This week on the Outdoor Magazine radio show we kick off the month of August with lots of great conversation about hunting and fishing in Michigan and beyond.

First, I describe my latest walleye outing on Saginaw Bay. You can read more about that here.

Then RJ Meyer of the Trophy Room Taxidermy shop joins me. RJ is a professional, full time taxidermist….and he does all of my work. RJ gives us some tips on what to do with those trophy king salmon anglers are chasing on the Great Lakes right now.

Tom Campbell of Woods-n-Waternews joins me to wrap up the hour. Tom tells us about the DNR’s new Pure Michigan hunt.

We turn our attention to salmon in the second hour of this weeks show. Paul Schlafley of Riverside Charters in Manistee gives us a Lake Michigan fishing report. He also shared some proven salmon catching techniques.

Next, it’s Mark Romanack of Fishing 411 and Precision Angling. Mark talked about his upcoming trip to Ontario for pike and walleye….and gave us some tips on preparing for a Canadian adventure.

Jack Doyle of Emergency North kicks off the final hour of the show. Jack started the company to teach hunters, anglers and other outdoor enthusiasts about emergency first aid. He says that knowledge can save a life…especially in remote areas.

We wrap up the show with wild game chef Dixie Dave Minar. Dave has a unique recipe this time….it’s snapping turtle stew.

Lots of great outdoor news and information this week on Outdoor Magazine Radio. I hope you enjoy the show….
