Speaker 1 (00:04):
And welcome to the Town Outdoor Show. I'm Charlie.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Or Delicious initials Bombicious.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Red, Captain Vaul Tyre and I'm Grant.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Okay, you have been a lot going on this week.
First off, I will say my prayers go out all
those involved in a plane crash on the Colomet and
that that that sucks royally. And I know a lot
of our listeners up around the doath and Fort Rutger area. Uh,
I don't know Fort.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Again the uh he never changed for me.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yeah, I don't know. I can't anyway. So I know
a lot of a lot of guys up there, and
even some of our employees and members, you know, fly
those helicopters and recognize the dangers and in that. There's
a lot of train accidents around the world with a
military all the time, and I hate that somebody somewhere,
at some level some made them mistake and things happen,
(01:02):
and uh, you hate.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You ever flown into Washington, d C. Or anything Logan
there were Logan in Boston ones.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know how they have training flights around that.
That's type of wy I think that's to me, that's
a little seems a little silly but you know, hey, man,
people do what they're told to do, and I mean
three hundred feet above an approach on an airport unless
they were doing the mock approaches and things like. I don't,
I don't know. I can't speak out of turn, but
(01:30):
certainly I feel I feel for the soldiers and the
families and all the people involved.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, I was just saying, it's it's to me, it's Uh.
There are certain airports that I've flown into that are
more terrifying than others. In Washington is one of those,
because of the the amount of traffic. And uh, there's
I mean you look out the windows up there, and
there's always helicopters, uh in the general area. It doesn't
not just necessarily military. I mean there's in Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
I mean it was it was it was avoidable. It
was it was preventable, and it was avoidable. And people
have been warning about this, and they have been miscalls.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Well apparently there was a close call earlier too, right
before this happened.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Two. Yeah, Well they probably mentioned those because they happened
probably almost weekly or daily.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Well, the thing that bothers me the most is they
under the supposedly the first initial FAA thing was that
the air traffic control tower was understaffed.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
It was, yeah, well, I think they're supposed to have
thirty employees and they've got like eighteen or nineteen. And
that's total. That's not on the shift, that's like in total.
And we know from in law enforcement and having dispatch
centers and how important that stuff is. And the thing
is is, you know, they got to have breaks, and
(02:44):
they get sick and things happen. But when you are
that many people down on staffing, you're probably working mandatory
over time, You're tired, you're distressed. That's not a job
do that, and that is a highly highly stressful job.
But here's the thing, where do you get those people from.
I mean, you don't just go, hey, we want to
hire a bunch of air traffic controllers. That is not
(03:04):
you don't just get toy typical.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
But I mean, this was something that was brought up
months ago on some of the shows and the news
reports that I read, and there were qualified people that
were turned down as air traffic controllers because they didn't
check off boxes d ee boxes.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Why I want to turn them down when there's opening
you can't fill with people that did fit the.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Craft, made a hundred percent on the test. On his test,
they that didn't do it because he.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Was white, no check off, no d he didn't d
eye boxes. I mean, And if there was a directive
under the under the FAA to hire air traffic controllers
with psychopathic problem psychological problems, I mean they're they're just
so they could be diverse. You don't do that. You
hire the best person for the job. If I'm going
(03:56):
to I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Care what he is. I don't care what he are. Yes,
careless the plane safely.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Now you know, if the guy that's going to operate
on me, the guy that's gonna fly the plane, I
want that to be the most qualified person there.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Well, I can tell you that, having been a law
enforcement officer, we didn't care who was sending us. We
just wanted good information. So when we rolled up on
a scene, we had all of the information that was
important to us and that was as accurate as it
could be obtained. I didn't care who, what, when, how,
where was on the other end of that line. Now
(04:31):
take that a step further, and something we've all experienced,
because we've all flown. I have to assume that somebody
somewhere has checked all those boxes in qualification on the
qualification side, and we actually have that the pilot knows
how to fly, and the mechanic knew how to fix
the thing, and the guy feeling the plane knew how
to do that, and everything's been checked and counter checked
(04:53):
and triple quadriple check. Because I don't necessarily want to
be up. If we have a car crash on Interstate
I have some control. Okay, even if there's car more
cars coming, I can get up and run away. I
can do something. I can't do nothing.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
There's a reason we drive to South Dakota absolutely to
go hunting once a year. There's a reason we drive.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I mean, I don't know that I will fly again.
I mean maybe I will, maybe I won't. But the
chances I can tell you that over the last few years,
the chances of me getting killed in a plane crash
dressing astronomically, I hadn't been on a plane in a while.
And here's the thing. I'm not afraid to fly. I
don't have a problem flying. I recognize there's a risk,
but I also look at the statistics, and you are
(05:35):
more likely to get killed on the roadway than you
are up there, and it's not it's not necessarily I
relate this back to carrying a gun on my person.
It's not necessarily the likelihood of death that scares me
so much. It's the loss of control, the fact that
I have zero control. People go, well, why do you
(05:56):
carry a gun where you go? Because if I have
a gun, I mean, I hope I never have to
use it, all right, but at least I have some
control over the outcome of a fight. They go, well,
you don't need a gun to fight. Maybe I don't
need a gun to fight. Maybe maybe maybe I don't
need maybe just maybe I need my words and my
body language is all I need. But ultimately, at the
(06:18):
far end of the spectrum, I can pull a gun
and in this thing anytime I choose, I have control
over the outcome of any conversation that I have. Ultimately,
in ninety nine point nine nine percent of the infant
just nine point nine, I'm never gonna use a gun.
But I know that at the far end of that discussion,
(06:41):
if I want my way, I'm gonna get my way.
I am in control of the world I live in.
I said, some degree, I.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Can simplify that I ain't gonna die for lack of
shooting back.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, there you go, There you go.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Are y'all ever get in a situation you're at the
grocers or whatever, and something happens, you can you're prepared
to not run, But.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I'm I'm telling you run it. Going away from the
problem is first and foremost my plan. I want to
get as far away from that, you know. I mean,
but that if you're going to carry a gun and
be sensible about things, the first objective is to get away.
That is the one certain way to win a fight
is to not have a fight. So if you can
remove yourself, that's what you need to do. Unless there's
(07:22):
somebody there that needs to protected, and I could, yeah,
unless there's somebody needs protecting me and my family or
somebody else. But right, and that's exactly right. But first
and foremost, if it's just me and I can walk away,
and I don't care if it makes me, if I
lose face or this is not the you know, the
meet you on the field of honor kind of stuff.
You don't have that attitude. You know, I'm gonna stand
up for myself because I'm because I can stand up. Well,
(07:44):
I'm gonna stand up for myself too. But I ain't
never been in a fist fight. From from fifth five
years old to now, I ain't never been in a
fight that I ain't get skinned up, you know. I mean,
they just don't have it. If you get in a fight,
you gonna get skinn up.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Now I've seen you, I'm not say well, I'm still
hurting from some of those that the injury might come
later because you've seen you come out ahead. Ahead's good.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I didn't say i'd ever lost one. I just said
it always hurts after the fact.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
When I teach the matra, I teach for the the
mantra of the protector, and I use this for law
enforcement users a lot. But this is for everybody. Is
that when you are armed, you don't walk into a
room with the attitude is I'm the baddest dude in here.
You walk in there with the attitude that everybody in
here is safer because I am here, because I carry
(08:36):
myself when away, and I arm myself when I prepare
myself in a way that I can help control the
outcome of a bad situation in the world that I'm in.
You know, my little circle of influence may be small,
but it's but it's the people that I'm around are safer.
Even people I don't like, even people I don't agree with,
Even people that may hate the fact that I have
a gun, that may hate what I stand for, They're
(08:58):
still there. I will protect them too. Now I'm not going.
I might not step in front of a bus for
somebody that's cursing me out, calling me a bunch of names,
and I see them about getting run over. I may
not sacrifice my long life for them. I may go, man,
that's karma, but I will certainly, I will certainly, I
will certainly do everything I can to help them. But
(09:20):
you know, and that's just, that's just I don't know.
So I want the world and I expect the government
the place of the go and if the government takes responsibility,
you need to take responsibility. When you say this is
what we're going to regulate and we're going to do it,
then you need to make sure you do it. I mean,
just because people just blindly follow I've fallen on the
(09:44):
skid of a helicopter and looked at the pilot and
knew he was a little touched, but still did it anyway,
because I knew he was good at what he was doing.
We'll be back in a minute. Have you been diagnosed
with a herniated disc or arthritis in your back or neck?
Doctor Joseph Miller, d C at the Tallahassee Spine Center

(10:53):
the breaks, we get half the We could recorded a
whole segment right there on the break when we were
so we were talking about some of the confirmations and stuff,
and you know, this is getting a lot of attention.
That is, I mean, it's it's interesting. I like something.
I don't have time to sitting there and watch the
whole but I like, I liked what cash Betel said,
grant from now when we get down to a minute
or two minutes something. I thought it was, you.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Have to.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Just you have two minutes.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Wow. Wow, I'd love to sit here for three hours
and read the whole transcript. You got two minutes.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
That takes ball there. Here's the thing. Well, we're gonna
do because because that's just advice and consent and Trump,
you know Trump and J. D. Vance said, well, you know,
we're the president. Do what he wants to. You know,
it's just advice and consent. And he'll appoint him however,
because there's ways he can get them in eat.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, that's not that's not a cabinet position. I don't
think that has to be. Uh whattif I like.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
That the FBI got involved in some of the migrant
detentions and stuff, illegal detentions or not that that the
detentions are illegal, it's just you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
The criminal, the criminal out chasing the bag.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
This new press secretary, she's there talking about, Well you
don't understand, you're talking about which one's committed crimes. Well,
they're all they all broke, they're all criminals by default.
And I see people we've been criminal about that.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It's Hope says, it's a disgrace that what we're doing
having a border. The Pope and that guy I just
passed the law. If you go on the Vatican, they
put you in prison or charge you a huge.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
If you say, have you ever seen the Vatican, he's gonna.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Say that Trump he's doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
That's just crazy. Did you have ever seen ever seen
pictures or been to the Vatican. I've been to the Vatican.
Really yeah, they have. They have what's called the Swiss
Guard at the Vatican, and every entrance it is a fort.
It is completely walled, it ain't fenced. It's got these
big huge marble, this big you know wall around it.
It's in the middle of room and it's got this
(12:57):
big wall around it. And they have armed guards, like
militarily armed guards. They got the fancy, fancy dressed up
looking ones. Now that the Swiss Guard are wearing all
these old Middle Ages looking uh suits and stuff. But
they got guys with machine guns at every gate, yeah,
every gate, and they're walking around and playing clothes and that.
(13:17):
It is one of the most police state looking places
you've ever been.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
To tear us out, they have like a bullet poop.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, and that's after John Paul got shot years ago.
They did started doing that. But I'm saying is if
you it's it's his, his little kingdom, that is truly
his little kingdom in the middle of Rome. Is it's
it's his country private, it's its own country country, it's
its own entity, and it is a walled, fortified, heavily
armed borders you know.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So who you talking to? Ye, I mean, it's the whole.
It's it's a far cry from the Roman Empire, you know,
back when the you know, there's there's empires and countries
and they basically their own little country on that high
remning square miles.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
They got there, not even I don't think it's square miles.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
But to live like that, and that goes right back
to the liberals that are that are well had nice
homes with gates and fences and stuff, and saying that you.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Know, at least to come move the homeless people from
in front of their house.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Yeah, I mean, you know, we want we want everybody
else to suffer, but we don't want to suffer ourselves.
And you know, it's just that same thing. It boils
all the way. It's local, it's regional, it's statewide, it's whatever.
People are all about liberal policies and bringing people and
providing it. They don't want them in their yard, they
don't want them on their street, but they're okay with
them spill them over into somebody else's neighborhood. Was it's
(14:42):
not their neighborhood, you know, and it was like you
got to California's all right, well we don't want to
do this, and we don't want to do that, and
then their neighborhood burns.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
For people coming to this country that want to work,
assimilate and contribute to our to our society, I am
one hundred percent they should. They should fix the immigration problem. Yes,
and that is fast. We've got the technology. If they
want to come here, live here, work here, pay taxes,
and go to school and learn our language and assimilate
(15:12):
and become Americans. That's what America is all that is
the melting.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Did y'all see all the ones that were protesting at
the colleges. Trump's done tother thing to college?
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah, go home.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
They don't want to play some in the back.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Dad another courthouse the other day that they come here
and they're testing the them the deportation a bunch of
that's fine.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
They might not want their picture taking the fair student
because they've they're going to get deported right back on
over there. I'm telling any of they have a take away.
They're not citizens of this country. Okay, they're not citizens
of this country. And I and I am one hundred
percent because I have friends have migrated here from other
countries and they have businesses and they are fans, tasting
(15:55):
people and their families are welcome.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Right.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
But there's a process, and I promise you the ones
that I'm friends with, they followed the process. They went,
they jumped through the hoops, they did everything right. And
I'm talking about from India, I'm talking about from Mexico.
I'm talking about from other places that have come here.
And these are valuable members, I promise you. Cash Patail's
ancestors probably filled out a form before he came over here.
And now he's about to run the FBI.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Let me pose this to you. Let's let's save me.
And you jumped in my boat, drove it across the
ocean over there, and we landed on the shores of Spain.
But just a hypothetical. My bat is big enough to
do that. But if we jumped up in the boat
and run across the ocean over there and landed in
another country and jumped out and run up to one
of their courthouses, to their capitol building, and started protesting
(16:38):
about how they run their business, I would expect to
go to jail.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
We run down to Quiba. Do that You're about to
make it to Cuba? Yeah, we didat good until we
got caught.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Smoke a couple of good cigars.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah. But why these protesters all seemed to they put
this petuli all, who thinks that stuff smells good?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
That's nasty? Why are you getting close enough to smell it?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Why was it the courthouse?
Speaker 2 (17:04):
You get down when I smell?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Surely, all if you hadn't figured out I got a
sensitive nose.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
I got some stuff in there. It smells pretty close
to it that I didn't know. It smells about every
now and then you got a defunc place.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I walk I walk into Charlie's Alicer now and then
I said, man, you've been harboring hippies in here or something.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
It's supposed to smell like it smell like gunpowder and
gun old, but it smells like all them others. Way,
I don't know, but it smells better than what it
does smell like in there.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Sometimes you need to get something that smells like hoppies
number nine.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, that's what I'm trying to find, is something they
make all this stuff and they say, well it's this,
this is It smells like you know, campfires and and
you know the soap that we sell out. I use
that stuff and it smells good. It smells good. Stuff
smells so good. And every day I get up take
a shower and I saw two baits.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, oh yeah, I try.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
There's different sense. And man, it's just I love starting
today smelling that stuff. And I'm looking for something that
goes in. One of those little missing things has the
same smell.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Well, you know what hoppy is number nine smells like bananas.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Why does it smell like bananas?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yeah, it smells like bananas. If you if you really
started Wow, we really start alight because it's got banana
oil in it. They I don't know how you get,
but it's got banana oil in it.
Speaker 1 (18:17):
Only you would know that.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
You know what w D forty really is. It's fish ole.
That's why it works on banks, That's why you can
sprey it on fish bait and the fish it is
made out of. It is it's got some fish oles
in it.

Oh yeah, you know I'm talking. Oh yeah, rides it
up now, tom right.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Yeah. I've seen him in the middle of ox Bottom
rude and he's got I think he got a new scooter.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
Uh huh. He was all in tail on that thing.
Speaker 3 (22:06):
Oh yeah, he was going.
Speaker 2 (22:07):
I was going about twenty.
Speaker 1 (22:09):

Speaker 3 (22:09):
He sits up here and yells at the people at Starbucks,
which you know, God bless him.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
I do too, I yell at the people at Starbucks.
Speaker 1 (22:18):
So one time I'll tell a quick story. Remember Dusty Miller. Oh,
Dusty told a story one time. He said, I went
out to a report of a theft, and a lady said,
I walked out my house to get my paper, and
I've bent over and looked between my legs and my
scooter was gone. And her her little scooter that was
parked up by the house. That's when she noticed that
(22:40):
it was missing.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Is your back killing you from sitting at an uncomfortable
desk all day? Do you have pain radiating down your
leg or down the arm? Called doctor Joseph Miller d
C at the Tallahassee Spine Center and ask about spinal
decompression therapy at eight five zero five eight, n you
row five to two, five to two.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Are you tired of that chainsaw that never starts when
you need it? Do you spend your whole weekend fighting
your old lawnmower? It doesn't have to be that way.
South Side Mower has been serving to Tallahassee and surrounding
areas for thirty nine years. They have a wide range
of hus Varna, Gravely and ex smart lawnmowers, still chainsaws, tremors, edges,
and blowers, as well as generators, pressure washers and more.

visit the website southside more dot com. And we're back
so here. We got a couple of trade shows coming up.
(23:44):
I'm going to one without you. That's the first. That's
like a first. Yeah, I'll never go. I don't. I
don't go to these things without you.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
And Corey went went to Las Vegas one time, yeah, Shay,
without me. I don't remember exactly why, but you did
and I.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Was well after me. You and Corey went one year
and it almost got out of hand. I figured maybe
we need it back too.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Uh yeah, one in Vegas coming over, uh that they.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Just had that and everybody I talked to it it
was out there, came back with the crud. There's a
thing called the shot show crud. You put eighty thousand
people in a big building together from all over the world,
I mean all over the world. Every country that has
guns and businesses and industry, they're all there, and all
those germs get together.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
The last time we all, me, you and Jesse went
out there, y'all both got real bad sick. And that
was the week the year of COVID came right about
the same time COVID was showing up in the.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
First through that airport. That guy was in that airport
with COVID that same weekend we were in there. I
ain't so sure that we the ones brought it back
to Florida. I know, I got sick as a dog.
I hain't been that sick, but then I got COVID
again later, So yeah, whatever, they just don't ever want
that headache again. But I know it. But those things
(24:57):
typically now we got what Jay didn't have done. We
we've quit going to the big trade show. We go
to the regional or the manifact or the distributor specific one.
So we go to a company called amchar Up and
Savannah every year and take the wives generally and just
kind of make a weekend out of it and by
most of you know, a lot of stuff that we
(25:17):
buy throughout the year, see new products and on and
then we're going to a new one that we haven't been.
It's not new, but we haven't been.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Yeah, and this first time they've done it. This time, Yeah,
this is I think this is a brand new thing
for one of our distributors to do this. I think
that's I think you're seeing going to see a lot
more of that because people are tired of traveling. The
Shot Show is run by NSSF National Sports Shooting Federation
is who kind of sponsors the Shot Show, and they
used to do it. It was two years in Vegas
(25:45):
and one year in Orlando. Two years of Vegas, one
year in Orlando. So we've been a few of them
in Orlando. Well, the show, the number of vendors outgrew
everywhere else in the world to do it but the
Sands Convention Center, and now it's out we're on the
Sins Convention Center and has morphed and grown over into
Caesar's Palace or one of the other I mean, and
(26:06):
got there to those casinos. Sometimes you don't know when
you leave one and get to the other one, except
the decorations change and the the you know, the changes
left one and gone to the other. But it's it's
just so big now that and anyway, we don't we
don't have a table. We don't set up a table
(26:26):
for the Holstra company anymore. And it's just hate it.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
It was it was work going getting a palette full
of stuff shipped out there. And then and we used
to go down our ratios too, and we would set
up a booth there, and you know, we crunch some
numbers and realize that we just weren't like a lot
of smaller manufacturers are starting daring over at Richt. It
Still he doesn't set up a booth that these things anymore,
he says, you know, it's just you know, they ain't
(26:51):
worth it.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
It ain't worth it.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Now you're all going to the show to buy products.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Now, Well, we started out and then we I don't know,
we've been back and forth. We were researching back in
the beginning. But now we now we're just buyers. We
don't we don't try to sell anything you get. You know,
we still have a holster company, but we don't hand
out holster cards and stuff. We just don't just not
We're not in the distributorship like that anymore. It's mostly
custom stuff here through the store. And if you listen
(27:16):
to the show and you want a custom holster, you
know we do that here. You want some crossdraw chess
mounted rig or you know the fight bears with, or
you want some little pocket holster whatever, we do. All
that stuff here is rifle, custom rifle, slings, winging graves
from New.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
York that had your holster. As soon as I mentioned talent,
he's like, oh, I know them, I got one.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Yeah, I mean, you know. But when we got down
the holster business, we were doing really really well, and
then everybody, everybody else got in it, and then we
would have had to spend as much money marketing as
we made, and it just got to the point where
we're just gonna focus on guns and training and the
gun range and local folks and we don't need somebody
in Spokane, Washington knowing who we are, although we do
(27:59):
send holsters up there for the right one. Maybe not Spokane,
but you know places like that.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
We get to Spokane, Spokane, and.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It depends on where you know where you're from.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
If you're from you, if you from Dry Creek south
of Ariana, it's probably Spokane. Kind of like cocaine.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
You come, you come to can you come to where
I live and we'll teach you how you supposed to
say stuff and then you can take that back home. Okay,

so I go when I meet her yesterday, and I
look up there and man, you're talking about pretty these turkeys.
(31:51):
She's got them. And apparently she had slaughtered turkeys a
few days before, and she had this spare hen because
she got tired of killing them all, so one and
got the reprieve. I think it's sweet. The turkey's name Sweetye.
So she had one, she had one set back to
keep for breeding purposes, and Sweetye was running around the yard.
(32:12):
Was sweety watched all this happen apparently, And she goes,
I got tired and we let her live. And so
she sent me a picture of that one. So we're going,
you know, sweetie and Jacob who was the tom? And
I'm sorry, So I go, I get this. She goes, well,

She goes, this is one I was gonna keep sweety.
I ain't seen her in a couple of days.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
She left way too somebody.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
She's out there somewhere, and so you know, you know me,
I only hear about what people say. All right, Well, okay,
don that's beautiful. Hen, that's that's fine with me. He goes, Okay, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll. Well, well,
Jacob is he likes women. He's been raised by women.
He will. And they're over there, her and her just
petting this bird, scratching his head and he's loving it.
He's leaning into it. And I'm like, cool, we got
(32:57):
a pet. She goes, well, he doesn't really like strange men.
And I said, I'm on a stranger now. And so
we load those things. See. She catches them, puts them
in in the dog kenneling back of the car, drive
them home, get there before dark. I'm putting them in
a big dog kettle. I got some chicken wire over
the top. Say they don't get out. And because I
(33:19):
don't know, domestic turkeys can't fly, but they can flap,
and I don't know what breeds they are, and there's
certain breeds. There's one breede which is a black Spanish
that can's leggedly flying. I'm like, well, I don't know.
I don't want to get out, so I opened the
dog kettle in there, get all square away. They won't
come out because they've roosted for the night. It's dark
at that point in time. So this morning, I go
down there and I'm going to introduce myself to the turkeys.
(33:40):
I want, this is home, guys, this is home. I want.
I put some feed and some water down there. Some
wee's on down there. The dogs are in the house
and nothing to disturb them. I'm going to go down here.
I got me some little meal worms, little grub worms,
dried worms, and I opened the I opened the cage
and I took a step in the pen. And apparently
Jacob doesn't like strange men. And all of a sudden,
(34:02):
I get, I get and I'm looking at that gum
spurs and got my leg. I mean, he's coming at
me now and I'm trying to get out the fence.
But I don't want him to get out the fence.
So I got a face full of big old Tom
turkey I'm talking about. This thing is huge. He's a
year old, and I mean, and he's making all this
racket and just you know how they'll get out there
(34:24):
and fight. Well, apparently he thought I was worth fighting.
And it wasn't stay out of my pen fighting. It
was letting me out and I will whip your butt fighting.
This thing is trying to get on me. Now I've
dropped a bag of grub worms and I don't want
him to shred that thing up.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
You know, Please tell me d cameras.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
I don't know. I'll go back and look. So so
I opened the gate and I reach in and he
comes after my arm and I'm like whoa, whoa wo
So I go in there, and you know, if you
got a dog that's jumping on you like Lily does
all the time, you put your knee out there. Uhh.
I finally had to kick came in the chest to
get him back far enough. I may not like hurting pricking,
but flushing with my yeah, that's what exactly pushed him
(35:07):
back there. Least in there, snatched that bag out, shut
the gate closed, it, made sure it lassed, and walked
around there and I'm like, let me just kneel down
and calm down and then calm him down, maybe feed
him some. He tried to get me through the fence.
Speaker 3 (35:22):
I mean he's talking about maybe putting a wig on it.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
And on that. Well I want Well, here's the thing
is so so apparently he likes women. So when my
sixteen year old gets home today, I'm put her in
the pen with him and see what's a.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Great idea, HRS Child Abuse. You'll be ready for this
call and it's probably true.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Well, so, so I sent her text and I said, hey,
what what breed? What breed? This goes well? Yesterday I
said some word I can't pronounce. But the girls a
full bronze and he's a black Spanish, which is the
one that can fly in a bronze mix years. Oh no,
I'm guessing Jacob's acting up. He's funny about men. He
was raised by women. Lets my uncle Patty. But he
(36:06):
hates my brother in law. And if it gets to
be a problem, you can bring him back and I
will get you some cat something else on the property. Menion.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
No, I'm talking about high brass. We can we can
handle this.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
I'm gonna tough it out and we're gonna, we're gonna,
we're gonna tame this turkey.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Why do you put him? Akay, bring him to the
show next week?
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah, the lot and say we did. I got some
high I got some high brass. Number five. That bull
of choke handled that situation.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
I whispered.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
I have I have never had a domestic since I
was a kid. And my grandma and me walked out
in the cow pasture and we had to hold herd
of cows walk us out into the pond and just
she was like, oh, they're coming after us. And I
don't think they actually were. I think they just wanted
to deep Yeah, And I have never had a domestic
animal animal other than like a vicious dog that bit me,
(36:56):
scare me like that. But that thing come after me
and it's not like but it surprised me, and that
wasn't what I was expecting. I'm thinking, this is a
tame animal. He's going to let me go on, right,
And maybe he won't. Maybe he won't let me petty
my chickens. I have to kind of catch them. Well,
I do have a he come after me and he
was mad.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
I can tell the difference between a male and a female bath?
How do you what's the difference? How do you do?
Speaker 1 (37:18):
On the quail? All the white depending on the breed.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
But the roasters have a white strip on their eyes
in their head they got little white strips, and the
hens have a dark brown.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Birds birds and the birds the kingdom. The male bird
is always more attractive than the female bird in the
male the bird kingdom.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
But you don't have to, you know, when you're out
there quill hunt, you don't say only can you the male?
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Like seconds picture, see that the light tan stripes on
that on that bird's head, those would be white if
that was a male. That's a female. Okay, okay? And
the and the industry. When I caught these birds for her,
I'm going through there, normally, I just scoop them up
in a net. I've got my cardboard box or opening
(38:03):
up and I'll just feel how many lumpses into net
and I'll just dump them in the box. And uh,
I'll always be careful, maybe throwing an extra when you
old Baker's does in philosophy. And but I don't care
which I got males or female. I don't care. But
when I was going to these I actually caught them
like one at the time with the net, and I
was real gentle with them. And I'm catching them, I'm
looking at them, checking to make sure they're healthy, you know,
(38:25):
and these birds are this is I'm like, here, you
get to live a little longer because normally when I
catch them, they're gonna be dead within twenty four hours.
If somebody's gonna shoot, well, they're gonna get shot at.
They may live.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
This is a Spanish Spanish black black Spanish turkey. You
got a picture of the picture.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
Of Yeah, so that remember when you.
Speaker 2 (38:45):
Will look they look like wild turkey, Charlie, Oh yeah,
do they look like wild turkeys? Yeah? Oh yeah, they
look like wild turkeys.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
The Spanish, the Spanish, the Spanish. The black is a
mix with the brown turkey from back in the fifteen night.
Speaker 2 (38:58):
I got a plan. We need to put some We
need to put some stobs in the ground with a
little loop on them. We're gonna tie another end of that.
We're gonna give us a string tied to the leg
and put them out there in the field, down in
the corner, and come turkey season, we just walk them
out there, get them tamed up good and we'll tie.
We have some five decoys.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Yeah, but you gotta. I mean, you're gonna get illegal
alien turkeys coming up because.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
You've got a green card. They're employed.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
This breed was immigrated into fifteen hundred. So they've been
here long enough.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
Okay, all right. They assimilated the naturally the natural boy.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
They were here before my ancestors, about one hundred years.
Speaker 5 (39:37):

important lessons. Other times, the more we resist, the longer

to cover three cents fishing stuff with Paul because they
bite bass bass teams at the collegiate level. With Fred
because he saw he saw one from from Alabama and
JD's peacock story.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
So go ahead. Fred brought up that they had peacocks,
which there's peacocks all over Clarna Lake experiently that it
is illegal to use live decoys. I'm just making a joke,
So game Wardens, I'm joking, maybe.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
We have peacocks you had? Yeah, yeah, they had so
bena be for sneaking away. They look like burglar alarm.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
Oh yeah, then what's your peacock story.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
So my father in law, mother in law and father
in law lived out of Miami until about five or
six years ago. They moved up here. Well, they had
a big, big yard for Miami about two acres, and
all of a sudden, these peacocks started showing up into
about yards. I ain't told about one or two of them.
I'm talking about like fifteen of them. We went down
there to visit one time and there's all these peacocks
in the backyard and my mother in law says, yeah,
(41:40):
they just showed up here. So we started feeding them.
And she'd had foxes and she fed everything that came
through the yard, and Uh, anyway, they were just enjoyed
watching the peacocks. Well, they had a big fifth wheel
camper out there part and then peacocks got up on
the roof of that camper and did twenty something thousand
dollars worth of damage to the roof of that camper
(42:01):
because you know, campers have that membrane, the waterproof membrane
for a roof on the camper. And they got up
there and what well, they parted it as a little
scrub boat out there, and it drop acorns on the
roof of the camper out there, and then peacocks got
it there. I guess they were they were scratching, just
like they're scratching the ground looking for something to eat,
(42:22):
and they just shredded. I mean absolutely, And I told
I asked my father, and I said, had the things
taste He goes, I don't know. I said, let's find out.
Speaker 3 (42:32):
It tastes like turkey from what I hear.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Yeah, I imagine it being.
Speaker 4 (42:35):
A story about guineas.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
Y'all know what.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
Oh yeah, they make good burglar alarms.
Speaker 4 (42:40):
The Lake city from my parents are from. And I
went with my pelt gun out hunting and I found
some of them things, and I was shooting. I got
my butt up.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
We had a pile of this.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
I didn't. They got their eggs. They lay eggs. They'll
lay eggs in it'll be a pyramid about twelve inches tall,
just a mound of eggs as guinea fowl.
Speaker 3 (43:02):
Guinea eggs.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
Oh yeah, they're delicious. They're delicious, almost perfectly round. They're
very round. They're they're between a quail egg and a
chicken egg. They're like a small chicken egg. But they're
almost they're not real oblong egg shaped. They're they're more round.
But then I used to go look around, I'd find
them guinea nest and you just find a pyramid, a big, old,
tall mound of eggs and not going there and steal
(43:24):
them eggs and out of the nest and cook them.
When I was a kid, we used to have a
bunch of them. They beat great burglar alarm anyway, so
they didn't think.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
So Fred, you saw you saw them.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
And there's a took a picture of it on Interstate
Troy University bass team. Guy's got a nice bass boat.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
Yeah, foreign concept to him.

Yes, absolutely, full ride.
Speaker 1 (43:55):
Fred said, I want a major in bassts. I don't
think they made man, if.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
They'd have had bass fishing for I tell you child,
they're actually today. Well, I have promised my fifteen year
old that I will take her to the to the
boat basin on Sunday afternoon. For the way in Saturday
and Sunny. She's done boat of craven on some of
the little boy on the bass team and fish.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
He's probably a good kid. Yeah, where's the where is
it at the basin?
Speaker 2 (44:21):
What boat basin in Bambridge right there at twenty seven
from Georgia.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
Man, So that's where they're having the tournament.
Speaker 2 (44:27):
That's where they're fishing at of is there the way
and it's probably started three there's gonna be two undred
boats in it.
Speaker 4 (44:33):
So anybody's playing on going to elect someone on this weekend,
it's going to be crowded.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
It'll be busy this time of the year. Like Simonold
on the weekends gets very crowded.
Speaker 4 (44:40):
There's one tournament, bigger tournament. But we got a lot
of win today. I was out there, you know, Bobby Williams.
I was out with him this morning. We were catching
the crop. It was fun. But them boats are running
by the I love high school fishing. Think it's the
best thing since Ray Scott started bast you know, it's
really good. But brothers, some folks, the kids said they
(45:01):
want to fish and they go buy a boat and
they really don't know it. Don't have brakes, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (45:07):
That's there.
Speaker 4 (45:08):
It's you. I see some stuff. We see that every
I'm hoping nobody gets hurted. Every year somebody is an accident.
It's weird, you see that.
Speaker 2 (45:17):
I think the high school tournaments make the kids can't
actually operate the boat, the big motor on the boat.
They can they operate the troll of motor and the fish,
but they have to have a captain to drive them around,
and little fish usually are all grown hopefully a grown
grown adult drinking. Yeah, yeah, you don't definitely want to
be frown on that. But man, the crappie fishing has
(45:39):
been exceptional. We've caught some giants today, we call I'll
show you a picture of it. What's the water temperature
fifty one and a half today? So when does the
baths start biting the rattle traps?
Speaker 1 (45:49):
Right?
Speaker 4 (45:49):
And they've already been doing it. Okay, so they're biting
rattle traps right, yes, sir, rattle traps, crank baits. That's
been working with this warming trend. I'm noticing a lot
of the croppi are starting to move from their winter
and areas kind of transition to where they're gonna be spawning.
But the bass are going to start moving shallow, probably
this weekend. I bet they're gonna every day. It's gonna
it's warming up. I think that water temperature hit seventy
(46:11):
four fifty five today and fifty weeked about a.
Speaker 3 (46:14):
March bed for bass.
Speaker 4 (46:17):
Yeah, well, really the crapill start bedding in February about
the middle of February and then they on bed this weekend.
It's coming, and then the bass will start right with them,
because and I've on seminole, I've seen bass bed all
the way into September.
Speaker 2 (46:32):
Really, it's kind of like.
Speaker 4 (46:33):
They push in March in April.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
But there's the vast majority of the fish will do
will bed at a certain time, and then you'll have
these and it's kind of like we see deer. We
see it here with spots. You know, in the late fall,
early winter you'll have you know, birth to a fawn
where all the rest of the fawn are born in
around here in July, so you'll have that late that.
Speaker 4 (46:56):
What I always seen on seminoles, the middle sections first,
then the lower in and D of the dam, then
up the rivers.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
Okay, so because Central Florida, I guess they bed around there.
They've been bedding.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
They've been been since now there since well central Florida,
okachob since October.
Speaker 3 (47:11):
But the main bed like when you hear, you know,
you see those big marchass.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
March, March, depending on the weather, usually March. Your place
probably might be the full moon in February.
Speaker 1 (47:24):
I bet that place.
Speaker 2 (47:25):
Yeah, water warmer water, it's all. It's all relative to
the to the water temperature and the depth of the lake,
and all that stuff has the magic number that you
can put on the calendar.
Speaker 4 (47:36):
I was catching. There was a hundreds of thousands of
cropping down the lake. Well, the water started warming up
down the lake, and they seemed like they left. And
as the as I saw, I went up the river
and the water where tempert was colder, where we called
them with CJ. And they've been catching there all week beggins.
(47:57):
But they're starting to move shallow for sure.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I got a book that I ordered the other day,
well I actually didn't order it. I was in CBS
in line and look back there in this book called
Life along the Apalachicola River by a guy named Jim McClellan.
Now Mr McClellan grew up in Bluntstown, so below the dam,
and he's I don't know how old he is, but
(48:20):
he he writes like he's might be just a few
years older than me, you know, it's could be about
same age, a little bit older. But he talks about
his grant great his grandfather and his father and a
fish camp down on it's not lake. I'm on you
I'm on your lake. It's down somewhere around Bluntstown. It's
like an old watchbow up in there. And they got
(48:41):
a camp camp there that used to be one of
the timber cump neil Neil timber neil Land camp land,
and and it's down down that a way and he's
he's it's I got about two more chapters and I'm
gonna bring it and let you all ready. And it's
a good book in the I'm reading the stories and
all this stuff about the history and the deer deer
(49:05):
hunting when you know, his dad just wore a shirt
and khakis and you know, regular shoes and whatever ball
cap somebody gave him, and on and on. I mean,
it's just it's but here's the thing is, I'm reading
this book and he's talking about oyster pearls, you know,
in the in their head and all this kind of stuff,
(49:26):
just and uh and doing fish fries and talking about
how mullet and you can't get elected in the South
without having a mullet fry. You know, you got to
have a fish fry. And he talks about some of
the terminology and stuff like that, and it's it's all
local stuff. And I'm sitting there reading these stories and
I'm going, man, we need to write a book because
there's there's uh because and I was and the whole
(49:46):
time I'm reading this, I'm thinking about JD. And I'm going, well,
you know, he's just a few miles upstream.
Speaker 2 (49:51):
And I guarantee I've been on some of the water
he's talking about. I promise you that that's you know,
there ain't much of that river. I haven't been on
it something.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
But the thing is, you know, it's it's it's it's
it's cool to see somebody local write a book. Now
you find it in the it was in the little
book section at CBS where you buy the books on
They put all the local flavor books in there, where
you know, you can read about the air history in
Florida and so it's none of that interesting me. I
saw this book and I picked it up in like
(50:18):
twenty books. It's a good read's you read the whole
thing in the day if you sat down and just
focused on it. It's taken me to evenings to get
through all of it. But like the last chapter and
I'm and that's me still scrolling on the internet. But
I'll bring it in. Unlet y'all read it and pass
it around, and it's it's interesting. But at the same
point we've told we've told just as funny as stories,
(50:40):
if not funnier right here on this show. You know,
it's just it's just an accumulation of of you know,
the culture which we seriously seriously identify with. I mean,
so it's it's nice to read somebody else's you know what,
is the same reason people listening to the show when
they listen to us, you've identify.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
That if you ever want to read a really good book.
Robert Rourke wrote the book The Old Man and the
Boy and it was based on Robert Rourke's He used
to write a column in the back of sports Field
or Outdoor Life or whatever, and it's the same kind
of stuff. And I identify heavily with that book. It
was my English teacher gave it to me in high school.
Speaker 3 (51:20):
So Robert Rorke Old Man and the Boy.
Speaker 1 (51:23):
Yes, well, we'll be uh, that could be anyway. We'll
be back next week.
And welcome to the Town Outdoor Show. I'm Charlie.
Speaker 2 (00:08):
Or Delicious initials Bombicious.
Speaker 3 (00:12):
Red, Captain Vaul Tyre and I'm Grant.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Okay, you have been a lot going on this week.
First off, I will say my prayers go out all
those involved in a plane crash on the Colomet and
that that that sucks royally. And I know a lot
of our listeners up around the doath and Fort Rutger area. Uh,
I don't know Fort.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Again the uh he never changed for me.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Yeah, I don't know. I can't anyway. So I know
a lot of a lot of guys up there, and
even some of our employees and members, you know, fly
those helicopters and recognize the dangers and in that. There's
a lot of train accidents around the world with a
military all the time, and I hate that somebody somewhere,
at some level some made them mistake and things happen,
(01:02):
and uh, you hate.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
You ever flown into Washington, d C. Or anything Logan
there were Logan in Boston ones.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
I don't know how they have training flights around that.
That's type of wy I think that's to me, that's
a little seems a little silly but you know, hey, man,
people do what they're told to do, and I mean
three hundred feet above an approach on an airport unless
they were doing the mock approaches and things like. I don't,
I don't know. I can't speak out of turn, but
(01:30):
certainly I feel I feel for the soldiers and the
families and all the people involved.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
Yeah, I was just saying, it's it's to me, it's Uh.
There are certain airports that I've flown into that are
more terrifying than others. In Washington is one of those,
because of the the amount of traffic. And uh, there's
I mean you look out the windows up there, and
there's always helicopters, uh in the general area. It doesn't
not just necessarily military. I mean there's in Uh.
Speaker 3 (01:55):
I mean it was it was it was avoidable. It
was it was preventable, and it was avoidable. And people
have been warning about this, and they have been miscalls.
Speaker 2 (02:03):
Well apparently there was a close call earlier too, right
before this happened.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Two. Yeah, Well they probably mentioned those because they happened
probably almost weekly or daily.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
Well, the thing that bothers me the most is they
under the supposedly the first initial FAA thing was that
the air traffic control tower was understaffed.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
It was, yeah, well, I think they're supposed to have
thirty employees and they've got like eighteen or nineteen. And
that's total. That's not on the shift, that's like in total.
And we know from in law enforcement and having dispatch
centers and how important that stuff is. And the thing
is is, you know, they got to have breaks, and
(02:44):
they get sick and things happen. But when you are
that many people down on staffing, you're probably working mandatory
over time, You're tired, you're distressed. That's not a job
do that, and that is a highly highly stressful job.
But here's the thing, where do you get those people from.
I mean, you don't just go, hey, we want to
hire a bunch of air traffic controllers. That is not
(03:04):
you don't just get toy typical.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
But I mean, this was something that was brought up
months ago on some of the shows and the news
reports that I read, and there were qualified people that
were turned down as air traffic controllers because they didn't
check off boxes d ee boxes.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Why I want to turn them down when there's opening
you can't fill with people that did fit the.
Speaker 4 (03:26):
Craft, made a hundred percent on the test. On his test,
they that didn't do it because he.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Was white, no check off, no d he didn't d
eye boxes. I mean, And if there was a directive
under the under the FAA to hire air traffic controllers
with psychopathic problem psychological problems, I mean they're they're just
so they could be diverse. You don't do that. You
hire the best person for the job. If I'm going
(03:56):
to I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Care what he is. I don't care what he are. Yes,
careless the plane safely.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
Now you know, if the guy that's going to operate
on me, the guy that's gonna fly the plane, I
want that to be the most qualified person there.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Well, I can tell you that, having been a law
enforcement officer, we didn't care who was sending us. We
just wanted good information. So when we rolled up on
a scene, we had all of the information that was
important to us and that was as accurate as it
could be obtained. I didn't care who, what, when, how,
where was on the other end of that line. Now
(04:31):
take that a step further, and something we've all experienced,
because we've all flown. I have to assume that somebody
somewhere has checked all those boxes in qualification on the
qualification side, and we actually have that the pilot knows
how to fly, and the mechanic knew how to fix
the thing, and the guy feeling the plane knew how
to do that, and everything's been checked and counter checked
(04:53):
and triple quadriple check. Because I don't necessarily want to
be up. If we have a car crash on Interstate
I have some control. Okay, even if there's car more
cars coming, I can get up and run away. I
can do something. I can't do nothing.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
There's a reason we drive to South Dakota absolutely to
go hunting once a year. There's a reason we drive.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I mean, I don't know that I will fly again.
I mean maybe I will, maybe I won't. But the
chances I can tell you that over the last few years,
the chances of me getting killed in a plane crash
dressing astronomically, I hadn't been on a plane in a while.
And here's the thing. I'm not afraid to fly. I
don't have a problem flying. I recognize there's a risk,
but I also look at the statistics, and you are
(05:35):
more likely to get killed on the roadway than you
are up there, and it's not it's not necessarily I
relate this back to carrying a gun on my person.
It's not necessarily the likelihood of death that scares me
so much. It's the loss of control, the fact that
I have zero control. People go, well, why do you
(05:56):
carry a gun where you go? Because if I have
a gun, I mean, I hope I never have to
use it, all right, but at least I have some
control over the outcome of a fight. They go, well,
you don't need a gun to fight. Maybe I don't
need a gun to fight. Maybe maybe maybe I don't
need maybe just maybe I need my words and my
body language is all I need. But ultimately, at the
(06:18):
far end of the spectrum, I can pull a gun
and in this thing anytime I choose, I have control
over the outcome of any conversation that I have. Ultimately,
in ninety nine point nine nine percent of the infant
just nine point nine, I'm never gonna use a gun.
But I know that at the far end of that discussion,
(06:41):
if I want my way, I'm gonna get my way.
I am in control of the world I live in.
I said, some degree, I.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Can simplify that I ain't gonna die for lack of
shooting back.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
Well, there you go, There you go.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
Are y'all ever get in a situation you're at the
grocers or whatever, and something happens, you can you're prepared
to not run, But.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I'm I'm telling you run it. Going away from the
problem is first and foremost my plan. I want to
get as far away from that, you know. I mean,
but that if you're going to carry a gun and
be sensible about things, the first objective is to get away.
That is the one certain way to win a fight
is to not have a fight. So if you can
remove yourself, that's what you need to do. Unless there's
(07:22):
somebody there that needs to protected, and I could, yeah,
unless there's somebody needs protecting me and my family or
somebody else. But right, and that's exactly right. But first
and foremost, if it's just me and I can walk away,
and I don't care if it makes me, if I
lose face or this is not the you know, the
meet you on the field of honor kind of stuff.
You don't have that attitude. You know, I'm gonna stand
up for myself because I'm because I can stand up. Well,
(07:44):
I'm gonna stand up for myself too. But I ain't
never been in a fist fight. From from fifth five
years old to now, I ain't never been in a
fight that I ain't get skinned up, you know. I mean,
they just don't have it. If you get in a fight,
you gonna get skinn up.
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Now I've seen you, I'm not say well, I'm still
hurting from some of those that the injury might come
later because you've seen you come out ahead. Ahead's good.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
I didn't say i'd ever lost one. I just said
it always hurts after the fact.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
When I teach the matra, I teach for the the
mantra of the protector, and I use this for law
enforcement users a lot. But this is for everybody. Is
that when you are armed, you don't walk into a
room with the attitude is I'm the baddest dude in here.
You walk in there with the attitude that everybody in
here is safer because I am here, because I carry
(08:36):
myself when away, and I arm myself when I prepare
myself in a way that I can help control the
outcome of a bad situation in the world that I'm in.
You know, my little circle of influence may be small,
but it's but it's the people that I'm around are safer.
Even people I don't like, even people I don't agree with,
Even people that may hate the fact that I have
a gun, that may hate what I stand for, They're
(08:58):
still there. I will protect them too. Now I'm not going.
I might not step in front of a bus for
somebody that's cursing me out, calling me a bunch of names,
and I see them about getting run over. I may
not sacrifice my long life for them. I may go, man,
that's karma, but I will certainly, I will certainly, I
will certainly do everything I can to help them. But
(09:20):
you know, and that's just, that's just I don't know.
So I want the world and I expect the government
the place of the go and if the government takes responsibility,
you need to take responsibility. When you say this is
what we're going to regulate and we're going to do it,
then you need to make sure you do it. I mean,
just because people just blindly follow I've fallen on the
(09:44):
skid of a helicopter and looked at the pilot and
knew he was a little touched, but still did it anyway,
because I knew he was good at what he was doing.
We'll be back in a minute. Have you been diagnosed
with a herniated disc or arthritis in your back or neck?

(10:53):
the breaks, we get half the We could recorded a
whole segment right there on the break when we were
so we were talking about some of the confirmations and stuff,
and you know, this is getting a lot of attention.
That is, I mean, it's it's interesting. I like something.
I don't have time to sitting there and watch the
whole but I like, I liked what cash Betel said,
grant from now when we get down to a minute
or two minutes something. I thought it was, you.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Have to.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
Just you have two minutes.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Wow. Wow, I'd love to sit here for three hours
and read the whole transcript. You got two minutes.
Speaker 1 (11:26):
That takes ball there. Here's the thing. Well, we're gonna
do because because that's just advice and consent and Trump,
you know Trump and J. D. Vance said, well, you know,
we're the president. Do what he wants to. You know,
it's just advice and consent. And he'll appoint him however,
because there's ways he can get them in eat.
Speaker 2 (11:42):
Yeah, that's not that's not a cabinet position. I don't
think that has to be. Uh whattif I like.
Speaker 1 (11:48):
That the FBI got involved in some of the migrant
detentions and stuff, illegal detentions or not that that the
detentions are illegal, it's just you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
The criminal, the criminal out chasing the bag.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
This new press secretary, she's there talking about, Well you
don't understand, you're talking about which one's committed crimes. Well,
they're all they all broke, they're all criminals by default.
And I see people we've been criminal about that.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
It's Hope says, it's a disgrace that what we're doing
having a border. The Pope and that guy I just
passed the law. If you go on the Vatican, they
put you in prison or charge you a huge.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
If you say, have you ever seen the Vatican, he's gonna.
Speaker 4 (12:33):
Say that Trump he's doing the same thing.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
That's just crazy. Did you have ever seen ever seen
pictures or been to the Vatican. I've been to the Vatican.
Really yeah, they have. They have what's called the Swiss
Guard at the Vatican, and every entrance it is a fort.
It is completely walled, it ain't fenced. It's got these
big huge marble, this big you know wall around it.
It's in the middle of room and it's got this
(12:57):
big wall around it. And they have armed guards, like
militarily armed guards. They got the fancy, fancy dressed up
looking ones. Now that the Swiss Guard are wearing all
these old Middle Ages looking uh suits and stuff. But
they got guys with machine guns at every gate, yeah,
every gate, and they're walking around and playing clothes and that.
(13:17):
It is one of the most police state looking places
you've ever been.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
To tear us out, they have like a bullet poop.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, and that's after John Paul got shot years ago.
They did started doing that. But I'm saying is if
you it's it's his, his little kingdom, that is truly
his little kingdom in the middle of Rome. Is it's
it's his country private, it's its own country country, it's
its own entity, and it is a walled, fortified, heavily
armed borders you know.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
So who you talking to? Ye, I mean, it's the whole.
It's it's a far cry from the Roman Empire, you know,
back when the you know, there's there's empires and countries
and they basically their own little country on that high
remning square miles.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
They got there, not even I don't think it's square miles.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
But to live like that, and that goes right back
to the liberals that are that are well had nice
homes with gates and fences and stuff, and saying that you.
Speaker 2 (14:15):
Know, at least to come move the homeless people from
in front of their house.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
Yeah, I mean, you know, we want we want everybody
else to suffer, but we don't want to suffer ourselves.
And you know, it's just that same thing. It boils
all the way. It's local, it's regional, it's statewide, it's whatever.
People are all about liberal policies and bringing people and
providing it. They don't want them in their yard, they
don't want them on their street, but they're okay with
them spill them over into somebody else's neighborhood. Was it's
(14:42):
not their neighborhood, you know, and it was like you
got to California's all right, well we don't want to
do this, and we don't want to do that, and
then their neighborhood burns.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
For people coming to this country that want to work,
assimilate and contribute to our to our society, I am
one hundred percent they should. They should fix the immigration problem. Yes,
and that is fast. We've got the technology. If they
want to come here, live here, work here, pay taxes,
and go to school and learn our language and assimilate
(15:12):
and become Americans. That's what America is all that is
the melting.
Speaker 4 (15:16):
Did y'all see all the ones that were protesting at
the colleges. Trump's done tother thing to college?
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah, go home.
Speaker 4 (15:24):
They don't want to play some in the back.
Speaker 3 (15:26):
Dad another courthouse the other day that they come here
and they're testing the them the deportation a bunch of
that's fine.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
They might not want their picture taking the fair student
because they've they're going to get deported right back on
over there. I'm telling any of they have a take away.
They're not citizens of this country. Okay, they're not citizens
of this country. And I and I am one hundred
percent because I have friends have migrated here from other
countries and they have businesses and they are fans, tasting
(15:55):
people and their families are welcome.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
Right.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
But there's a process, and I promise you the ones
that I'm friends with, they followed the process. They went,
they jumped through the hoops, they did everything right. And
I'm talking about from India, I'm talking about from Mexico.
I'm talking about from other places that have come here.
And these are valuable members, I promise you. Cash Patail's
ancestors probably filled out a form before he came over here.
And now he's about to run the FBI.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Let me pose this to you. Let's let's save me.
And you jumped in my boat, drove it across the
ocean over there, and we landed on the shores of Spain.
But just a hypothetical. My bat is big enough to
do that. But if we jumped up in the boat
and run across the ocean over there and landed in
another country and jumped out and run up to one
of their courthouses, to their capitol building, and started protesting
(16:38):
about how they run their business, I would expect to
go to jail.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
We run down to Quiba. Do that You're about to
make it to Cuba? Yeah, we didat good until we
got caught.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Smoke a couple of good cigars.
Speaker 3 (16:51):
Yeah. But why these protesters all seemed to they put
this petuli all, who thinks that stuff smells good?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
That's nasty? Why are you getting close enough to smell it?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
Why was it the courthouse?
Speaker 2 (17:04):
You get down when I smell?
Speaker 3 (17:06):
Surely, all if you hadn't figured out I got a
sensitive nose.
Speaker 1 (17:09):
I got some stuff in there. It smells pretty close
to it that I didn't know. It smells about every
now and then you got a defunc place.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I walk I walk into Charlie's Alicer now and then
I said, man, you've been harboring hippies in here or something.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
It's supposed to smell like it smell like gunpowder and
gun old, but it smells like all them others. Way,
I don't know, but it smells better than what it
does smell like in there.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
Sometimes you need to get something that smells like hoppies
number nine.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Well, that's what I'm trying to find, is something they
make all this stuff and they say, well it's this,
this is It smells like you know, campfires and and
you know the soap that we sell out. I use
that stuff and it smells good. It smells good. Stuff
smells so good. And every day I get up take
a shower and I saw two baits.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, oh yeah, I try.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
There's different sense. And man, it's just I love starting
today smelling that stuff. And I'm looking for something that
goes in. One of those little missing things has the
same smell.
Speaker 2 (18:01):
Well, you know what hoppy is number nine smells like bananas.
Speaker 1 (18:05):

which you know, God bless him.
Speaker 2 (22:14):

Speaker 1 (22:18):
So one time I'll tell a quick story. Remember Dusty Miller. Oh,
Dusty told a story one time. He said, I went
out to a report of a theft, and a lady said,
I walked out my house to get my paper, and
I've bent over and looked between my legs and my
scooter was gone. And her her little scooter that was
parked up by the house. That's when she noticed that
(22:40):
it was missing.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
Is your back killing you from sitting at an uncomfortable
desk all day? Do you have pain radiating down your
leg or down the arm? Called doctor Joseph Miller d
C at the Tallahassee Spine Center and ask about spinal
decompression therapy at eight five zero five eight, n you
row five to two, five to two.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Are you tired of that chainsaw that never starts when
you need it? Do you spend your whole weekend fighting
your old lawnmower? It doesn't have to be that way.
South Side Mower has been serving to Tallahassee and surrounding
areas for thirty nine years. They have a wide range
of hus Varna, Gravely and ex smart lawnmowers, still chainsaws, tremors, edges,
and blowers, as well as generators, pressure washers and more.

outdoor power equipment, or it's time to purchase new equipment,
stop by south Side Moors at eighteen eighty five South
in Roe Street, one mile south of the Capitol, or
visit the website southside more dot com. And we're back
so here. We got a couple of trade shows coming up.
(23:44):
I'm going to one without you. That's the first. That's
like a first. Yeah, I'll never go. I don't. I
don't go to these things without you.
Speaker 2 (23:49):
And Corey went went to Las Vegas one time, yeah, Shay,
without me. I don't remember exactly why, but you did
and I.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Was well after me. You and Corey went one year
and it almost got out of hand. I figured maybe
we need it back too.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
Uh yeah, one in Vegas coming over, uh that they.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Just had that and everybody I talked to it it
was out there, came back with the crud. There's a
thing called the shot show crud. You put eighty thousand
people in a big building together from all over the world,
I mean all over the world. Every country that has
guns and businesses and industry, they're all there, and all
those germs get together.
Speaker 2 (24:24):
The last time we all, me, you and Jesse went
out there, y'all both got real bad sick. And that
was the week the year of COVID came right about
the same time COVID was showing up in the.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
First through that airport. That guy was in that airport
with COVID that same weekend we were in there. I
ain't so sure that we the ones brought it back
to Florida. I know, I got sick as a dog.
I hain't been that sick, but then I got COVID
again later, So yeah, whatever, they just don't ever want
that headache again. But I know it. But those things
(24:57):
typically now we got what Jay didn't have done. We
we've quit going to the big trade show. We go
to the regional or the manifact or the distributor specific one.
So we go to a company called amchar Up and
Savannah every year and take the wives generally and just
kind of make a weekend out of it and by
most of you know, a lot of stuff that we
(25:17):
buy throughout the year, see new products and on and
then we're going to a new one that we haven't been.
It's not new, but we haven't been.
Speaker 2 (25:23):
Yeah, and this first time they've done it. This time, Yeah,
this is I think this is a brand new thing
for one of our distributors to do this. I think
that's I think you're seeing going to see a lot
more of that because people are tired of traveling. The
Shot Show is run by NSSF National Sports Shooting Federation
is who kind of sponsors the Shot Show, and they
used to do it. It was two years in Vegas
(25:45):
and one year in Orlando. Two years of Vegas, one
year in Orlando. So we've been a few of them
in Orlando. Well, the show, the number of vendors outgrew
everywhere else in the world to do it but the
Sands Convention Center, and now it's out we're on the
Sins Convention Center and has morphed and grown over into
Caesar's Palace or one of the other I mean, and
(26:06):
got there to those casinos. Sometimes you don't know when
you leave one and get to the other one, except
the decorations change and the the you know, the changes
left one and gone to the other. But it's it's
just so big now that and anyway, we don't we
don't have a table. We don't set up a table
(26:26):
for the Holstra company anymore. And it's just hate it.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
It was it was work going getting a palette full
of stuff shipped out there. And then and we used
to go down our ratios too, and we would set
up a booth there, and you know, we crunch some
numbers and realize that we just weren't like a lot
of smaller manufacturers are starting daring over at Richt. It
Still he doesn't set up a booth that these things anymore,
he says, you know, it's just you know, they ain't
(26:51):
worth it.
Speaker 2 (26:52):
It ain't worth it.
Speaker 3 (26:52):
Now you're all going to the show to buy products.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
Now, Well, we started out and then we I don't know,
we've been back and forth. We were researching back in
the beginning. But now we now we're just buyers. We
don't we don't try to sell anything you get. You know,
we still have a holster company, but we don't hand
out holster cards and stuff. We just don't just not
We're not in the distributorship like that anymore. It's mostly
custom stuff here through the store. And if you listen
(27:16):
to the show and you want a custom holster, you
know we do that here. You want some crossdraw chess
mounted rig or you know the fight bears with, or
you want some little pocket holster whatever, we do. All
that stuff here is rifle, custom rifle, slings, winging graves
from New.
Speaker 4 (27:32):
York that had your holster. As soon as I mentioned talent,
he's like, oh, I know them, I got one.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Yeah, I mean, you know. But when we got down
the holster business, we were doing really really well, and
then everybody, everybody else got in it, and then we
would have had to spend as much money marketing as
we made, and it just got to the point where
we're just gonna focus on guns and training and the
gun range and local folks and we don't need somebody
in Spokane, Washington knowing who we are, although we do
(27:59):
send holsters up there for the right one. Maybe not Spokane,
but you know places like that.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
We get to Spokane, Spokane, and.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
It depends on where you know where you're from.
Speaker 2 (28:08):
If you're from you, if you from Dry Creek south
of Ariana, it's probably Spokane. Kind of like cocaine.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
You come, you come to can you come to where
I live and we'll teach you how you supposed to
say stuff and then you can take that back home. Okay,
it's like supposed to you say syllables. It's fit. It's
more efficiency down there.

so I go when I meet her yesterday, and I
look up there and man, you're talking about pretty these turkeys.
(31:51):
She's got them. And apparently she had slaughtered turkeys a
few days before, and she had this spare hen because
she got tired of killing them all, so one and
got the reprieve. I think it's sweet. The turkey's name Sweetye.
So she had one, she had one set back to
keep for breeding purposes, and Sweetye was running around the yard.
(32:12):
Was sweety watched all this happen apparently, And she goes,
I got tired and we let her live. And so
she sent me a picture of that one. So we're going,
you know, sweetie and Jacob who was the tom? And
I'm sorry, So I go, I get this. She goes, well,
how about this? Is this? This this he an't gonna

She goes, this is one I was gonna keep sweety.
I ain't seen her in a couple of days.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
She left way too somebody.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
She's out there somewhere, and so you know, you know me,
I only hear about what people say. All right, Well, okay,
don that's beautiful. Hen, that's that's fine with me. He goes, Okay, we'll, we'll, we'll, we'll. Well, well,
Jacob is he likes women. He's been raised by women.
He will. And they're over there, her and her just
petting this bird, scratching his head and he's loving it.
He's leaning into it. And I'm like, cool, we got
(32:57):
a pet. She goes, well, he doesn't really like strange men.
And I said, I'm on a stranger now. And so
we load those things. See. She catches them, puts them
in in the dog kenneling back of the car, drive
them home, get there before dark. I'm putting them in
a big dog kettle. I got some chicken wire over
the top. Say they don't get out. And because I
(33:19):
don't know, domestic turkeys can't fly, but they can flap,
and I don't know what breeds they are, and there's
certain breeds. There's one breede which is a black Spanish
that can's leggedly flying. I'm like, well, I don't know.
I don't want to get out, so I opened the
dog kettle in there, get all square away. They won't
come out because they've roosted for the night. It's dark
at that point in time. So this morning, I go
down there and I'm going to introduce myself to the turkeys.
(33:40):
I want, this is home, guys, this is home. I want.
I put some feed and some water down there. Some
wee's on down there. The dogs are in the house
and nothing to disturb them. I'm going to go down here.
I got me some little meal worms, little grub worms,
dried worms, and I opened the I opened the cage
and I took a step in the pen. And apparently
Jacob doesn't like strange men. And all of a sudden,
(34:02):
I get, I get and I'm looking at that gum
spurs and got my leg. I mean, he's coming at
me now and I'm trying to get out the fence.
But I don't want him to get out the fence.
So I got a face full of big old Tom
turkey I'm talking about. This thing is huge. He's a
year old, and I mean, and he's making all this
racket and just you know how they'll get out there
(34:24):
and fight. Well, apparently he thought I was worth fighting.
And it wasn't stay out of my pen fighting. It
was letting me out and I will whip your butt fighting.
This thing is trying to get on me. Now I've
dropped a bag of grub worms and I don't want
him to shred that thing up.
Speaker 2 (34:39):
You know, Please tell me d cameras.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
I don't know. I'll go back and look. So so
I opened the gate and I reach in and he
comes after my arm and I'm like whoa, whoa wo
So I go in there, and you know, if you
got a dog that's jumping on you like Lily does
all the time, you put your knee out there. Uhh.
I finally had to kick came in the chest to
get him back far enough. I may not like hurting pricking,
but flushing with my yeah, that's what exactly pushed him
(35:07):
back there. Least in there, snatched that bag out, shut
the gate closed, it, made sure it lassed, and walked
around there and I'm like, let me just kneel down
and calm down and then calm him down, maybe feed
him some. He tried to get me through the fence.
Speaker 3 (35:22):
I mean he's talking about maybe putting a wig on it.
Speaker 1 (35:27):
And on that. Well I want Well, here's the thing
is so so apparently he likes women. So when my
sixteen year old gets home today, I'm put her in
the pen with him and see what's a.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
Great idea, HRS Child Abuse. You'll be ready for this
call and it's probably true.
Speaker 1 (35:45):
Well, so, so I sent her text and I said, hey,
what what breed? What breed? This goes well? Yesterday I
said some word I can't pronounce. But the girls a
full bronze and he's a black Spanish, which is the
one that can fly in a bronze mix years. Oh no,
I'm guessing Jacob's acting up. He's funny about men. He
was raised by women. Lets my uncle Patty. But he
(36:06):
hates my brother in law. And if it gets to
be a problem, you can bring him back and I
will get you some cat something else on the property. Menion.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
No, I'm talking about high brass. We can we can
handle this.
Speaker 1 (36:18):
I'm gonna tough it out and we're gonna, we're gonna,
we're gonna tame this turkey.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Why do you put him? Akay, bring him to the
show next week?
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Yeah, the lot and say we did. I got some
high I got some high brass. Number five. That bull
of choke handled that situation.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
I whispered.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
I have I have never had a domestic since I
was a kid. And my grandma and me walked out
in the cow pasture and we had to hold herd
of cows walk us out into the pond and just
she was like, oh, they're coming after us. And I
don't think they actually were. I think they just wanted
to deep Yeah, And I have never had a domestic
animal animal other than like a vicious dog that bit me,
(36:56):
scare me like that. But that thing come after me
and it's not like but it surprised me, and that
wasn't what I was expecting. I'm thinking, this is a
tame animal. He's going to let me go on, right,
And maybe he won't. Maybe he won't let me petty
my chickens. I have to kind of catch them. Well,
I do have a he come after me and he
was mad.
Speaker 4 (37:13):
I can tell the difference between a male and a female bath?
How do you what's the difference? How do you do?
Speaker 1 (37:18):
On the quail? All the white depending on the breed.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
But the roasters have a white strip on their eyes
in their head they got little white strips, and the
hens have a dark brown.
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Birds birds and the birds the kingdom. The male bird
is always more attractive than the female bird in the
male the bird kingdom.
Speaker 4 (37:37):
But you don't have to, you know, when you're out
there quill hunt, you don't say only can you the male?
Speaker 1 (37:41):
Like seconds picture, see that the light tan stripes on
that on that bird's head, those would be white if
that was a male. That's a female. Okay, okay? And
the and the industry. When I caught these birds for her,
I'm going through there, normally, I just scoop them up
in a net. I've got my cardboard box or opening
(38:03):
up and I'll just feel how many lumpses into net
and I'll just dump them in the box. And uh,
I'll always be careful, maybe throwing an extra when you
old Baker's does in philosophy. And but I don't care
which I got males or female. I don't care. But
when I was going to these I actually caught them
like one at the time with the net, and I
was real gentle with them. And I'm catching them, I'm
looking at them, checking to make sure they're healthy, you know,
(38:25):
and these birds are this is I'm like, here, you
get to live a little longer because normally when I
catch them, they're gonna be dead within twenty four hours.
If somebody's gonna shoot, well, they're gonna get shot at.
They may live.
Speaker 3 (38:37):
This is a Spanish Spanish black black Spanish turkey. You

I got a plan. We need to put some We
need to put some stobs in the ground with a
little loop on them. We're gonna tie another end of that.
We're gonna give us a string tied to the leg
and put them out there in the field, down in
the corner, and come turkey season, we just walk them
out there, get them tamed up good and we'll tie.
We have some five decoys.
Speaker 3 (39:13):
Yeah, but you gotta. I mean, you're gonna get illegal
alien turkeys coming up because.
Speaker 2 (39:19):
You've got a green card. They're employed.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
This breed was immigrated into fifteen hundred. So they've been
here long enough.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
Okay, all right. They assimilated the naturally the natural boy.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
They were here before my ancestors, about one hundred years.

Speaker 2 (40:38):
It's a driving I'm sort hug lining.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
See we're so in this segment, we're going to try
to cover three cents fishing stuff with Paul because they
bite bass bass teams at the collegiate level. With Fred
because he saw he saw one from from Alabama and
JD's peacock story.
Speaker 2 (40:58):
So go ahead. Fred brought up that they had peacocks,
which there's peacocks all over Clarna Lake experiently that it
is illegal to use live decoys. I'm just making a joke,
So game Wardens, I'm joking, maybe.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
We have peacocks you had? Yeah, yeah, they had so
bena be for sneaking away. They look like burglar alarm.
Speaker 1 (41:17):
Oh yeah, then what's your peacock story.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
So my father in law, mother in law and father
in law lived out of Miami until about five or
six years ago. They moved up here. Well, they had
a big, big yard for Miami about two acres, and
all of a sudden, these peacocks started showing up into
about yards. I ain't told about one or two of them.
I'm talking about like fifteen of them. We went down
there to visit one time and there's all these peacocks
in the backyard and my mother in law says, yeah,
(41:40):
they just showed up here. So we started feeding them.
And she'd had foxes and she fed everything that came
through the yard, and Uh, anyway, they were just enjoyed
watching the peacocks. Well, they had a big fifth wheel
camper out there part and then peacocks got up on
the roof of that camper and did twenty something thousand
dollars worth of damage to the roof of that camper
(42:01):
because you know, campers have that membrane, the waterproof membrane
for a roof on the camper. And they got up
there and what well, they parted it as a little
scrub boat out there, and it drop acorns on the
roof of the camper out there, and then peacocks got
it there. I guess they were they were scratching, just
like they're scratching the ground looking for something to eat,
(42:22):
and they just shredded. I mean absolutely, And I told
I asked my father, and I said, had the things
taste He goes, I don't know. I said, let's find out.
Speaker 3 (42:32):
It tastes like turkey from what I hear.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
Yeah, I imagine it being.
Speaker 4 (42:35):
A story about guineas.
Speaker 3 (42:36):
Y'all know what.
Speaker 2 (42:37):
Oh yeah, they make good burglar alarms.
Speaker 4 (42:40):
The Lake city from my parents are from. And I
went with my pelt gun out hunting and I found
some of them things, and I was shooting. I got
my butt up.
Speaker 2 (42:49):
We had a pile of this.
Speaker 1 (42:51):
I didn't.
Speaker 2 (42:52):
I didn't. They got their eggs. They lay eggs. They'll
lay eggs in it'll be a pyramid about twelve inches tall,
just a mound of eggs as guinea fowl.
Speaker 3 (43:02):
Guinea eggs.
Speaker 2 (43:02):
Oh yeah, they're delicious. They're delicious, almost perfectly round. They're
very round. They're they're between a quail egg and a
chicken egg. They're like a small chicken egg. But they're
almost they're not real oblong egg shaped. They're they're more round.
But then I used to go look around, I'd find
them guinea nest and you just find a pyramid, a big, old,
tall mound of eggs and not going there and steal
(43:24):
them eggs and out of the nest and cook them.
When I was a kid, we used to have a
bunch of them. They beat great burglar alarm anyway, so
they didn't think.
Speaker 1 (43:33):
So Fred, you saw you saw them.
Speaker 3 (43:35):
And there's a took a picture of it on Interstate
Troy University bass team. Guy's got a nice bass boat.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
Yeah, foreign concept to him.
Speaker 4 (43:46):
There's one hundred and fifty colleges that have bass teams
kids growing.
Speaker 1 (43:51):
The last Can you get a scholarship?
Speaker 4 (43:53):
Yes, absolutely, full ride.
Speaker 1 (43:55):
Fred said, I want a major in bassts. I don't
think they made man, if.
Speaker 2 (43:58):
They'd have had bass fishing for I tell you child,
they're actually today. Well, I have promised my fifteen year
old that I will take her to the to the
boat basin on Sunday afternoon. For the way in Saturday
and Sunny. She's done boat of craven on some of
the little boy on the bass team and fish.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
He's probably a good kid. Yeah, where's the where is
it at the basin?
Speaker 2 (44:21):
What boat basin in Bambridge right there at twenty seven
from Georgia.
Speaker 3 (44:25):
Man, So that's where they're having the tournament.
Speaker 2 (44:27):
That's where they're fishing at of is there the way
and it's probably started three there's gonna be two undred
boats in it.
Speaker 4 (44:33):
So anybody's playing on going to elect someone on this weekend,
it's going to be crowded.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
It'll be busy this time of the year. Like Simonold
on the weekends gets very crowded.
Speaker 4 (44:40):
There's one tournament, bigger tournament. But we got a lot
of win today. I was out there, you know, Bobby Williams.
I was out with him this morning. We were catching
the crop. It was fun. But them boats are running
by the I love high school fishing. Think it's the
best thing since Ray Scott started bast you know, it's
really good. But brothers, some folks, the kids said they
(45:01):
want to fish and they go buy a boat and
they really don't know it. Don't have brakes, you know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (45:07):
That's there.
Speaker 4 (45:08):
It's you. I see some stuff. We see that every
I'm hoping nobody gets hurted. Every year somebody is an accident.
It's weird, you see that.
Speaker 2 (45:17):
I think the high school tournaments make the kids can't
actually operate the boat, the big motor on the boat.
They can they operate the troll of motor and the fish,
but they have to have a captain to drive them around,
and little fish usually are all grown hopefully a grown
grown adult drinking. Yeah, yeah, you don't definitely want to
be frown on that. But man, the crappie fishing has
(45:39):
been exceptional. We've caught some giants today, we call I'll
show you a picture of it. What's the water temperature
fifty one and a half today? So when does the
baths start biting the rattle traps?
Speaker 1 (45:49):
Right?
Speaker 4 (45:49):
And they've already been doing it. Okay, so they're biting
rattle traps right, yes, sir, rattle traps, crank baits. That's
been working with this warming trend. I'm noticing a lot
of the croppi are starting to move from their winter
and areas kind of transition to where they're gonna be spawning.
But the bass are going to start moving shallow, probably
this weekend. I bet they're gonna every day. It's gonna
it's warming up. I think that water temperature hit seventy
(46:11):
four fifty five today and fifty weeked about a.
Speaker 3 (46:14):
March bed for bass.
Speaker 4 (46:17):
Yeah, well, really the crapill start bedding in February about
the middle of February and then they on bed this weekend.
It's coming, and then the bass will start right with them,
because and I've on seminole, I've seen bass bed all
the way into September.
Speaker 2 (46:32):
Really, it's kind of like.
Speaker 4 (46:33):
They push in March in April.
Speaker 2 (46:35):
But there's the vast majority of the fish will do
will bed at a certain time, and then you'll have
these and it's kind of like we see deer. We
see it here with spots. You know, in the late fall,
early winter you'll have you know, birth to a fawn
where all the rest of the fawn are born in
around here in July, so you'll have that late that.
Speaker 4 (46:56):
What I always seen on seminoles, the middle sections first,
then the lower in and D of the dam, then
up the rivers.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
Okay, so because Central Florida, I guess they bed around there.
They've been bedding.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
They've been been since now there since well central Florida,
okachob since October.
Speaker 3 (47:11):
But the main bed like when you hear, you know,
you see those big marchass.
Speaker 4 (47:17):
March, March, depending on the weather, usually March. Your place
probably might be the full moon in February.
Speaker 1 (47:24):
I bet that place.
Speaker 2 (47:25):
Yeah, water warmer water, it's all. It's all relative to
the to the water temperature and the depth of the lake,
and all that stuff has the magic number that you
can put on the calendar.
Speaker 4 (47:36):
I was catching. There was a hundreds of thousands of
cropping down the lake. Well, the water started warming up
down the lake, and they seemed like they left. And
as the as I saw, I went up the river
and the water where tempert was colder, where we called
them with CJ. And they've been catching there all week beggins.
(47:57):
But they're starting to move shallow for sure.
Speaker 1 (48:00):
I got a book that I ordered the other day,
well I actually didn't order it. I was in CBS
in line and look back there in this book called
Life along the Apalachicola River by a guy named Jim McClellan.
Now Mr McClellan grew up in Bluntstown, so below the dam,
and he's I don't know how old he is, but
(48:20):
he he writes like he's might be just a few
years older than me, you know, it's could be about
same age, a little bit older. But he talks about
his grant great his grandfather and his father and a
fish camp down on it's not lake. I'm on you
I'm on your lake. It's down somewhere around Bluntstown. It's
like an old watchbow up in there. And they got
(48:41):
a camp camp there that used to be one of
the timber cump neil Neil timber neil Land camp land,
and and it's down down that a way and he's
he's it's I got about two more chapters and I'm
gonna bring it and let you all ready. And it's
a good book in the I'm reading the stories and
all this stuff about the history and the deer deer
(49:05):
hunting when you know, his dad just wore a shirt
and khakis and you know, regular shoes and whatever ball
cap somebody gave him, and on and on. I mean,
it's just it's but here's the thing is, I'm reading
this book and he's talking about oyster pearls, you know,
in the in their head and all this kind of stuff,
(49:26):
just and uh and doing fish fries and talking about
how mullet and you can't get elected in the South
without having a mullet fry. You know, you got to
have a fish fry. And he talks about some of
the terminology and stuff like that, and it's it's all
local stuff. And I'm sitting there reading these stories and
I'm going, man, we need to write a book because
there's there's uh because and I was and the whole
(49:46):
time I'm reading this, I'm thinking about JD. And I'm going, well,
you know, he's just a few miles upstream.
Speaker 2 (49:51):
And I guarantee I've been on some of the water
he's talking about. I promise you that that's you know,
there ain't much of that river. I haven't been on
it something.
Speaker 1 (49:57):
But the thing is, you know, it's it's it's it's
it's cool to see somebody local write a book. Now
you find it in the it was in the little
book section at CBS where you buy the books on
They put all the local flavor books in there, where
you know, you can read about the air history in
Florida and so it's none of that interesting me. I
saw this book and I picked it up in like
(50:18):
twenty books. It's a good read's you read the whole
thing in the day if you sat down and just
focused on it. It's taken me to evenings to get
through all of it. But like the last chapter and
I'm and that's me still scrolling on the internet. But
I'll bring it in. Unlet y'all read it and pass
it around, and it's it's interesting. But at the same
point we've told we've told just as funny as stories,
(50:40):
if not funnier right here on this show. You know,
it's just it's just an accumulation of of you know,
the culture which we seriously seriously identify with. I mean,
so it's it's nice to read somebody else's you know what,
is the same reason people listening to the show when
they listen to us, you've identify.
Speaker 2 (51:00):
That if you ever want to read a really good book.
Robert Rourke wrote the book The Old Man and the
Boy and it was based on Robert Rourke's He used
to write a column in the back of sports Field
or Outdoor Life or whatever, and it's the same kind
of stuff. And I identify heavily with that book. It
was my English teacher gave it to me in high school.
Speaker 3 (51:20):
So Robert Rorke Old Man and the Boy.
Speaker 1 (51:23):
Yes, well, we'll be uh, that could be anyway. We'll
be back next week.
