This week, Josh and Kevin have our own "fireside chat" We talk a bit about grilling, cooking wild game, including how do you like your venison cooked? medium, med rare, or fresh off the carcass, and the potential dangers of eating some game meats. We then move on to discussing, again, the new Michigan coyote hunting season and the regs associated with damage control and how its written. We then move on to talking about some recent hunts, including Josh taking out a recent guest from the podcast and how that hunt went. Kevin asks Josh about his observations so far on his new optics from Predator Thermal Optics, discussing the features of both the scanner and scope and Josh's thoughts on them. Then we talk about our thoughts on different optics thermal sensors and our thoughts on each one from 160 to 640 and 1280 in regards to what is practical vs what is affordable, and how base magnification makes a difference on effective use depending on the end users anticipated usage. Josh then asks Kevin about strategies for once our season starts back up in July, and we talk about what we expect to see in terms of sounds and what kind of reactions we expect with them having a 3 month or so "quiet time" We discuss using certain sounds, and our experiences with them and times we've heard the coyotes coming to the call, meaning having them so close you can hear them running or walking into the call. We discuss various tactics for hunting summer time in regards to terrain, and the challenges and advantages of crop fields. Then we switch gears and talk about fishing plans for this summer, then go back into talking about cooking...fish, using an air fryer vs a regular deep fryer for various foods. And lastly we finish up by talking about fishing at night, and getting back into trail riding with the kids on bikes. Little bit of everything this week THANK YOU for listening!
