The Conservation, Fishing, and Hunting Podcast

On this week's episode, Jim chats with Dr. Ed Ashby, Vice President of the Ashby Foundation. Ed has dedicated more than thirty years to researching and studying arrow performance and broadhead lethality on six continents. Thanks to his research, archery hunting is now legal in South Africa.

In this episode, Jim catches up with Mitch Petrie, the Outdoor Channel's VP of Programming. Their discussion topics range from learning to trap to fighting the anti-hunting movement to the hunting industry supporting conservation. They also review and analyze (with laughter) their previous episode with Matt Rinella on the Hunt Quietly Podcast (Episode 127).

In this week's episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with outdoor writer and former fishing editor of Field and Stream and Outdoor Life, Joe Cermele. Joe and I shoot the shit about a plethora of different topics including Stiper fishing, public access, and why fly fishermen "maybe" get a bad rap. It's a great episode you don't want to miss.

In this week's episode, Jim talks about arrows and broadheads with the Ranch Fairy (AKA Troy Fowler). Big surprise right? They also get into a long discussion about fishing since Troy and Jim are both diehard fishermen.

Jim Durkin is joined by Sgt. Matt Kramer of the Pennsylvania Game Commission to discuss the PA Hunter Access Program. Topics covered in their talk include the 88-year history of the program, landowner habitat improvements, and how the program has helped hunters and landowners alike.

In this episode, Jim catches up with his old hunting buddy Larry Bartlett. Jim and Larry discuss past hunts on Kodiak Island, the rising cost of air transportation, and back-country meat care. Larry is an outdoor writer, raft designer, and owner of Pristine Ventures.
