We kick off the month of August this weekend on the Outdoor Magazine Radio show. First, outdoor writer and Michigan native Mike Gnatkowski joins me from his home in Nebraska. Mike made a visit to Michigan a couple of weeks ago for a whirlwind fishing trip. We talk about where he went and what he caught.

The second hour features a conversation about trail cameras with Bill Hahn of Jay’s Sporting Goods. Bill talks about the features to look for in this new generation of cameras including some he says are unnecessary. He also has some great advice on how to use trail cams to be more productive on your next hunting trip.

Dave James of Fish Hunter Charters joins me in the third hour. Dave is a charter captain on Lake Michigan out of Frankfort. He says the fishing has been pretty good this summer, with lots of big fish coming to the boat. Dave has some advice for anglers heading out on a charter fishing trip.

The show wraps up with Chef Dixie Dave Minar. This time dave has some suggestions on what to do with the venison left in your freezer.

The show’s a little slower pace this week, but packed with lots of great information. I hope you enjoy it.
