't have my head set on earlier. 1711 01:34:29,600 --> 01:34:31,960 Speaker 1: We didn't have a head set. But it's kind of 1712 01:34:32,000 --> 01:34:35,800 Speaker 1: like the stocked pond. You can make an analogy with 1713 01:34:35,880 --> 01:34:39,280 Speaker 1: the stocked pond, right, like fishing the reds all of us. 1714 01:34:39,360 --> 01:34:42,160 Speaker 1: Probably that would ethnically like kind of not do it 1715 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:45,479 Speaker 1: now for trout or just whether it's ectics or just 1716 01:34:45,560 --> 01:34:47,559 Speaker 1: kind of like whatever, it's too easy. It's fishing to bucket. 1717 01:34:48,080 --> 01:34:50,000 Speaker 1: The first time you went and did it, you're probably like, 1718 01:34:50,080 --> 01:34:54,519 Speaker 1: holy shit, it's fun, you know, like, oh my god, 1719 01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:57,320 Speaker 1: you know, and then this second or third time, it's 1720 01:34:57,360 --> 01:34:59,320 Speaker 1: kind of like going back to this stocked trout pod. 1721 01:34:59,400 --> 01:35:02,320 Speaker 1: The second Yeah, all right. See that's the thing. That's 1722 01:35:02,320 --> 01:35:04,160 Speaker 1: why I feel a little bit of guilt because I 1723 01:35:04,200 --> 01:35:09,200 Speaker 1: remember um hearing about and really like exploring and trying 1724 01:35:09,240 --> 01:35:16,120 Speaker 1: to find the mythical brown trout spawn. Yeah. Yeah, because 1725 01:35:16,120 --> 01:35:18,719 Speaker 1: this is before it was a bad thing. I remember 1726 01:35:18,760 --> 01:35:23,040 Speaker 1: people like I remember reading in like guide books, you know, 1727 01:35:23,120 --> 01:35:27,280 Speaker 1: good areas to go look for spawning browns. Yeah, yeah, 1728 01:35:27,640 --> 01:35:29,600 Speaker 1: bets probably could find. Guy books told you how to 1729 01:35:29,760 --> 01:35:32,120 Speaker 1: you know, blow up Candida Geese off Damns by packing 1730 01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,640 Speaker 1: a buckshot around dynamite sticks to you know what I mean, 1731 01:35:34,720 --> 01:35:39,240 Speaker 1: build yourself a cannon. What you're gonna need. Uh. So 1732 01:35:39,320 --> 01:35:41,599 Speaker 1: that's your concluding thought. You just want to touch back 1733 01:35:41,640 --> 01:35:45,400 Speaker 1: on something earlier. Oh, I guess I'll just say thanks. 1734 01:35:45,800 --> 01:35:50,280 Speaker 1: I love these discussions. That's good and uh and yeah, 1735 01:35:50,320 --> 01:35:54,160 Speaker 1: I guess also absolutely blown away at how much this 1736 01:35:54,360 --> 01:35:57,840 Speaker 1: b h A rendevous has grown. It's crazy. We had 1737 01:35:57,840 --> 01:36:02,040 Speaker 1: those seminars this morning, nuts and I asked, h, I 1738 01:36:02,080 --> 01:36:05,760 Speaker 1: gotta I gotta introduce Remy for his Q and a 1739 01:36:06,680 --> 01:36:11,639 Speaker 1: UM and be the moderator for him. But asked out 1740 01:36:11,680 --> 01:36:17,240 Speaker 1: of the gate, how many people is this year first rendezvous? 1741 01:36:17,439 --> 01:36:20,160 Speaker 1: And I mean it had to have been over fifty 1742 01:36:20,560 --> 01:36:22,120 Speaker 1: of that rare I thought it was even more like 1743 01:36:22,240 --> 01:36:25,759 Speaker 1: eighty plus percent. There's a there's a lot of people 1744 01:36:25,760 --> 01:36:28,400 Speaker 1: in there. Surprised me. See it's four hundred and that 1745 01:36:28,520 --> 01:36:31,679 Speaker 1: had to be over three I think. Yeah. The first 1746 01:36:31,680 --> 01:36:35,040 Speaker 1: one I went to was probably six or seven years 1747 01:36:35,040 --> 01:36:37,080 Speaker 1: ago and it was at the fair ground in Missoula, 1748 01:36:38,439 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 1: and I gave a talk to like the dinner thing 1749 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:48,880 Speaker 1: and uh most maybe a hundred fifty people.

Um. 1765 01:37:50,160 --> 01:37:51,800 Speaker 1: The only thing that's kind of open my eyes is 1766 01:37:52,040 --> 01:37:54,120 Speaker 1: I'm fairly conservative. I come from a logging town, and 1767 01:37:54,160 --> 01:37:55,920 Speaker 1: then you kind of show up with people that maybe 1768 01:37:56,000 --> 01:37:57,760 Speaker 1: you don't see eye to eye with, but we're all 1769 01:37:57,760 --> 01:37:59,800 Speaker 1: here for the one thing that we love. So they're 1770 01:38:00,160 --> 01:38:03,000 Speaker 1: less taxes. You're like, and I'm gonna make a funny joke, 1771 01:38:03,040 --> 01:38:04,840 Speaker 1: you know, like the shiny puffy coats. I kind of 1772 01:38:04,880 --> 01:38:06,479 Speaker 1: make a joke like at home, I'm the guy in 1773 01:38:06,479 --> 01:38:08,920 Speaker 1: a fleece because that's old school. But yeah, I'm like, 1774 01:38:08,960 --> 01:38:10,920 Speaker 1: I've never been around so many hunters in a shiny 1775 01:38:10,920 --> 01:38:13,920 Speaker 1: puffy coat before. But it's cool because you can take that. 1776 01:38:14,479 --> 01:38:16,360 Speaker 1: And we're all here for the same reason. We all 1777 01:38:16,400 --> 01:38:17,960 Speaker 1: love to recreate on public land. We all love to 1778 01:38:18,000 --> 01:38:19,880 Speaker 1: hunt and fish on it. And for all of us 1779 01:38:19,960 --> 01:38:22,680 Speaker 1: to come together, um as a group of people with 1780 01:38:22,720 --> 01:38:25,240 Speaker 1: the one passion and be laser focused on public lands, 1781 01:38:25,240 --> 01:38:29,360 Speaker 1: is it is awesome? Um? Yeah, And I do want 1782 01:38:29,360 --> 01:38:32,560 Speaker 1: to do you? Do you feel that this? Can you 1783 01:38:32,680 --> 01:38:34,360 Speaker 1: check this out? No, it's got a first, it's got 1784 01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:36,320 Speaker 1: a first. Let you can check it out like part 1785 01:38:36,640 --> 01:38:40,320 Speaker 1: part of my jackets a little shiny. No, No, you're good. No, No, 1786 01:38:40,360 --> 01:38:43,719 Speaker 1: I'm just kidding. Remy's Remy's a jerk for shooting turkeys 1787 01:38:43,720 --> 01:38:49,759 Speaker 1: have a tree? How about bearded hands? So there's two sides, 1788 01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:51,040 Speaker 1: like and then we didn't you guys didn't even really 1789 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:53,400 Speaker 1: get into like the genetic mutation side of it, like 1790 01:38:53,400 --> 01:38:55,240 Speaker 1: maybe we should get those things out of here? Are 1791 01:38:55,240 --> 01:38:57,160 Speaker 1: they bad? I don't know if it's bad. I've just 1792 01:38:57,160 --> 01:38:59,400 Speaker 1: heard that side of the story, like it is a 1793 01:38:59,400 --> 01:39:02,240 Speaker 1: genetic mutation and we should shoot those things. I would 1794 01:39:02,280 --> 01:39:06,880 Speaker 1: say that without genetic mutations, Um, I feel like life 1795 01:39:06,920 --> 01:39:08,760 Speaker 1: would have ended a long time ago. Yeah, I mean, 1796 01:39:08,760 --> 01:39:12,960 Speaker 1: I'm I'm just saying I I wouldn't specifically target one 1797 01:39:12,960 --> 01:39:16,639 Speaker 1: of one came walking through the setup and I knew 1798 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:18,519 Speaker 1: it was a bearded him. I would probably let it go. 1799 01:39:18,640 --> 01:39:20,320 Speaker 1: But it's it's it's one of those things where you know, 1800 01:39:20,320 --> 01:39:22,840 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna pass my my own belief onto something. 1801 01:39:22,880 --> 01:39:24,040 Speaker 1: You know, if you want to shoot, it's within the 1802 01:39:24,040 --> 01:39:25,839 Speaker 1: state laws. And that kind of gets back to the 1803 01:39:25,840 --> 01:39:29,599 Speaker 1: the fishing thing, um, you know where where kel doesn't 1804 01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:32,120 Speaker 1: want to fish over over the edds, but then maybe 1805 01:39:32,120 --> 01:39:33,800 Speaker 1: my kid does because that's a different experience, and so 1806 01:39:33,840 --> 01:39:35,960 Speaker 1: I don't necessarily say we want to put laws that 1807 01:39:36,320 --> 01:39:38,880 Speaker 1: you know, cover that or blanket it for everybody. But 1808 01:39:38,960 --> 01:39:41,000 Speaker 1: then you know he's out there for the sport and 1809 01:39:41,000 --> 01:39:43,280 Speaker 1: and uh, you know the uncertainty of of hooking up 1810 01:39:43,320 --> 01:39:45,599 Speaker 1: one we're like me taking my kid. Maybe I don't 1811 01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:46,439 Speaker 1: want to do that, but I want to have the 1812 01:39:46,439 --> 01:39:48,360 Speaker 1: ability to take my kid and hook up to that fish. 1813 01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:51,040 Speaker 1: And so I think there's a and you know, you 1814 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:53,639 Speaker 1: gotta look at it through that scope of of who 1815 01:39:53,680 --> 01:39:57,640 Speaker 1: the person is and um, you know, take take it 1816 01:39:57,680 --> 01:40:01,719 Speaker 1: for what it is. When you were talking earlier about uh, 1817 01:40:01,880 --> 01:40:09,080 Speaker 1: like political spectrums, do you feel that uh, do you 1818 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:14,080 Speaker 1: feel that that people right, who who lean politically right, 1819 01:40:14,320 --> 01:40:17,040 Speaker 1: and people lean people who lean politically left. Do you 1820 01:40:17,080 --> 01:40:21,960 Speaker 1: see like in your community that people coalesce around the 1821 01:40:22,000 --> 01:40:27,559 Speaker 1: idea of supporting public lands or in particularly supporting federal 1822 01:40:27,760 --> 01:40:31,599 Speaker 1: land management agencies and sort of assisting them and and 1823 01:40:31,680 --> 01:40:35,479 Speaker 1: you know, giving them verbal support and helping them, you know, 1824 01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:39,960 Speaker 1: make decisions that allow access. But you know, do do 1825 01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:42,519 Speaker 1: you feel that there's that people are coming around this 1826 01:40:42,600 --> 01:40:44,760 Speaker 1: idea on your community or do you feel that it's 1827 01:40:44,760 --> 01:40:48,599 Speaker 1: a divisive issue in your community? In the dead center 1828 01:40:48,640 --> 01:40:51,559 Speaker 1: of Warehouser Country, you know, the biggest land management manager 1829 01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:53,559 Speaker 1: in the state of Washington, and so we don't there's 1830 01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:55,920 Speaker 1: a very select few of us that have to travel 1831 01:40:55,960 --> 01:40:57,880 Speaker 1: two hours to the east to recreate on you know, 1832 01:40:57,920 --> 01:41:00,200 Speaker 1: some federal lands. Um, we have some state owned ends 1833 01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:03,800 Speaker 1: and stuff. But so I would around home, it's more 1834 01:41:03,880 --> 01:41:07,160 Speaker 1: of interest on like how warehouses managing, not necessarily on 1835 01:41:07,160 --> 01:41:10,320 Speaker 1: on the you guys are recreating on publicly accessible land 1836 01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:12,240 Speaker 1: that's privately owned. Well, now, as long as you pay 1837 01:41:12,280 --> 01:41:15,000 Speaker 1: three and fifty bucks, you get a key. Yeah. I 1838 01:41:15,040 --> 01:41:19,360 Speaker 1: bought a hundred dollar pass for walking. Yeah. Yeah, so 1839 01:41:19,400 --> 01:41:21,760 Speaker 1: you can do that. Yeah, I mean everybody everybody finds 1840 01:41:21,800 --> 01:41:25,400 Speaker 1: it important, you know, anything that that, um, you know, 1841 01:41:25,439 --> 01:41:28,160 Speaker 1: affects them and their recreation and people are passionate about 1842 01:41:28,400 --> 01:41:30,280 Speaker 1: So we don't get a big push in my area 1843 01:41:30,439 --> 01:41:33,000 Speaker 1: for public lands besides a few of us that that 1844 01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 1: you know, routinely drive two hours eastern saying so when 1845 01:41:36,960 --> 01:41:40,920 Speaker 1: you're when you're hunting local, you're hunting warehouse warehouses or 1846 01:41:41,080 --> 01:41:46,519 Speaker 1: privately owned industrial which yeah, and that's like that too, 1847 01:41:46,680 --> 01:41:49,519 Speaker 1: is a significant thing. And I think that that's a 1848 01:41:50,960 --> 01:41:52,920 Speaker 1: I think people look at the public lands debate and 1849 01:41:53,280 --> 01:41:55,719 Speaker 1: groups like b h A that really support public lands, 1850 01:41:56,000 --> 01:41:57,840 Speaker 1: and I think other people kind of have this question, 1851 01:41:57,880 --> 01:42:00,519 Speaker 1: like like our friend Doug, who's very involved in private 1852 01:42:00,600 --> 01:42:05,080 Speaker 1: land conservation, and he'll kind of feel like he doesn't 1853 01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:06,840 Speaker 1: really say this, but I think it's sometimes he feels like, 1854 01:42:07,280 --> 01:42:09,400 Speaker 1: why all of a sudden, all this attention, Like most 1855 01:42:09,520 --> 01:42:12,880 Speaker 1: land in the country, especially in these most land's private land. 1856 01:42:12,920 --> 01:42:14,840 Speaker 1: If we're gonna get serious about conservation with it, to 1857 01:42:14,840 --> 01:42:17,400 Speaker 1: pay a lot of attention to private land conservation, that's 1858 01:42:17,400 --> 01:42:19,599 Speaker 1: where real con that's where some of the most important 1859 01:42:19,600 --> 01:42:22,679 Speaker 1: conservation work. But you know, I would say him, um, 1860 01:42:24,240 --> 01:42:26,280 Speaker 1: and I do say to him, but but there's not 1861 01:42:26,360 --> 01:42:29,080 Speaker 1: an emptiness there. I think that we have stuff in 1862 01:42:29,080 --> 01:42:32,800 Speaker 1: place to try to do that, like farm bills, CRP programs. 1863 01:42:32,880 --> 01:42:34,760 Speaker 1: I mean, there's a lot more dollars per acre that 1864 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:38,680 Speaker 1: go into private land conservation issues. But I think he 1865 01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:40,639 Speaker 1: kind of feels that, um, there's a sort of lack 1866 01:42:40,680 --> 01:42:45,360 Speaker 1: of sexiness around all that, just like the work of 1867 01:42:45,439 --> 01:42:48,439 Speaker 1: doing good wildlife work on private land. And I think 1868 01:42:48,439 --> 01:42:50,840 Speaker 1: like that there's this third area too, which is these 1869 01:42:50,840 --> 01:42:54,599 Speaker 1: sort of almost like wilderness type places, these big tree 1870 01:42:54,640 --> 01:42:59,000 Speaker 1: farms which are the size of they only land the 1871 01:42:59,040 --> 01:43:03,519 Speaker 1: size of National four Us that are you know, privately held, 1872 01:43:03,560 --> 01:43:06,080 Speaker 1: and there's a conservation question to have there too, and 1873 01:43:06,120 --> 01:43:09,240 Speaker 1: also like giving them some giving them the credit of 1874 01:43:09,280 --> 01:43:11,680 Speaker 1: allowing a public access program. They're not making tons of 1875 01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:14,479 Speaker 1: money on public access. And I think it comes back 1876 01:43:14,479 --> 01:43:16,519 Speaker 1: and maybe I'm a little off here, but it comes 1877 01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:18,679 Speaker 1: back to the reason we're so passionate about public lands 1878 01:43:18,880 --> 01:43:20,400 Speaker 1: is all eight of us in this room can end 1879 01:43:20,479 --> 01:43:23,160 Speaker 1: up at some wilderness in Colorado hunting, and so we are, 1880 01:43:23,840 --> 01:43:26,880 Speaker 1: um all concerned about the conservation on that piece of 1881 01:43:26,880 --> 01:43:30,040 Speaker 1: public land. Where a private land in Oowa, I have 1882 01:43:30,400 --> 01:43:32,040 Speaker 1: this much interest in it because I'm never gonna get 1883 01:43:32,040 --> 01:43:34,280 Speaker 1: a hunt there, even though I do care about the species. 1884 01:43:34,280 --> 01:43:36,040 Speaker 1: So I think it comes back to a little bit 1885 01:43:36,080 --> 01:43:38,360 Speaker 1: of that selfish nature that all of us in this 1886 01:43:38,439 --> 01:43:41,320 Speaker 1: room can take it and not take advantage. But we 1887 01:43:41,320 --> 01:43:43,880 Speaker 1: we have the ability to to recreate on some of 1888 01:43:43,880 --> 01:43:46,040 Speaker 1: this public land that potentially holds the animals we want 1889 01:43:46,040 --> 01:43:49,320 Speaker 1: to go pursue where that private land back east and 1890 01:43:49,560 --> 01:43:51,880 Speaker 1: it just doesn't hold anything for us, even though we 1891 01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:54,400 Speaker 1: all do care about you know, the the white tail, 1892 01:43:54,439 --> 01:43:55,960 Speaker 1: and and you know the stuff that is back there 1893 01:43:56,000 --> 01:43:58,439 Speaker 1: that that I may not you know, get the get 1894 01:43:58,439 --> 01:44:02,320 Speaker 1: the hunt that private proper. Ever, you know, uh, are 1895 01:44:02,360 --> 01:44:04,519 Speaker 1: you talking about Dog? He's got a funny story. I 1896 01:44:04,600 --> 01:44:06,400 Speaker 1: kind of hesitate to tell this. I don't want to 1897 01:44:06,400 --> 01:44:11,080 Speaker 1: get Dog in trouble. Well I'll tell it. So Dougs 1898 01:44:11,080 --> 01:44:14,160 Speaker 1: in a bar and a guy, like a local guy 1899 01:44:14,200 --> 01:44:16,760 Speaker 1: in the bar. It's like, oh, yeah, if you want 1900 01:44:16,760 --> 01:44:19,360 Speaker 1: to hunt Doug's place, you gotta be like a celebrity. 1901 01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:21,960 Speaker 1: You know, Doug won't anybody on his place, and dogs 1902 01:44:22,080 --> 01:44:25,320 Speaker 1: is half the bar. Goes, I was just hunting Dog's place, 1903 01:44:26,200 --> 01:44:28,280 Speaker 1: So that goes. Baby, You don't hunt Doug's place because 1904 01:44:28,280 --> 01:44:35,000 Speaker 1: you're an asshole. So there is Yeah, I think there 1905 01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:38,679 Speaker 1: is that, like, sure, you're doing great work, but what's 1906 01:44:38,720 --> 01:44:42,599 Speaker 1: the how's it benefit me? Um? Yeah, that's a that's 1907 01:44:42,600 --> 01:44:44,200 Speaker 1: a funny thing to bring up, that there is some 1908 01:44:44,360 --> 01:44:46,360 Speaker 1: sort of like a little bit of a selfish nature 1909 01:44:46,720 --> 01:44:50,200 Speaker 1: about public land because you're looking out for your own 1910 01:44:50,200 --> 01:44:52,759 Speaker 1: best interest. I remember saying it before that if someone 1911 01:44:52,840 --> 01:44:56,200 Speaker 1: came to me, like like with the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, 1912 01:44:56,320 --> 01:45:00,000 Speaker 1: if I had to make a deal. We're talking about 1913 01:45:00,000 --> 01:45:02,760 Speaker 1: this with John Garrick. I think if I had to 1914 01:45:02,760 --> 01:45:05,320 Speaker 1: make a deal with the devil and they said, Okay, 1915 01:45:05,320 --> 01:45:09,360 Speaker 1: here's here's the here's the story, Sonny, you never you're 1916 01:45:09,439 --> 01:45:13,720 Speaker 1: never allowed to step foot back here in exchange for 1917 01:45:13,800 --> 01:45:16,000 Speaker 1: that will never drill it, but you'll never see it again, 1918 01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:19,080 Speaker 1: or you can come here all you want. I would 1919 01:45:19,080 --> 01:45:20,680 Speaker 1: be like, well, I'll take the I'll take the I 1920 01:45:20,680 --> 01:45:24,519 Speaker 1: don't step foot on it ever again. Deal, Like, let's 1921 01:45:24,520 --> 01:45:27,320 Speaker 1: go with that one. So I think that it's not always, 1922 01:45:27,360 --> 01:45:29,240 Speaker 1: but but yeah, I think that you wind up having 1923 01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:32,599 Speaker 1: this idea um of that you do have a sense 1924 01:45:32,640 --> 01:45:34,439 Speaker 1: of ownership over and whether you're gonna use it or not. 1925 01:45:34,479 --> 01:45:36,320 Speaker 1: It feels the same way. That's why I think the 1926 01:45:36,360 --> 01:45:39,320 Speaker 1: thing that needs to happen in the conservation world is 1927 01:45:40,200 --> 01:45:44,000 Speaker 1: the sense of um and it happens in other factions, 1928 01:45:44,040 --> 01:45:47,400 Speaker 1: other cultural factions were an attack on one is an 1929 01:45:47,439 --> 01:45:49,560 Speaker 1: attack on all. But I think that a lot of 1930 01:45:49,600 --> 01:45:52,520 Speaker 1: times outdoors may tend to be very sort of myopic 1931 01:45:52,600 --> 01:45:55,439 Speaker 1: and kind of provincial in their view of that. They're 1932 01:45:55,439 --> 01:45:58,639 Speaker 1: really worried about their corner of the world, and it's 1933 01:45:58,680 --> 01:46:00,880 Speaker 1: like harder to picture. Like for me, I've never hunt 1934 01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:05,439 Speaker 1: in Nebraska, so maybe a conservation issue of Nebraska doesn't 1935 01:46:05,439 --> 01:46:08,760 Speaker 1: feel as immediate to me, right, But to try to 1936 01:46:08,800 --> 01:46:14,440 Speaker 1: foster this conservation sense where where people do they're like, oh, 1937 01:46:14,520 --> 01:46:17,559 Speaker 1: there's trouble brewing Nebraska. I don't go there, probably never 1938 01:46:17,560 --> 01:46:19,800 Speaker 1: will go there, don't have anybodies there. But I'm gonna 1939 01:46:19,800 --> 01:46:22,599 Speaker 1: come in their defense and help him out on this 1940 01:46:22,600 --> 01:46:24,720 Speaker 1: this wildlife issue, just because I'm viewing it like an 1941 01:46:24,760 --> 01:46:26,960 Speaker 1: attack on one, his attack on all. But I think 1942 01:46:26,960 --> 01:46:29,840 Speaker 1: it's super frustrating. It's gotta it's not can't only be 1943 01:46:29,920 --> 01:46:33,559 Speaker 1: a direct threat. It has to be an immediate, direct 1944 01:46:33,600 --> 01:46:36,280 Speaker 1: threat for the hunting community to get really fired up 1945 01:46:36,320 --> 01:46:42,080 Speaker 1: from what I've seen right now, let me get my 1946 01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:48,800 Speaker 1: boots on, uh Mark bourbon concluders. I got a couple one. 1947 01:46:50,000 --> 01:46:55,519 Speaker 1: My level of guilt for shooting the spirited hand is 1948 01:46:55,600 --> 01:46:57,760 Speaker 1: off the charts right now. But I put some thought 1949 01:46:57,800 --> 01:46:59,760 Speaker 1: into it because I was thinking that you got to 1950 01:47:00,000 --> 01:47:02,200 Speaker 1: feeling guilty about the beard and head, well, yeah, because 1951 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:05,120 Speaker 1: it's I felt bad because well, and actually I'll say this, 1952 01:47:05,240 --> 01:47:07,160 Speaker 1: I kind of felt bad at the moment too. But 1953 01:47:07,200 --> 01:47:11,000 Speaker 1: I put some thought into why those rules are in place, 1954 01:47:11,040 --> 01:47:14,040 Speaker 1: and I think it applies to the scenario in which 1955 01:47:14,120 --> 01:47:21,080 Speaker 1: this incident happened, where I called this burden identified with 1956 01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:25,640 Speaker 1: absolute certainty that it had a beard, Yeah, And I 1957 01:47:25,720 --> 01:47:28,880 Speaker 1: made the decision to pull the trigger based on that, 1958 01:47:29,240 --> 01:47:35,320 Speaker 1: And then upon further discovery, I was like, oh, that's 1959 01:47:35,320 --> 01:47:38,040 Speaker 1: a unique thing. Yeah, but you gotta have some marker, 1960 01:47:38,760 --> 01:47:43,760 Speaker 1: Like you can't say male or female because um, you're 1961 01:47:43,800 --> 01:47:45,640 Speaker 1: gonna invite because people are gonna be like, well, I'm 1962 01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:48,840 Speaker 1: gonna what's the best way to indicate male or femaleness? 1963 01:47:49,760 --> 01:47:53,599 Speaker 1: And someone might very reasonably say a beard because you're 1964 01:47:53,600 --> 01:47:55,720 Speaker 1: not gonna tell him look at the spurs because it's 1965 01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:58,200 Speaker 1: hard to see spurns like it's down on its foot 1966 01:47:58,200 --> 01:47:59,880 Speaker 1: and he's walking through tall grass. So you can have that. 1967 01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:02,479 Speaker 1: You can't say like, oh, you gotta wait till he 1968 01:48:02,520 --> 01:48:05,240 Speaker 1: fans out in struts and displays because a lot of 1969 01:48:05,240 --> 01:48:08,960 Speaker 1: times they don't do that, or he'll gobble. Well maybe 1970 01:48:09,000 --> 01:48:11,000 Speaker 1: he comes in quiet, so at some point. And then 1971 01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:13,519 Speaker 1: there's there's things with the head, like a seasoned turkey 1972 01:48:13,560 --> 01:48:15,800 Speaker 1: hunter will look at the head, especially in the spring, 1973 01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:19,559 Speaker 1: and know what they're looking at, but not always so 1974 01:48:20,280 --> 01:48:22,479 Speaker 1: the same way, dear, like it doesn't say well some 1975 01:48:22,520 --> 01:48:25,880 Speaker 1: states people say like a boker male, but oftentimes it's 1976 01:48:25,920 --> 01:48:28,960 Speaker 1: an antlered deer. Because you gotta go, like, what is 1977 01:48:29,000 --> 01:48:32,160 Speaker 1: the identifying feature that we're all going to agree upon? 1978 01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:35,560 Speaker 1: So the fact that one and one turkeys is masquerading 1979 01:48:35,640 --> 01:48:37,800 Speaker 1: around with the beard, I don't think it's like a 1980 01:48:39,120 --> 01:48:42,000 Speaker 1: it's a legitimate mistake to make. Right. You see, you're 1981 01:48:42,000 --> 01:48:43,559 Speaker 1: sitting there in the woods and here comes to turkey 1982 01:48:43,560 --> 01:48:45,880 Speaker 1: and also there's that beard. It's like game on most people. 1983 01:48:46,240 --> 01:48:48,479 Speaker 1: Well yeah, and that's why I'm I'm I'm almost wondering 1984 01:48:48,479 --> 01:48:50,320 Speaker 1: and I don't know right, But like like you said, 1985 01:48:50,320 --> 01:48:53,920 Speaker 1: it's an identifying feature, so that rule is put in place. 1986 01:48:54,000 --> 01:48:57,080 Speaker 1: So if something like does like that does happen, like 1987 01:48:57,680 --> 01:49:00,519 Speaker 1: that person didn't break the law right because was the 1988 01:49:00,600 --> 01:49:05,320 Speaker 1: intent was not there. Like my guess would be that 1989 01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:07,840 Speaker 1: if there was no such thing as a bearded hint, 1990 01:49:07,960 --> 01:49:11,439 Speaker 1: they'd be like, how you can only shoot you know, 1991 01:49:11,720 --> 01:49:14,840 Speaker 1: So you know that's my that's my And then my 1992 01:49:14,880 --> 01:49:18,360 Speaker 1: other concluder, so's tearing you up? Have you pitched forker 1993 01:49:18,400 --> 01:49:24,280 Speaker 1: Brown off his spawning bed regularly? And then my other 1994 01:49:24,280 --> 01:49:27,439 Speaker 1: concluder is yeah, I mean, and I'll just echo Mark 1995 01:49:27,479 --> 01:49:30,400 Speaker 1: and Cow's uh thoughts on the on the b ch 1996 01:49:30,439 --> 01:49:37,360 Speaker 1: a rendezvous, cool event, awesome like minded people. I think 1997 01:49:37,400 --> 01:49:42,800 Speaker 1: there's um a unique electricity and a unique energy and 1998 01:49:43,040 --> 01:49:47,840 Speaker 1: a strong momentum of of groups that maybe that hunt 1999 01:49:47,880 --> 01:49:50,960 Speaker 1: and fish, but maybe cross a few other boundaries. And 2000 01:49:51,160 --> 01:49:53,599 Speaker 1: uh and I think, you know, I think that momentum 2001 01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:56,200 Speaker 1: is gonna hopefully you know, carry through where people whether 2002 01:49:56,240 --> 01:49:59,320 Speaker 1: you do hunting fish or you know, enjoy public lands 2003 01:49:59,320 --> 01:50:02,880 Speaker 1: for other recrea sational purposes. You know, we can all 2004 01:50:02,880 --> 01:50:05,720 Speaker 1: agree on the same thing, that about how important they are. 2005 01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:10,360 Speaker 1: Well said, I got two concluders, no kind of one 2006 01:50:10,800 --> 01:50:12,479 Speaker 1: who was here when we were talking about all the 2007 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:18,799 Speaker 1: way different ways they um artificially inseminate and extract semen 2008 01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:21,960 Speaker 1: from dogs and whatnot. You were here, yea, yeah, yeah, 2009 01:50:22,000 --> 01:50:26,439 Speaker 1: I el Rannie and Doug a guy to listen to that, 2010 01:50:26,479 --> 01:50:29,479 Speaker 1: and wrote in how he uh when he wasn't doing 2011 01:50:29,520 --> 01:50:33,840 Speaker 1: animal and physiology studying in a veterinary school, he was 2012 01:50:33,880 --> 01:50:36,720 Speaker 1: talking about their method of horse seeman collection as they 2013 01:50:36,720 --> 01:50:39,200 Speaker 1: would have this, uh he calls it a large wooden 2014 01:50:39,240 --> 01:50:43,400 Speaker 1: contraption that the stallion would do his business too. And 2015 01:50:43,439 --> 01:50:47,320 Speaker 1: after it did his business, you would use a They 2016 01:50:47,400 --> 01:50:51,120 Speaker 1: demonstrated how to use it like a little straw, and 2017 01:50:51,160 --> 01:50:53,400 Speaker 1: you just use a little vacuum created with your own 2018 01:50:53,439 --> 01:50:58,080 Speaker 1: mouth to kind of fill that straw with the semen 2019 01:50:59,120 --> 01:51:01,759 Speaker 1: after he deposed on this, and then you've just packed 2020 01:51:01,760 --> 01:51:03,800 Speaker 1: the straw away for later years. And you say, you 2021 01:51:03,840 --> 01:51:06,240 Speaker 1: only you don't you only oversuck once, then you don't 2022 01:51:06,280 --> 01:51:09,479 Speaker 1: make that you don't make that mistake again.
