Today Kurt, Marshal, and Kyle are joined by Chris Selle. Chris is a board member of the MoKan chapter of Trout Unlimited. Chris helps walk us through some of the basics of fly fishing and some of the gear to consider if you want to dive into the world of fly fishing. You might not think of Kansas as a fly fishing state, but Chris opens our eyes to the ability to use fly gear for any type of fish.

There is some major stuff going on at your statehouse so have a listen, decide for yourself, and make a difference by calling your legislator and telling them how you feel.

Everything you ever wanted to know about water in Kansas. Well almost...we need another episode to go deep on some topics. We visit with Burke Griggs, Professor at Washburn Law School, and one of the most knowledgeable people in the country on water law, particulary Kansas water law. Professor Burke provides a great rundown on everything outdoors people should know about waters of the United States, water rights, water access, water quality, and everything water. Enjoy.

If you think facts are better than fiction on the topic of CWD you need to listen to this episode. We talked to Dr. Krysten Schuler, a Wildlife Disease Ecologist with Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine, about CWD. Dr. Schuler is the foremost expert on CWD, having studied the disease since 2002, her entire career. She's presented expert testimony on CWD to the U.S. House Committee on Natural Resources where she explained that ""Chronic wasting disease is the most serious threat facing wild deer and elk populations in North America today." The best part…she's an avid hunter and we regrettably pulled her out of her tree stand to record this episode. This stuff is important to her. If anyone cares equally about deer, hunting and the impact of CWD; Dr. Schuler is that person. Have a listen, this is good stuff to know.
