Why Fish Radio Episode #22

Listen Now (mp3)

This week we discuss our absence from last week and the adventures that we were on over the past couple weeks. We talk about seizeing the moment by going out and catching big Red River Channel Cats and Brad's trip to visit our sponsor Stu McKay at Cats on the Red in Lockport, Manitoba.

We also discuss an experience of taking a kid fishing for the first time in Northern Minnesota. The kid had the time of his life and hopefully a lifelong fisherman was born.

Sorry for the delay

Sorry for being late with this week's show. We normally record the shows on Monday to be posted on Tuesday. Duty called. The weather was great and the word was that the catfish were really biting up here on the Red. So your hosts headed out to see if the reports were true. Boy were they ever. Let the pictures tell the story.

This week there is only one Brad on the show but that's ok. We had the opportunity back in February to sit down with Jason Mitchell of Mitchell's Guide Service of Devils Lake to discuss fishing in general. One of the things that we discussed that really stuck out is the day that the boys from Mitchell's Guide Service take off to take the area kids fishing for a day. This event happens this coming weekend May 22 at Woodland Resort. We thought it fitting with only one Brad on hand and this great event just around the corner that playing this interview would be only fitting.

Why Fish Radio is brought to you by Cats on the Red of Lockport, MB and Trophy Cat Adventures Red River Guide Service.

This week Brad and Brad talk about proper handling of fish. They read an excerp from a 1964 book that tell people how to handle northern pike. The book was 100% wrong by today's standards. This show explains how to handle pike, sturgeon and walleyes. It will help you care for your catch so it can safely be released to be caught again one day.
