The guys started off the show with a HUGE surprise: a visit from retiring Navy Captain Dr. John Todd Widergren. We were honored to spend some time with a 39-year veteran of our armed forces, have a bunch of fun and hear some great stories from exotic locations to crazy surgery situations, to getting seasick on an aircraft carrier, as well as a NASTY one involving a treble hook and a barracuda. Well, once the callers started chiming in, the conversation blossomed into all kinds of Navy stories – but you’ll have to listen to see how sideways the conversation got.
Capt. Dr. Widergren wasn’t our only guest, however. Capt. Paul Dozier stopped by to talk about Old School Kingfish Shootout. If you were holed up last year (understandably), you missed out on one of the most innovative, enjoyable, and critically acclaimed tournaments in recent memory. Well, it’s back this year and it’s even better. Listen in to get all the details and how you can be a part of it. He also brought in some breakfast from Buc-ee’s…so there was a little chatter about that amazing place, too.
Throughout the show, of course, the guys were talking about fishing, and specifically talked about the effects of the Nor’easter that came through. But then, Jeff made mention that somebody should put out a map of all the great fishing spots. Oh boy…did that cause a stir, along with people sending in maps of their own (check out the Facebook page for Geoff Stamm’s instant classic)!
