First things first: no Halloween dad jokes in this description. You deserve better, so we’re avoiding that nonsense… Now, down to business: it’s been a bizarre month as you know, but it got sideways again last Friday, with Capt. Kevin talking about a CRAZY sheepshead and black drum bite going on. Capt. Cory chimed in to talk about today’s fun trout…

Capt. Kirk was out doing some OSR, so Capt. Kevin and Jeff welcomed in Dave Edwards once again to sit in and drop some knowledge on everyone! Lots of topics were covered, but for some reason, everybody kept coming back to dropping their pants for one reason or another. Why, you ask? Sometimes, it’s better not to ask. And in case you forgot… VOTE “Y…

After all the nasty weather we’ve had for weeks and weeks, Capt. Kevin and the crew are still celebrating the FANTASTIC weather that’s making for some great inshore fishing. But how are things offshore…and will the trend of great weather continue? Well, that’s why you listen to the Fishing Forecast, right? Facebook…

Jeff was still hanging out with the Brits this week to handle his Jaguars duties, so Capt. Kevin and Capt. Kirk welcomed in Capt. Leon Dana to talk fishing, the start of gun season in Georgia, and a long overdue rest from all the nasty storms, wind, rain, and damage… The guys had a special treat when OS Hall of Famer Scotty “Bass” Brown checked in …

Seems like it’s been forever since we weren’t talking about continual rain or hurricanes or bad conditions or something…lousy. Well, just like the weather, times change! So, on this episode, Capt. Kevin proudly brings to you: FISHING TALK!!!!!! You’ll get the forecast, of course, and thankfully, there won’t be anything seriously nasty in it. Or wil…

Between Helene and Milton, everyone is about done with it…including the guys. Jeff checked in from London to talk with Kevin, Kirk and Capt. Ricky Poupore (who came in to fill the empty chair) about the Milton Mess as well as leftover cleanup from Helene. But like everyone else, they didn’t want to just sit around and talk about storm stuff – you c…

As you can imagine, the fallout from Hurricane Helene was still on the top of everyone’s minds. The guys had some hunting property woes to deal with, but their concerns were with the widespread devastation experienced by people across the entire southeast. Again, if you have any way to help, please do…so many people need so much help! Ed Malin and …

Now that Hurricane Helene has passed (please keep the thoughts, prayers and help coming for all those dealing with the damage and destruction), Capt. Kevin hopped on the line with Capt. Ricky, Capt. Leon and Capt. Cory to talk about the return of First Coast fishing. Listen in, because you’ll be able to pick up some nice little tips along the way! …

They wanted to spend this episode talking about what’s happening in the water and what’s coming up in the woods. Hurricane Helene had different plans, however. It was almost impossible to ignore what so many people are dealing with in the wake of the storm all the way from the Florida Gulf Coast into Kentucky. Of course, those of us on the First Co…

With Hurricane Helene bearing down on the Sunshine State, Capt. Kevin kicked things off all by his lonesome in the studio. But not to fear, Capt. Ricky soon checked in from where he was hunkered down to talk about what was, what is, and what will soon be when it comes to the storm. Of course, the most important aspect of the conversation was how He…

Thankfully, the rain FINALLY stopped, the sun returned, and the guys were able to get on the water and into the woods. There was a lot to talk about, of course, but things really picked up with special in-studio guest Brian Dufek, Southeast Regional Manager of Shimano. The fishing talk got in-depth and intense…especially when it came to discussing …

We know it’s not December. We know that Christmas is NOT, in fact, around the corner. And no, we are planning our 2025 resolutions. But with hunting season on the horizon, Capt. Kevin took some time this week to reflect on 2024, the fishing year. That theme and those memories dominated the episode…along with the forecast, of course. Facebook…

Well, when it’s raining too much to fish, and the woods are too wet to get ready…you put together big plans for a huge show! The guys were loaded for bear on this episode, welcoming in author Monte Burke to talk about some of his incredible books (see the links below to get your copies). Monte is a top-shelf storyteller, so this chat alone is worth…

Not much else to say, is there? The rain continues, so the fishing doesn’t (for the most part). However, there’s still a bunch to talk about…as you know when a bunch of captains get together. Listen in to the stories and calls, and maybe – just maybe – you can find some hope in the upcoming forecast. Facebook…

Capt. Chip Wingo joined the guys in the studio for this episode to talk about…you guessed it: THE WEATHER. The rain is bad, it’s gonna be bad, and it’s gonna be bad for a while. Brave it at your own risk! But don’t be afraid to listen…as is always the case, there was a lot of good talk about the woods, the water, and all the tasty stuff that comes …

Capt. Kevin had a full house for the first time in a little while…probably because the weather has NOT been good for fishing at all! Capt. Ricky and Capt. Cory echoed that point, but everybody acknowledged that September is traditionally not the best time of year on the water around the First Coast. However, there were stories to be told, and you c…

So Jeff was back in the studio with Capt. Kevin and Capt. Kirk, and you can tell what time of year it is by the way the conversation goes. After months of nothing but fishing, the guys are starting to split their talk time between the water and the woods, and they hit on everything from bear to crossbows to getting ready for deer season…and they ta…

It was Capt. Kevin and Capt. Ricky at the helm this week, and one look at the calendar is all it takes to see it’s tarpon time! But the question is this: is the weather going to help you or hurt you when you’re trying land one of those monsters? Tune in and find out… Facebookעל ידי Kevin Faver

With Jeff away in Georgia doing some OSR, this episode was in the capable hands of Capt. Kevin and Capt. Kirk. They had quite a bit to talk about…especially about the weather, and how unsettled it has left the waters of the area. Jeff did call in, along with a bunch of great callers, including Trina and Caroline, who shared some great info on the Y…

Well what do ya know! Guess who decided to rejoin Capt. Kevin and Capt. Cory…Hollywood himself, Capt. Ricky! So, with the gang all back in the studio, it was time to get down to the nitty gritty of August fishing on the First Coast. Tune in to hear from the guys, along with Capt. Leon and Capt. Chip calling, and get that all-important forecast, too…

Now before you go getting all flipped out about that “F”, it’s nothing naughty – the guys were just talking about all kinds of “F” things: Fishing, Food, Football, and Fun! WARNING: Nobody is quite sure what got into Capt. Kirk during this episode, but he was in RARE form. It’s worth the listen just to check out how sideways he gets… Here’s your L.…

Capt. Kevin and Capt. Cory were in studio talking about summer storms, and believe it or not, they’re just like Santa Claus! Why? Well, when Santa shows up, he drags soot around the fireplace, leaves cookie crumbs everywhere, spills some milk on the floor…and heaven knows what those reindeer are leaving on your roof. But the next morning, there’s a…

The boys were excited to welcome back Dr. Quinton White to talk about everything happening in First Coast waters…and this time, he had some stories to share about his recent world tour! Of course, the shark question came up, as you would guess. It’s another MUST LISTEN episode for sure. The guys also talked about the interesting storm that was Hurr…

Capt. Kevin and Capt. Cory piled into the studio for this week’s episode shaking off the last of the raindrops from Hurricane Debby, and scratching their heads about why everyone was making such a big deal out of her in the first place. Of course, it didn’t take long to get back to talking about fishing, and there are plenty of good stories and tip…

The King of the Beach was up and running as the guys entered the studio. To be more accurate, Capt. Kirk and Jeff came into the studio, because Capt. Kevin was busy trying to win the thing! That meant there was an empty chair in the studio, which was filled by none other than Capt. Leon Dana! They talked about the tournament, of course, and had sev…

With Capt. Kirk on assignment this week, Capt. Kevin and Jeff called Domenic Paniccia back to sit in! Domenic is BIG into kayak fishing, and he had a lot of insight to share. It’s funny how this show works sometimes, and how the conversations take a direction nobody saw coming. This episode was one of those times…no clue how the guys got to it, but…

…where do you go? Find out where Capt. Ricky went to catch some nice ones, what Capt. Kevin USED to use to catch some big ones, and why Capt. Cory wasn’t in the studio to tell some of his secrets!

In the wake of an unfortunately typical HOT MESS of a one-day snapper season, the guys got together to talk about it a little bit…but spent more time talking about how good things have been otherwise. In addition to all of their own fishing talk (and a little bit of snake talk), the guys welcomed in Louis Joseph, founder of the North Florida King o…

Capt. Kevin and Capt. Cory were in studio talking about the reason Capt. Ricky wasn’t with them: the glorious return of the ONE-DAY SNAPPER SEASON on Friday! Of course, the talk wasn’t so much about catching snapper as it was about the ridiculous reg and the resulting bottleneck of boats in First Coast waters. They also talked about the decent week…

The boys were back in town and ready to go today, and they brought Garmin’s Dowe Thornton in as well! If you’ve been listening to the Outdoors Show with any regularity over the past couple of years, you know everyone has been talking about the amazing technological advancements in fishing. Dowe is a Sr. Marine Sales and Support rep, and was able to…

Capt. Kirk, Jeff and Chris were all on vacation, so Capt. Kevin got hand-select his team for this episode! He called in Matt Bridgewater, his buddy Capt. Ron Gibson (aka “Boo”), and Capt. Chip Wingo all sat in, and Gibby took Chris’ chair to spin the hits! Obviously, fishing talk ruled the day, but after last week’s nor’easter, it wasn’t the easies…

Capt. Kevin was talking about it. Capt. Ricky was talking about it. What were they talking about? Just how difficult a week it’s been for fishing. Listen in for the details, and most importantly, if the weather was going to do us all some favors next week. Facebookעל ידי Kevin Faver

The guys had a pretty cool visitor to the Outdoors Show Studios during this episode: Cliff Prince, winner of the Bassmaster Elite Series at Wheeler Lake!

Chip Wingo sat in once again to talk about all things summer on the First Coast: the good fishing, the bad bait situation, the heat, the snakes, the recent shark attacks and more. Everybody also talked about the Old School Kingfish Shootout…kinda had to, since Paul Dozier called in with the recap! …

What’s a guy gotta do to get a quality crew these days? Okay – Capt. Ricky and Capt. Cory may have left Capt. Kevin all alone in the Fishing Forecast studio, but Capt. Ricky DID call in to share the story of his first-ever blue marlin! Of course, Capt. Kevin filled everyone in on the Old School Kingfish Shootout, and the usual cast of characters ca…

The beach was going CRAZY with kingfish this week, and the guys were all about it.

Capt. Cory was supposed to be joining Capt. Kevin and Capt. Ricky for this episode, but he decided it would be more fun to cut his finger off! Seriously, Capt.

It’s Memorial Day weekend…all of us from the Outdoors Show wish the very best to all the families of everyone who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. Thank you!

It’s a general rule that, if you spend time in the woods or in the water, you’re not happy to run into a snake. None of us are fans, but most species are, at the very least, tolerable. Well, if you’re talking about a moccasin, NOBODY likes those evil monsters. Capt. Kevin had to dispatch one in his yard last week, and Chris had to take one out just…

Capt. Kevin had a full house for this episode – Capt. Cory was back, and Capt. “Hollywood” Ricky Poupore made his return!
