After a couple of weeks off, we needed to catch up. With Memorial Day Weekend ahead, we wanted to reflect on some of our favorite fishing trips and outdoor adventures in the past couple of years, too.

My buddy Robert Holt doesn’t really go by Robert Holt that I know of. He goes by BBT, which is short for Bobby Brown Trout. He’s a funny dude. He’s got more energy than a 6 year old with a fist full of pixie sticks. He’s a bona fide Montana trout bum but he came up with this little gadget – The Shark Tooth – and it’s caught on like crazy. He’s done all kinds of interesting things in his life, and – like I said – he’s a real character. You’ll enjoy today’s show, trust me on this.

Lawrence Euteneier is an interesting dude. He’s an accomplished fisherman. He’s a handyman and a dad. He’s on a dragon boat racing team. He invented the world’s first computer – Web4All – that automatically accommodates special requirements of its user. He’s an adventurer – he was in the first ever canoe expedition from Toronto to Prince Edward Island, that’s over 1,000 miles. Oh yeah … and he’s blind.

Good News – It’s Earth Day this week, a good reminder that We Are Stewards. New campaign out from Recycled Fish highlights that. Meanwhile US Fish & Wildlife Service launches its campaign, Climate of Conservation – 50 issues facing fish and wildlife in all 50 states as a result of climate change.

Travis Lowe is a TV production guy from Canada. Got his start running a camera for his Dad’s Friday night music show on the local cable access channel. Did some work in corporate video, which killed his soul, and he moved on to TV news. Today he’s teaching digital cinematography and running a documentary production company.

When you hear about a “professional angler” you probably think about a pro bass guy. Maybe … maybe … a pro walleye guy. But a pro crappie guy? Yep. There are a few, and the man who piloted that is Wally Marshall. Back in the 1980’s Wally Marshall won a professional crappie tournament, started garnering sponsorship support, and became the face and name behind crappie fishing around the world.

We have a very special show featuring some of the authors who are using their craft to encourage kids to get outside and get fishing. Those of us who love the outdoors know how important it is to get kids outside, and studies have shown that nothing is more effective at doing that than fishing. We’re excited to welcome authors Kirk Werner, Mike DiLorenzo and Kristine Houghtman to today’s very special Fish Schtick.

Skeet Reese is not only one of the hottest names in professional bass fishing, he’s got an amazing story.

Robert Thompson makes fishing movies, and right now, one of them – Musky Country: Zero 2 Hero – is terrorizing screens across the country on the Fly Fishing Film Tour. Robert comes from Montana by way of Michigan, he’s in Chicago now. He’s handy with a camera and tells a great story about the wack-jobs who chase Musky tales with fly rods … we’ll get some good stories out of him on today’s Fish Schtick.

Larry Nixon has fished in more than two dozen Bassmaster Classics, including winning it in 1983. He’s a millionaire in the sport of fishing through both the BASS and FLW tours, and he’s still actively fishing.
