The Doug Pike Show 10-20-24

In this episode Doug talks about the geese traveling to othr parts of Texas. Those trout should be getting bigger. I would thinks so. Doug talksabout  fishing with his friends form the newspaper and what he did to become a better fisherman. How to tell if a snake is venomous...let me see... is it Red-Black or is it Red-Yellow. Well, you can't judge by this method because the color method does not apply. Best bet their all venomous. Doug talks about smart Deer and how they know patterns of hunters.Fishing stories in Hawaii, Hunting stories and where the Bass fish are hiding. Plus a whole lot more.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
This is the Doug Pike Show, brought to you by
American Shooting Centers Guns Shooting at Instruction since nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Now here's dog Pike. Never a doubt.

Speaker 3 (00:14):
I'm Elvin.

Speaker 2 (00:18):
If you all could only have seen you.

Speaker 4 (00:20):
We need to get this TV thing started up for
Saturday and Sunday morning. We really do, Melvin, and I
think you're in a position to just throw your weight
around and say, look, we gotta do this.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Wouldn't it be fun? I've been trying, have you, Yeah?
I have? That just tells me how little they care.

Speaker 4 (00:37):
Then if they won't even listen to you, I think
they're coming around?

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Are they now happen? Be patient? Tell I'll tell it.
I'll shave every Saturday and Sunday morning if I have to. Oh,
I know. If that's what it takes, I'm prepared. Who
keeps putting stuff in my backpack? In my bags?

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Every time I pick something up, it feels heavier. I squear,
And it couldn't be that I'm getting old. There's no way, really,
that's Oh lordy, Hey, I've got an issue in here.

Speaker 2 (01:04):
I need your help with Melboyne.

Speaker 4 (01:06):
No, I'll keep chitty chatting, but I've got a coffee
cup in here that's leaking, and if you could possibly
just run down the hollyway pour this in. Come on down. Wow,
who time out, We've gotta we've got to deal with this.
Look at this thing, man, what a train wreck. Yeah,

(01:29):
let's just do that and I'll come back for more.
The paper towels are over there, if you'll throw me one.
Oh gosh, what a nightmare.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
Now that.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
Now that mister fancy pants Adam and mister fancy pants
other Adam are in here doing TV, they don't leave
anything up on the console in here, and that makes
it impossible for me to just reach over and grab
a paper towel.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
I have to walk all the way around, all the
way around the desk. I will get it all. We'll
get her all knocked down.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
If I have to, I'll go back over to my
desk and get a bottle of Incredible and bring it
over here. There's a little bit of a stain on
here from this coffee, but I guarantee you Incredible will
make it go away. Seven one three. We'll get started
here in a second moment. Seven one three two seven ninety.
Email me Dougpike at iHeartMedia dot Com. Another beautiful day

(02:21):
in the outdoors, absolutely drop dead gorgeous, beautiful day.

Speaker 2 (02:25):
Gonna be that way for a couple more.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Maybe I still don't think, and I'm gonna take a
quick look. I got in here a little bit later
than I wanted to, so I'm not quite one hundred
percent ready to go, but I'm gonna take a look
at the weather, the official weather forecast for the next
four or five days. I've been watching daily and still
still am looking for the next true shot at rain,

(02:49):
and there's not one yet. Let me see where, see
where we fall with the seven day forecast. Just out
of curiosity, I'm betting. I'm betting there's none for the
whole seven days.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
And I'm right.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
So all of a sudden, we find ourselves in a
bit of a drier than normal condition, and I don't
know exactly how much water's left out there on the
prairies east and west of town to hold on to
what waterfowl continue to arrive on these north winds, and
we'll get some north Let me see if we've got
another little front this weekend or this week northeast wind

(03:28):
today it's gonna be northeast tomorrow going to be east northeast.
Big change there on Tuesday. Then Wednesday east southeast. It'll
turn around and get a little more humid. Oh, we
got gusts as high as twelve miles per hour on Thursday. Boy,

(03:51):
if ever, there was a good week to go fishing
Holy Cow Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday east winds at
eight with gusts to thirteen, which is really if it
turns out to be true. Typically the joke among fishermen
is that if they say ten to fifteen, you gotta

(04:13):
just add the two and it's gonna blow twenty five.
But hopefully they've fine tuned their forecasting since those little
little jabs at the weather people used to be pretty popular,
and they're a little bit closer. It actually was much
calmer this morning than it was yesterday morning, even, and

(04:33):
I think that's the way it's supposed to go for
about the whole week. It is kind of disturbing and concerning, honestly,
that there's no rain in the forecast for another whole week.
That's a long time we've been without rain at my house,
I know for the at least two weeks. I would say,
does that sound about right, Melvin, that's dead on two weeks. Yeah,

(04:55):
two weeks no rain, and I'm not sure when we're
gonna get any more. I'm really not I would like,
you know, I hope, I hope the opening of deer
season doesn't fall into the same rut as dove season
and start start carrying rain one or two days before

(05:15):
the opener on a regular basis, although we could use it,
it's never fun to hunt in the mud. It's just
it's just not I don't care what you're hunting, I
don't care where you are. Well, I'm basing that on
personal experience after doing fourteen years of hunting in cold
mud on the prairie west of town and chasing waterfowl.

(05:38):
That's always my personal barometer is well, it used to be.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
It's not anymore. I put this over here.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
It used to be my personal barometer to kind of
judge what season we were in and or at least
that that happy day's waterfowl wise, we're here again. When
I would go out at night and hear gee, he's
flying over, and it was mostly snow geese, you'd hear
flying over because there were mostly snow geese migrating down here.

(06:09):
And speckabellies migrating tend to keep their mouth shut. I've
seen them up there with snow geese in broad daylight,
and it's you just don't hear them up there. You'll
hear the snow geese talking to each other every now
and then, but the specs don't really do that, nor
did the Canadas. To my recollection, I may be wrong
on that, but I haven't heard of snow goose come over.

(06:33):
And I think maybe it was once, maybe twice last winter,
not just waterfowl season, not just a couple of months,
but the entire winter. I only heard geese in there
a couple of times, and that is just so so
odd and so weird to me now, in fairness to
the migratory pattern. For a lot of the time that

(06:55):
I used to do that, I heard those geese because
I lived in Katie.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
Oh, it was kind of yeah, they were already there.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
But even my wife and I have been in this
house now for more than thirty years, and up until
a few years ago, i'd say, up until about eight
or ten years ago, there were still significant numbers of
geach trading back and forth at night, going wherever they
were going.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
Maybe they were new arrivals.

Speaker 4 (07:20):
Maybe they were changing from east side to west side, whatever.
Maybe they were going down toward the coast, but along.
And the short of it was, we always heard waterfowl
if we just stood outside for ten minutes. Now we don't,
so that's different. Very little else. Oh, by the way,
I've got to find this email. I wanted to get
to this very early because I'm so thrilled for this man.

(07:43):
Hang on, this is important. I've got to get it
off of alphabetical. I was trying to kill some emails
this morning. It was driving me crazy. Okay, let me
get back to the top of this list. I'm going
to go down from here. I'll acknowledge that email in
just a second. Down farther and farther and farther. Where

(08:04):
there he is, right there, Bam, Jeff. I hope you're
listening this morning. Man Jeff called a couple of saturdays
ago and was wanting to take his granddaughter fishing. And
I told him kind of how, when, where, what, what
to do and whatnot, and lo and behold, yesterday I

(08:25):
got an email. I got two emails, actually, one with
video and one with a snapshot of four you. I
thought it was five years old, but she's only four.
Four year old granddaughter first fish and that fish is
about how big do you think her first fish was Melvin?

(08:47):
Let you think, and it's his inches not an inch.
Don't worry, let's go eight inches half that maybe? What
you know what she called him about a four inch fish?
Nice and over the course of the day. I want
to say, where did it go. I want to say
they had five or six fish maybe on the day.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
There's a snapshot right there. That's pretty awesome.

Speaker 4 (09:12):
Little girls a little bit scared, he reports, but super excited,
had a blast, caught about six fish roughly three inches long.
According according to Jeff, we're gonna give her for you know,
we're gonna teach her how to be a fisherman.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Fishes three inches long, Yeah, it's a four we're rounding up.
That's a full four, pounding up three point one inches.
Round her up, four inch fish.

Speaker 4 (09:39):
I tell you work with bass fishermen a lot of times,
and there was some uh in bay fishing around here
along the Texas coast. There was always a joke between
fishermen from different bay systems on what a six pounder
was and is that now? Is that a Baffin Bay
six pound or is that a gal Bay six pounder,

(10:01):
Because the Galveston Bay six pounder, if you put it
on a scale, probably would weigh about four and a half.
A baff And Bay six pounder probably would weigh six
to six and a half. They're pretty close down there.
They have a lot of bigger fish down there. By
the way, there's some above average trout showing up already

(10:24):
down there where they belong down there in Baffin Bay.
And I suspect that this winter, barring anything really crazy
and bad happening, I suspect that this winter will be a.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
Very good one for big trout.

Speaker 4 (10:40):
And if you haven't made, if you're someone who fishes
with guides and you have a favorite, I would recommend
strongly getting on the phone and locking down a day
or two when you can go down there. Baffin's going
to be good. All that area down around Mansfield is
going to be good. There's going to be good trout
fishing up here for a little bit larger fish, I

(11:03):
think than we're accustomed to in the Galveston Bay system.
Been a couple of years since any significant numbers of
fish bigger than say, five or six pounds have come
out of the Galveston Bay system. But with this three
trout limit now already there is kind of cautious optimism,
if you will, that there's clearly a difference in the

(11:27):
number of a little bit bigger trout. It's going to
take them a year to get real big by any
base standard, but they will. They'll grow that weight, and
they'll get big eventually, and maybe we'll get back to
the point. I can remember fishing with James Flaud one
hundred years ago, and when he was young and I

(11:48):
was young, and we fished up here in Galveston quite
a bit together. I was very fortunate to be able
to ride around his boat with him and learn from
him some of the things that I never would have
learned on my own. Guys got so much experience he
and the whole crew, all those guys that I used
to get to fish with when I was at the paper.
It was so fun and everybody was interested in it,

(12:09):
and it just made it all the more easy to
learn because I was learning from I don't know, eight
or ten a dozen of the best fishermen in the
whole bay system.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
And I treated it that way too.

Speaker 4 (12:22):
I kept kept a notepad with me in my camera bag,
and I would stop and take notes, or as soon
as I.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
Got back in my car, if I got it, when
I got.

Speaker 4 (12:29):
Out of their boats, I'd scribble out four or five
six pages of notes, stuff that mattered to me as
a fisherman. And it's helped me even to this day. Okay,
I gotta be quiet. I got to tell you about
your rockets and astros.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
Live here we are Sports Talk seven ninety. The conversation continues,
this as the Doug Pike Show.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
Is that the rifleman I heard just then I was
yapping to you. I'm sorry, Yeah it was, wasn't it
Lucas McCain. He was a pretty tough ombra, wasn't he?
Holy cow man, that was fun doing that yesterday. This
is We're off to a good start with that one too.
You got them all lined out, or you're just gonna
just grab them at random? No, no, no, don't change the thing, man.

(13:16):
I just want to see what you found se one
three two one two five seven ninety. Email on me
Dougpike at iHeartMedia dot com. Let me pull this picture down.
I'm gonna have to. I'm gonna have to fall back
on my other glasses stand by one second, my backup glasses.

Speaker 2 (13:32):
I've already got.

Speaker 4 (13:33):
I've got one pair in my car, Melvin, one pair
of readers in my car that are missing. Uh it's
a little arm, a little earpiece whatever they call that
thing that goes down the side of your head. Because
the screw fell out, and I don't know I have
the piece, but I don't have the screw. And I

(13:53):
like those glasses enough that I might try to just
kind of put a little piece of fine, why are
in there and and tighten it down somehow, just to
use the glasses still.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
And now, just ten minutes ago, just as I went
to the.

Speaker 4 (14:08):
Break, the screw fell out of the left side of
this pair, And so now I'm got my backups to
my backups on. It may all work, it doesn't matter. Really,
it's not that big a deal except when you need them.
And then and I think I could get through a
show without wearing glasses, but I don't want to find

(14:30):
out if I have to. You know, if I don't
have to, I'm not going to go for it, because
if I can't read, that's pretty tough. Seven one three
two one two five seven nine am. I'm looking for
I've got to return an email here. It's very important
and I'm missing it. There it is right there. Hold on,
stand by one second. This is important and I'll do that.

Speaker 2 (14:53):
And by the way, I don't mind at all.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
We could if you want to go back into some
the stuff we were talking about yesterday.

Speaker 2 (15:02):
And first of all, if you were listening yesterday and.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
You you're one of the people who who sent me
an email about possibly sponsoring the This Week in US
Military History piece that I do, I forgive me, please,
but I had to. I had to make an emergency
bail out here yesterday to go to a veterinarian appointment

(15:25):
that was very important to my family and me, and
we got in because somebody canceled. And just as I
was about to get into all that, that's when the
phone rang and I heard from them that they had
somebody who had canceled, and I needed a high tail
and home and race to the veterinarian's That's enough of that,

(15:46):
uh seven one three two one two five seven ninety.
We talked a lot yesterday about gosh, a whole lot
of different things.

Speaker 2 (15:52):
I can't imagine that we missed a lot, But.

Speaker 4 (15:56):
We are coming up on the opening of deer season,
and I would be interested to hear because we didn't
cover this yesterday. What you've seen on your place where
you hunt deer. That's under presumption that you've been out
filling feeders and mending fences and doing whatever it is
you have to do on your place to get it right.

(16:16):
Running the raccoons out of the camp house. Whatever it is.
Rick Bikes kind of surprised me yesterday when we were
talking about most unusual things people had caught it? What
was it he had in the camp house bathroom? Was
it a raccoon or it was something like that. Yeah,
I believe it was a raccoon. It may have been. Yeah,

(16:37):
whatever it was, it didn't belong there. That's for sure.
Most unusual catches and the question originally came through in
an email form the most unusually unusual thing.

Speaker 2 (16:50):
You've either caught or or shot on.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
A hunting trip, and hopefully you haven't shot too many
unusual things except maybe snakes himself to That's something else
we covered yesterday was shot size.

Speaker 2 (17:04):
I can't recall who it was who asked about it.

Speaker 4 (17:06):
Shot size in a four to ten for just taking
care of taking care of venomous snakes. Please don't be
shooting non venomous snakes, and please take the time to
learn the difference. If you're unsure and you just back
away from the snake, if you have the opportunity, if
you're unsure whether it's venomous or not, just back away

(17:28):
from it and let it go. It really doesn't want
to bite you. It really doesn't want to engage with
you at all. It would just ninety nine point nine
percent of snakes would just as soon leave and go away.
If you'll back up, they'll back up. You'll never see
that same snake again. Probably red on black, friend of jack,

(17:51):
red on yellow, kill a fellow. That's what's going on.
So if you're in, it's a pretty simple and there's
snakes that look. The reason that little little sing song
thing came along is because a milk snake, for example,
is red on black, and it goes red black yellow,

(18:14):
red black yellow, And so that snake is not gonna
hurt you. The one that's red on yellow kill a fellow.
Pretty sure that's how it goes. I hope I look
it up. For heaven's sake. Just look at the snakes. Boy,
if I'm wrong on that, that could be terrible. Don't
trust me, go trust but confirm. My wife starts saying

(18:37):
that a lot when I'll tell her stuff and she'll
she'll turn and she'll just pick up her iPad or
pick up her phone and start looking it up. And
I said, well, I just told you this is what's
going on. I just trust but confirm. You know, she
didn't trust me anymore on some of these things about
the outdoors and about whatever. But it'll work out. I
know it will. Here's another email I need to.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Go check here.

Speaker 4 (19:01):
Overall pretty good I'm looking at overall pretty good on
the deer lease here.

Speaker 2 (19:07):
This one's in East Texas.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
Not giant Bucks, but enough bucks to go around for
the people he's gonna hunt with.

Speaker 2 (19:14):
And overall pretty good food supply.

Speaker 4 (19:17):
The guy's got his own food plots up, he says,
So it doesn't really matter that much. But that's what's up.
Oh here's David wayn In. I think I'm gonna see
a picture. Oh my, Oh yeah, East Texas Buck. The
subject line says, hope he shows up. Yeah I would too.
Oh that's a really nice one there. It's just a

(19:37):
nice big clean eight. I'm guessing we could only see
the left antler and the brow tye and mainbeam out
of ways on the right antler. But if the left
looks like the right, that's gonna be a significant eight
point buck, a very significant eight point buck.

Speaker 3 (19:55):
Good.

Speaker 2 (19:56):
Good for you, man, that's on your lease. Not bad
at all.

Speaker 4 (20:00):
Been sitting on that picture, hadn't you just you just
pull it out and look at it on your phone
every few minutes, just a just a dream about what
may or may not happen this year on your on
your deer leash.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
That's part of that's Cameras.

Speaker 4 (20:17):
Are cameras the deer hunting equivalent of live scope. Now,
they don't they don't show you when you're in the
stand what's there, because then you could see it yourself.
But they show you what's hanging around that stand and
might encourage you to hunt or not to hunt a
certain stand.

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Does that take some of the mystique out of it
for you? Does that? Does that make.

Speaker 4 (20:44):
You not want to hunt a blind if you looked
at pictures for the last week and there hadn't been
a deer around it. I'm just kind of the opposite.
I want to I want to go against the grain.
I want to go to the place that nobody else
wants to go, and I'm going to see if I
can something in there that nobody else saw.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
I just that's just the way I am.

Speaker 4 (21:05):
And maybe there are well, there always are stands on
big properties, and even on smaller ones, where there tend
to be more dear than on other areas of the ranch.
And even if the feeders go off at the same
time and throw the same amount of corn, even if

(21:25):
there's the same amount of minerals available, the same amount
of natural food available, just some parts of the ranch
are gonna be more productive than others. But I'll go
to that oddball spot on the outside chance that a
big buck has patterned the people on that place and

(21:45):
knows nobody ever goes there. And don't think they can't
figure that out. Deer are a little bit smarter, I
think than we give them credit for, and they do
pattern people. There was I've seen numerous times when deer
will they'll know they know where the stand is, and
they're they keep looking at the stand, even if it's

(22:06):
not even if it's not down wind to where they are,
even if it's just or upwind of where they are,
and they know that people have been in there, they've
seen their buddies drop like a stone after the big
noise goes off, and they they steer away.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
From those places. So I don't know where are you
on that? What do you think? Where do you want
to be?

Speaker 4 (22:32):
Do you want to be at the place where you've
seen the most deer or the place where the guy
who manages the rant says, you know, a couple of days,
a couple about a week and a half ago, I
saw a really big buck over there, But that's the
only deer I've seen there in two weeks. I'll go there,
would you some one? Three, two one two five? Seven
ninety Let's go to.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
Our sports stock seven nineties Houston, the sports where you
go with iHeartRadio Now get more Doug.

Speaker 4 (23:03):
Shown that was so cool? Who are the Twilight Zone?
Let's scare the pants off of you. And looking back,
as with anything having to do with entertainment and whatnot,
you look back at the special effects from those days
and they're just they're just so elementary and so simple,

(23:24):
and now with the technology we have, even even little
kids can come up with some pretty scary stuff. If
they want to and if they learn how to program
and whatnot. Let's get to Rick by see what's on
his mind. Well, do you feel like you're in the
twilight Zone when you're chasing those crows sometimes?

Speaker 3 (23:42):
Rick? No, Uh, I'm in h I'm in I'm in
my element and then and I'm zoned in.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Yeah, that's a good. But what's up?

Speaker 3 (23:54):
I was just gonna tell you this morning. Last night
I made a plan and got up here to my shop.
I limped over and got on the fourth weaver. I
didn't have well, I had a twenty two eighth shot
double action revolver, but I didn't have no rifle or anything.
But I did borrow a thermal scope.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
Oh well, okay Mann fifty.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Seven degrees cool Chris, which helps that scope. And I
have a pond down here. It's about two years old.
It holds water real well and as dry as it is.
I thought, I'm gonna go out here. I'm on in
two hours. I'm gonna leave about seven twenty. Yeah, And
so I got there about four fifty. And I didn't

(24:47):
get off the fourth weaver. I just was looking and
I saw a lot of stuff. I'm gonna go into it.
But I did see something. Maybe somebody listening, one of
your listeners, or you can explain to me. Okay, let
me back up one gear. I saw a lot. You'd
be surprised what goes on in the dark. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah,

(25:11):
But anyway, I saw a possum. Or some people are
gonna say it's an opossum, but I call them possums.
You know what I'm talking about.

Speaker 2 (25:21):
I know it's the same animal. Oh or no, Oh,
it's okay.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
She had three or four babies on her back, which
possums scary babies on her back. Yea, But here's my question.
Here's my question. What is she doing carrying babies on
her back this time of year?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Uh, that's a good Uh, that's a good question.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
Maybe they're I have you know, I have no answer
for that. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (25:46):
The simple answer is that they don't really you know,
they're not fished. They don't have to spawn in the
spring and whatever. So that's the simple answer. They may
reproduce year round possibility.

Speaker 3 (26:00):
Oh you well know, I'm not a I don't I'm
not a Google guys. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (26:06):
But yeah, rodents do that. They just they just anytime, anytime.
The mood strikes them. Didn't make some more babies, you know.

Speaker 3 (26:14):
Yeah, anyways, Uh, anybody's listening might have an answer why
there was a late Well, I possibly be carrying babies
or mic in October. I'd like to hear it.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
Maybe maybe she's just trying to make ends meet and
running an uber service for a bunch of rats.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
No I could see the babies.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
Oh okay, all.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
Right, I mean she wasn't. She wasn't twenty five feeple,
I mean I wow, okay, yeah, are there?

Speaker 5 (26:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (26:45):
No, I had a big it's it's a it's a
scope that reached out there four hundred yards.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Wow. Yeah, that's that's any question. Yeah, I don't know
the answer to that, Rick, I don't.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Well, I don't know. It's not a it's not a
fun question, but it just kind of puzzles me.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Well, that's what see. You get stuff like that when
you're out there in the dark. You saw it.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
Everybody else who's just curled up with their head on
the pillow at the time, they don't get to see
stuff like that. And that's I'm I'm glad you were
out there to see that. Now we got something else
to talk about. That is something different than unusual.

Speaker 3 (27:18):
I had seven fur bearing animals come to that little
bit pond.

Speaker 2 (27:27):
I'll be bad.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
I'm not kidding you that I see one occasionally, but
the other ones I didn't even know it was in
this part of the country. I mean I knew they
were in this part of the country, I never saw. Yeah,
they're nocturnal. Everything's nocturnal. What I'm talking you know.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
The smart animals are nocturnal, that's for sure.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
Well, just to just to finish up real quick, I
do agree with you that, dear pat they can just
like you try to pattern them. They can pa you.

Speaker 4 (28:00):
Till no doubt, will no doubt, man, no doubt see
man audios. Yeah, patterning deer and boy, I saw this
happen so many times. It's one of the little tricks
that I used to get probably half a dozen bucks
that that I wouldn't have gotten if I'd done things

(28:22):
just by the book. A lot of ranches where there's
a lot of hunters going out and they're being dropped
off from pickup trucks and like one, two, three, four
guys maybe in the same truck, all going out to
hunt in the morning. A lot of these ranches that
just drive you right up to the stand and they'll
you get out and you you say goadbye, and you

(28:45):
close the door. Not super you don't slam the door,
but you close the door. And the truck's running anyway,
and it might be a little loud, and it's been
rolling slow down those rocky roads, and we're just basically
got the headlights on. That's even where Bill Carter on
the som Burrito when I was hunting down there. Anyway,
when you left camp in one of those ranch vehicles,

(29:07):
you didn't turn on the lights. The headlights on those
vehicles were only for use in emergencies. They didn't want
any lights disturbing those animals in the night time, and
break lights were covered. The headlights didn't come on, and
you just drove. You just sat there in the vehicle
until you could see a little bit. And you can

(29:28):
make out the difference between a dirt road and prickly
pair on the side of the road. It's not hard
or knee high grass. Pretty easy to find the road
once you just let your eyes adjust to the dark.
The long and the short of it is, what I
would do is I'd say what time do y'all? Usually
come by and pick back up for the after the

(29:49):
morning hunt, oh about nine nine thirty.

Speaker 2 (29:52):
So we'll tell you what.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
When you come by here, I'm gonna take enough stuff
with me to stay a couple of extra hours, and
then I'll walk back to camp. I don't have a
problem with that. But when you come by this stand,
what I want you to do is pull up to
the stand, the same place you always pull up to
pick up your hunter.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
I want you to get out. I want you to
open the back door of the truck.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
I want you to close the back door of the truck,
and I want you to get back in the front
door of the truck, close that door, and drive off.
Same routine that these deer here every day, same routine,
and more than once. I couldn't tell you how many
times it worked, but more than once, I can assure
you more than once. I'd sit there and within twenty minutes,

(30:37):
here'd come a deer, here'd come another deer.

Speaker 2 (30:41):
And look back a little deeper into the woods, there's
a nice buck standing. There.

Speaker 4 (30:45):
May not have been a shooter, and but I've got
pretty high standards. I don't want to I'm not just
going to kill the deer to kill deer. I'm looking
for some very specific things and if they're on the
menu for me, and if I see what I'm looking for,
I'll shoot one. But until then, no, I'm just gonna
gonna let it go, all right, I gotta take a

(31:05):
little break.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
I'm I'm I'm lost in the deer in the deer
stand here for the moment.

Speaker 4 (31:11):
But yeah, I'd stay out there another couple of hours
and just crawl down and walk on out of there quiet.
There's another way that you can help yourself in that
regard to h if you, if you, but you have
to coordinate it before you go into the stand. I'll
talk about that when we get back.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
This is Sports Talk seven ninety on the Go with
iHeartRadio Friends. You've got to try the conversation continues this
as the dog Pipe Show.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
The months. That's right right. Nod your head because I
know you're talking. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:44):
Well some I think they were the ones who had
the hot niece or something like that, who just looked
as normal as the day is long, and they felt
so sorry for because they considered her the odd ball
of the group. Seven one, three, two on two five
seven ninety Email me dougpick at iHeartMedia dot com before
I get to the phones, Billy wade in and laid

(32:07):
it out there, said a possum also called an opossum,
would be carrying babies on her back in October because
they're likely nearing the age when they've just grown too
large to fit in her pouch, so they climb onto
her back to be carried around while she searches for food,
marking a crucial stage in their development where they learn

(32:28):
survival skills like finding food and avoiding predators. Usually happens
about two and a half months after birth. Guess what
people do the same thing. You're driving the kids around
the back and forth to school, and about the time
they get big enough to be a pain in the
behind in the car, you throw them in the back

(32:49):
of the pickup truck. We used to do anyway, we
used to do that.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
That's exactly what That's what she's done there.

Speaker 4 (32:57):
They're too big to be in the car, as you
put him in the behind her in the in the
bed of the pickup. Makes perfect sense to me. Let's
go talk to Brandon, shall we? Hey Brandon, what's up man?

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Morning?

Speaker 3 (33:11):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (33:12):
I'm good? How are you.

Speaker 1 (33:14):
I'm doing okay, I'm right.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
For the Texans King, I am too, I am too.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
Hey, did did you watch college football yesterday?

Speaker 2 (33:23):
How did the Texas game end up?

Speaker 4 (33:26):
Okay? Well, not good for the for the Longhorns. Huh
that was man?

Speaker 2 (33:31):
That was a that was what's that?

Speaker 1 (33:35):
It was seven ninety Well, I.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
Know, but I was. I was swamped.

Speaker 4 (33:39):
I watched up until close to the end, but then
I just I had to check out and go to bed.
I couldn't take them all the way to the end
of it. And there were just so many odd ball,
weird plays in that game.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Huh. Yeah, are you going to the audio?

Speaker 4 (33:54):
Sure, I'll probably end up at the rodeo at least once,
just to say I did.

Speaker 2 (34:01):
Oh yeah, probably. How how many times do you go?

Speaker 3 (34:04):
We we're going too at the main club? Oh?

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Perfect?

Speaker 3 (34:08):
Good?

Speaker 2 (34:08):
What what do you do for him?

Speaker 4 (34:11):
We did?

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Stocked some shelves, yeah, on being they're ready for.

Speaker 4 (34:20):
Yeah, that's important if the if the shelves aren't stuck,
nobody gets what they need, right. The good stuff starts
with you, that's for sure. Any out doors any outdoors
plans this week?

Speaker 6 (34:35):
I say, Max came Friday.

Speaker 4 (34:41):
He's gonna teach me how to fish.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Oh, wonderful, wonderful. That's good. Yeah, because that's something you
can do for the rest of your life, man, and
have fun doing it every time you go, even if
you don't catch a fish. Going fish, it's fun.

Speaker 3 (34:55):
Yeah, I might do it here.

Speaker 2 (34:59):
When he you know, he comes good.

Speaker 4 (35:02):
Well, when you do catch that first fish, I want
to see pictures.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Okay, Hey, Joemy, I'm sending to the sports start seven
ninety page.

Speaker 4 (35:12):
Uh, you could do that. Yeah, that's fine. Do that,
and just make sure you let me know as well, though.
Send me an email so I can go find him.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
What's your email address?

Speaker 4 (35:22):
It's very simple. Doug Pike at iHeartMedia dot com.

Speaker 2 (35:29):
Okay, what'd you do this weekend?

Speaker 7 (35:31):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (35:32):
I've been doing a lot of stuff this weekend, none
of it really fun. I had some other It's some
kind of unfun stuff I had to deal with. But
it's all behind me now. It'll be okay.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
I'm you know.

Speaker 2 (35:44):
They won a game yesterday.

Speaker 4 (35:45):
He closed out the game, he finished pitching for him
and shut the other guys down without allowing a run.

Speaker 2 (35:52):
So that was good there. What's that?

Speaker 1 (35:56):
What's the final?

Speaker 7 (35:58):
Uh?

Speaker 2 (35:58):
Six ' four?

Speaker 4 (35:59):
I think in that game, and then they're playing again
this morning. They got two games today, and I think
they're at two different fields too, which is I don't
really like it when they have to do that, because
there's a lot of driving involved in these two games,
and I'm.

Speaker 2 (36:14):
Gonna do they trot? Well, I don't know.

Speaker 4 (36:16):
I have an obligation this afternoon that I want to
make and I need to make, and I'm going to
make so he may have to he may have to
run this one by himself.

Speaker 2 (36:25):
Unfortunately.

Speaker 3 (36:27):
Well I gotta run, buddy, your son, I said, I.

Speaker 2 (36:32):
Will, absolutely, I'll do that, Brendan, I promise you I will.
All right, buddy, you too. Audios man, I want to
I want to see fish pictures from him.

Speaker 4 (36:42):
I want him to catch fish. Okay, we got how
we got? I think it was a Keith's granddaughter. We
were talking about.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
I got the wrong mouse in my hand.

Speaker 4 (36:53):
I wanted the thing would move, move that, and I
think it was I believe it was from yesterday. The
fish that was caught yesterday was oh, Jeff, I'm sorry,
Jeff's granddaughter four years old.

Speaker 2 (37:04):
She got her first fish. She got six of them.
So when you're.

Speaker 4 (37:08):
Ready to go, if you need a place to go, Brandon,
if you're still listening, email me Dougpike at iHeartMedia dot
com and be sure.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
I'll give you the where.

Speaker 4 (37:20):
I think you guys could catch a ton of fish
and not just one, and I'll.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
Set you up for success, man, I really will.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
All you got to do is get somebody to take
you there and get.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
The bait on the hooks and hang on tight.

Speaker 3 (37:34):
All right.

Speaker 4 (37:34):
We got to take a little break here, going out
to the top of the hour. By the way, when
we come back, I'm going to talk to Lorie Thurman
about Hunters for the Hungary. It's a very important program
that distributes tons literally of venison to needy families all
over this state.

Speaker 2 (37:51):
And we'll talk about that when we get back.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
This is the Dougpike Show, brought to you by American
Shooting Centers Guns Shooting an instruction since nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Now here's Doug Pike.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
All right, we go, second hour. The program starts right now.
Thanks for listening. I promise you, I promised you something
about Hunters for the Hungry, and I'm going to deliver
on that promise.

Speaker 2 (38:17):
We're going to talk about it.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
I've been talking about it for pretty much as long
as it's been around, either talking or writing about it,
and I've always enjoyed doing this pretty much.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
It's pretty much once a year.

Speaker 4 (38:29):
Unfortunately, maybe we'll maybe we'll talk about doing it a
little more often and rotate in the Houston Food Bank
more heavily. Anyway, the bottom line is what I'm gonna
do is welcome in now, Lori Thurman to the show,
And good morning, Laurie.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
How are you? Oh?

Speaker 4 (38:46):
I gotta go pop? Oh you know what, there we go.
It's my fault, Laurie. I didn't have you queued up yet.

Speaker 8 (38:53):
Yeah. Problem.

Speaker 3 (38:56):
You know.

Speaker 2 (38:56):
I'm doing just fine.

Speaker 4 (38:57):
During the week when I have interviews, my producer patches
people in, and on the weekends I patch people.

Speaker 2 (39:04):
In and a I don't know what, I don't know
what day. It is, all right, So here we go.

Speaker 4 (39:09):
So if you would, let's just kind of start at
the beginning. How exactly does hunters for the hungry work?

Speaker 8 (39:15):
There hundreds for the hungry works by landowners or hunters
that have killed a deer and they want to donate
the meat. They don't maybe not necessarily need it themselves.
They have a full freezer, so they can donate a
tag deer to one of our processors that have signed
up with us to the Houston Food Bank, and what
they do is they just bring their tag deer to
that processor and they process it into ground meat to

(39:38):
pound chub and the processor actually can get reimbursed for
that through beating Texas through.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
The two things.

Speaker 4 (39:44):
Well, that's good, and the most important thing is that
it does have to be a legally tagged deer. You
can't just go mow down four or five dos off
your place and drop them off exactly.

Speaker 8 (39:56):
They have to be tagged. That's why we're really kind
of put the flee out to landowners out there at
the time of the season where they're having a lot
of coal deer on their land and they're you know,
looking at ten to fifteen twenty deer, but they really
don't know what to do with them. We are definitely
the place for that. The processors already and prepared, and
we actually just got a Feeding America kind of a
start sitting text as mini grants to help with hunters

(40:18):
and landowners. Was kind of transporting those neats to the
processor cause that was kind of a challenge last year.

Speaker 2 (40:24):
Well, yeah, that's that's great that there's a way to
do that.

Speaker 4 (40:27):
And on places where a lot of deer being taken
out with the like the managed land Deer permits and
stuff like that, and.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
That's a different tagging system.

Speaker 4 (40:36):
Anybody who wants to learn and find out about this
can certainly do so on their own.

Speaker 2 (40:41):
I don't want to get get into the minutia of it.
So and two.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
Yeah, and to clarify another really important point, these deer
that are going to be brought to those processors have
to be field dressed too, right, some.

Speaker 8 (40:55):
Of the processors, but some of the participating process will
take them just as long as they're oh well mate,
say like that, but gutted. They don't necessarily have to
be feel dressed. You can just go on our website
and look to the hunters for Hungary and it will
tell you that we have right now only three participating processors.

Speaker 3 (41:12):
Okay, know that thing.

Speaker 8 (41:13):
We're definitely looking for processors that want to participate, but
it's definitely up to the processor.

Speaker 4 (41:18):
You drop it off to fingers crossed. Okay, they should
all be helping you if they could. I don't know
how all that works out. Who do you have so far?

Speaker 8 (41:27):
I have a Midway and Bay area of Pasadena, Katie.
And then I have Chapel Hill Sausage out in Chapel Hill.

Speaker 4 (41:35):
Beautiful Chapel Hill. That Rick Bise's ears just perked up.
One of the guys who listens pretty regularly half the
time I hear from him.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
He's around Chapel Hill somewhere.

Speaker 4 (41:44):
And so the processors put these this meat like you
were talking about, and they put it in two pound bags.
Then it goes to the Food Bank Houston Food Bag
where it gets dealt out to whom.

Speaker 8 (41:55):
Well, actually, what we do is we partner the processor
when they decide to partner with the food bank, we
partner them up or pare them up with one of
our partner agencies in the community close to them. So
the deer that go to that process or that processor,
then that pantry organization comes straight there to pick it
up and takes it right back to their pain try
to hand out to people in the community.

Speaker 4 (42:15):
I wouldn't mind, boy, yeah, I wouldn't mind having a
little venison laying around. That sounds good. It's such good
nutritious meat too, It really is. Really do appreciate that,
don't they?

Speaker 2 (42:28):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (42:28):
They definitely do, because protein is one of the hardest
things that I do source throughout the year. So I
really do try to push the Hunter for Hungry program
because it's a very good source of lean protein for
people who may be on some kind of special diet.
It's really good for them.

Speaker 4 (42:42):
Lori Thurman on the Doug Pike Show with me. So
give me some numbers, Lourie, what's some stats. How many
pounds of meat last year?

Speaker 8 (42:51):
Last year? I hate to report that we did not
have any. We only had two deer donated last year
and they were I'm not and were not transported correctly,
you know, not kept cold, so the processor had to
throw the meat out. Okay, So really really really trying
to do a plea to push for this year.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
Yeah, we're going to fix that this year.

Speaker 4 (43:12):
Instead of just talking to you today about it, I'm
going to kind of bring this up all week long.
I might even try to squeeze this interview into fifty
plus because I know I have a lot of deer
hunters in there as well, and feel free you guys
just keep reminding me about this all the way through
deer season, and I will shame these people into bringing
some meat to someplace that'll get it to you.

Speaker 2 (43:32):
Guys. Holy kep.

Speaker 8 (43:34):
That sounds great.

Speaker 4 (43:35):
Okay, So let's let's look historically at the program and
how many servings of meat it's it's provided over the years,
over many, many years of doing this and this is.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
My second year. So okay, well, I help you. I
can help you. I can help you because I looked
that up.

Speaker 4 (43:53):
Ten million servings, ten million servings about that.

Speaker 8 (44:01):
That's amazing.

Speaker 4 (44:02):
Yeah, I found that in what Paul sent me is
just great. So what about the Houston Food Bank itself?

Speaker 2 (44:06):
How does it work?

Speaker 8 (44:10):
Well, we have eighteen counties that we do cover, and
what we do is we source all kinds of food
and donations from any and every avenue that we can,
and we partner with over eighteen hundred pantries out in
those eighteen counties, and we distribute the food to those
pantries and then they distribute it out to the community.

Speaker 4 (44:28):
And that I was going to guess that do you
have any it's been a while since you turned down
a donation or a volunteer. What kind of food are
you looking for to be donated right now?

Speaker 8 (44:39):
We're really pushing for holiday foods so that we can
have for the holiday bosses so people can enjoy a
traditional Thanksgiving or Christmas meal. But anytime we're pushing for
the healthy foods, we do definitely push hard on produce,
lean proteins and things like that, so mainly perishables, but
we don't turn down the donations. Yeah, No, it's something
that's edible that can feed a family, we will definitely.

Speaker 4 (45:00):
Take it, but steer clear of the ding dongs and
ho hos, Right.

Speaker 8 (45:05):
We definitely do try to do that.

Speaker 2 (45:08):
Yeah, if somebody's going to to donate something.

Speaker 4 (45:11):
At least think about what these families really need.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
If they're not getting much food at all.

Speaker 4 (45:19):
They need high protein stuff, they need vegetables, they need
things that can really help them other than just junk food.

Speaker 8 (45:27):
Definitely, and back to the basics of like rice and
grain and things like that so that they can stretch
a mill. You know, it's amazing what you can do
with a few things when you can be creative to
stretch them into a.

Speaker 4 (45:38):
Couple of different meal get a belly filled up instead
of just half filled.

Speaker 2 (45:41):
That makes really good sense. Been around since nineteen eighty two,
is that right?

Speaker 8 (45:47):
Yes, sir, I found.

Speaker 4 (45:48):
Another staff that I really like LORI, and I'll go
ahead and throw it out there, Okay, the number of
the number of meals provided. And I read this twice
to make sure the eighteen counties you serve six teen
hundred community partners, you got food pantries, soup kitchen, schools,
social service providers, all of them one hundred and twenty

(46:08):
million meals.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
About that that's a big number, old.

Speaker 8 (46:14):
And that amazing.

Speaker 2 (46:15):
Oh it is, you know, it really is. And that's why.

Speaker 4 (46:18):
And I'm so disappointed that you've got no deer last year.
I know some guys who have MLD permits who need
to get deer off their places. And I'm going to volunteer.
I got a box of bullets at the house. I'm
going to volunteer.

Speaker 6 (46:31):
Now.

Speaker 4 (46:31):
I'm going to go to a couple of these places
and see if we can't get you some deer.

Speaker 2 (46:35):
That would be great mercy.

Speaker 8 (46:37):
Saxe appreciated.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Where can people find out more about this? If they
want to go look on their own.

Speaker 8 (46:43):
It can go to the Houston Food Bank website and
just it's as ways to give and it's one of
the things that drop down and say food to get
food and hunters for hungry will pop up, or you
can just hype it in the search bar and it'll
give you all the information. Also, if you go to
Hunters for Hunter, you can email Hunters for Hungry at
Houston Food or and that would go straight to me

(47:03):
and I can.

Speaker 2 (47:03):
Get you any information you got Instagram, you got Twitter
all that. Who's not on Instagram and Twitter?

Speaker 3 (47:08):
Right?

Speaker 8 (47:10):
Definitely yes, And we're actually got some some advertising one
on on Instagram and Facebook right now.

Speaker 2 (47:16):
Wonderful.

Speaker 4 (47:18):
Well you should have talked to me. I could have
helped you out with some advertising over here too.

Speaker 3 (47:22):
Oh well, great, good heaven.

Speaker 8 (47:24):
I will get you on that.

Speaker 2 (47:25):
Please do.

Speaker 4 (47:26):
Yeah, I'll be happy. I'll do as much as I
can with whatever you got. I guarantee you, all right,
Laurie Thurman, thank you so very much, Hunters for the Hungry.
It's very It's not hard to find if if you
can type those words and not misspell more than one
of them, you'll probably get there.

Speaker 3 (47:42):
Thank you, Lourie, thank you.

Speaker 4 (47:44):
Uh huh, Bobby, all right man, Holy cow, that's so good.
I'm so disappointed. Are you kidding me too?

Speaker 3 (47:52):
Dear?

Speaker 4 (47:53):
And they weren't processed right or they weren't feel dressed
right that's that's an Honestly, my gut says that whoever
brought those two deer in probably knew they weren't really
done right, so they were just trying to find something
to do with it.

Speaker 2 (48:09):
Oh man, Okay, I'm sending it out.

Speaker 4 (48:13):
This is even more important, I think, because it involves
people getting enough food to eat. This is more important
than getting a little kid is for his or her
first fish. Okay, somebody out there, and I can think
of about a half a dozen guys off the top
of my head who have ranches on which quite a
few deer are gonna have to come out this year

(48:33):
and make me a promise that at least some of
those deer will find their way to one of these
processors who's participating in this program.

Speaker 2 (48:44):
Please. Yeah, these people need food, they really do.

Speaker 4 (48:48):
And that's something that's becoming more and more a lot
of us are becoming more and more aware as the
price of a loaf of bread goes to one hundred dollars.

Speaker 2 (48:57):
This is just it's out of control.

Speaker 4 (49:00):
And the people who need these the people who need
this desperately, truly do need it.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
This is not something that oh it might help, might not.
We still eat.

Speaker 4 (49:09):
Now a lot of these people may be skipping meals.
There's no excuse for that in this country, there's really not.
It irks me that our the last few years have
brought us to where we are where people can't eat,
Americans can't eat.

Speaker 2 (49:22):
That's messed up.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
This is Sports Talk seven ninety online at Sports seven

Speaker 2 (49:30):
Now the more Doug fight. Raise your hand. If you
didn't watch Hawaii five zero on TV.

Speaker 4 (49:37):
When we were young, I doubt many hands are in
the air right now and there. If there's one hand
in the air, it's probably from somebody who didn't have
a TV because that was one of the coolest shows
because it gave you a look at Hawaii and for
me as a as a surfer and a fisherman, I

(49:58):
just I could just watch without even listening. Probably I
didn't in hindsight, I probably didn't care that much about
the storylines in these things. They were well written, they
were good, and the cast was good. But I always
was looking over their shoulders at the at the break,
coming around the point, or maybe they were at the

(50:20):
dock and I was checking out the boats with all
the big rods and reels on them all these fancy,
beautiful boats down there.

Speaker 2 (50:26):
I fished out of Hawaii a couple of times.

Speaker 3 (50:28):
Now.

Speaker 2 (50:28):
It's a lot of fun. It's a lot of fun.

Speaker 4 (50:31):
One trip I made down there many years ago, went
down there to do a story for the paper. And
a friend of mine who lives here, a guy named
Jeff Dickey, actually owned a boat down there then and
I think still does now, and he volunteered the boat
and the captain and the mate for that trip. And
so I went down there, jumped on the boat early

(50:53):
in the morning, totally jet lagged. We had my wife
and I both went on that trip, and we hadn't
been in town on twelve hours yet, and totally out
of our element sleep wise, and everything was and off
we went in about thirty minutes after linees in, get

(51:14):
a big bike, catch a blue marlin about three twenty
I don't know, somewhere between two eighty and three fifty.
I can't remember exactly what that fish was. But the
bottom line was, and this was pretty early in the morning, still,
the bottom line was, I looked at my wife, I
looked at the kind of analyzed how I felt. I

(51:34):
looked at the boys up there and the guy in
the down there in the pit with me and the
guy up there steering a boat, and I said, let's
go home.

Speaker 2 (51:43):
We got everything we need.

Speaker 4 (51:45):
My wife had taken some pictures and so we and
we were just exhausted, We really were. It'd been a
long flight. I don't remember what the issue was, but
it just been hard to get where we got in
that day. And I didn't mind. They didn't mind. Having
half a day off makes it easier on them, a
little less cleaning to do, a little less fuel to

(52:08):
replace and all of that. And we got the pictures
we needed, We got everything we needed, and we all
shook hands. I tipped them handsomely and went back to
the hotel and napped for about three hours. Man, and
I was just exhausted. Seven one three two one two
five seven ninety. Email me Dougpike at iHeartMedia dot com.

(52:29):
It was a fun trip. I got to go down
there a couple of times on on golf trips as well.
Let's go see what's on Bob's mind here, Bob, what's up,
my friend?

Speaker 6 (52:39):
How you doing, buddy?

Speaker 2 (52:40):
I'm good.

Speaker 6 (52:42):
You know you're talking about Hawaii. I don't know how
long it ago you were there, but a couple of
years ago went out on a party boat. We weren't
allowed to keep the fish. They sold them.

Speaker 4 (52:54):
Oh my word, god, everything you caught, Yes, you were
not allowed to keep it on it.

Speaker 6 (53:00):
Now these are on the commercial fishing boats, you know,
the party boat, right, but you you could not You
could buy them once you got in. They belonged to
the captain and you could buy the fish once you
got in.

Speaker 1 (53:15):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (53:16):
You know, I wonder if there are boats here that
will take recreational fishermen out and catch red snapper under
a rule that allows you and me essentially to become
commercial fishermen for a day or at least at least
roden Real winders, and then when you get back to

(53:36):
the dock, you can buy some of those fish. And
that's they have that same process here. But I hadn't
heard about that on party boats in Hawaii.

Speaker 2 (53:45):
That's that's. Did they tell you that beforehand?

Speaker 4 (53:48):
Or no?

Speaker 2 (53:50):
Yes, okay, I can't.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
Now I'll tell you what. I don't remember that.

Speaker 2 (53:54):
Yeah, yeah, who knows.

Speaker 6 (53:55):
I'm visiting with my second cousin, my cousin daughter, we
were out there and she lined up the party boat,
so they might have told her but we didn't know
until we got back in.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
Oh wow, but that was just a couple of years ago.

Speaker 6 (54:13):
And I don't know if it's changed two years ago
the most.

Speaker 3 (54:18):
But I heard you talking.

Speaker 1 (54:18):
Man.

Speaker 6 (54:19):
It is beautiful guy, And I don't think i'd want
to go just to visit, but for the fishing and golfing.
I wouldn't mind going back.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
Oh yeah, it's.

Speaker 6 (54:29):
Nothing to me. I mean one year we stayed at
a hotel and had to pay twenty five dollars a day.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
To park our car.

Speaker 2 (54:36):
Oh my gosh, it's gotten that bad.

Speaker 6 (54:39):
But anyhow, I just wanted to relate that.

Speaker 2 (54:41):
Yeah, that's very that's different.

Speaker 6 (54:44):
You can clarify that.

Speaker 2 (54:45):
Well, you still haven't told me what you caught.

Speaker 6 (54:49):
You know, I don't know what.

Speaker 3 (54:52):
You know.

Speaker 6 (54:52):
It wasn't sale payers you mind anything.

Speaker 3 (54:55):
It was a local.

Speaker 2 (54:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:57):
I can't, Doug remember what happened.

Speaker 2 (55:02):
Just lucky to remember it was.

Speaker 6 (55:04):
Why, you know, I'm lucky I got up this morning.

Speaker 2 (55:07):
I hear you. Yeah, I'm with you, Bob. Don't worry
about it, man.

Speaker 4 (55:11):
Yeah, they catch a lot of tune off those boats.
I'm sure they catch yeah, okay, yeah, I'd have to
think about it for a minute.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
All right, man, Well, thanks for the call. Yeah, that's interesting.
I'll see a pardon also.

Speaker 4 (55:26):
Oh good, good good, Yeah, same up at Livingston. Too
good for you. All right, Bob, thank you, buddy.

Speaker 2 (55:33):
I do, I do. I'm not gonna tell him, but.

Speaker 4 (55:37):
Okay, holy cow, yeah, I think he was going to
give me permission because it really doesn't matter. Honestly, if
you like to catch white Mash, you know where to
find him this time of year and not that hard.
I think we might have a little croppy bike going
on up at Livingston too. Maybe we'll hear from faux
Pro this morning. We'll see.

Speaker 2 (55:56):
All right, we got it. No, we don't have to
take a break yet, do we Good. Let's talk about
some stuff. Uh where do I want to go?

Speaker 4 (56:03):
I kind of want to lean back into the deer
thing because I promised a minute ago and we got
wrapped up in other stuff that I would tell you
another way that you may be able to find deer
that normally wouldn't be around to stand. And it goes
back to some of these places where they drop you
off out of some old, some old rust bucket of
a pickup truck or whatever. That makes a lot of

(56:24):
noise going down the roads and ranch roads and got
the headlights on and just it's just noise making machines.
And what I took to doing at some of these
places was asking to be shown where I was gonna
hunt the next morning, and give me sometime during the
middle of the day, maybe when all the deer betted down,

(56:45):
drive me out to where I'm gonna hunt tomorrow morning,
and show me where that is, not this afternoon.

Speaker 2 (56:50):
Just show me where I'm gonna hunt tomorrow morning.

Speaker 4 (56:53):
And they would do that, and I'd get out, and
I'd spray my boots down and stuff with scent killer
and my pants even on a little joint like that,
and I would walk myself at least up to where
I could see the stand I was going to hunt
out of, and I knew I'd be walking there in
the pitch dark. But what I wanted to do was
get to a point that was about one hundred yards

(57:16):
from that place, and then I would mark that by
either just dragging a boot toe across the dirt trail
or whatever it was, or maybe using a little tiny
piece of surveyor's ribbon or something like that. And that
told me the next morning what I would do. I
would have them drop me off about two hundred yards

(57:38):
from that stand, and over my shoulder, i'd have my rifle,
I'd have my hunting bag, and then in a hand,
my free hand, I would have ten fifteen pounds of
corn in a bucket. And when I got to that
little place where it was about one hundred yards from
the stand, I'd just start tossing little handfuls of corn

(57:59):
all the way, pretty much all the way to the stand,
and that way I would be going in dead quiet.
Now two hundred yards away. A truck doesn't make a
lot of noise. If they're deer around that stand anywhere,
they're not gonna be so shaken up. They're not going
to be so scared as they would if the truck
had just rumbled up and banged into the leg of

(58:20):
the stand. And so I've gone in there quietly. I
don't use flashlights or anything. I used to use kind
of a red light and just keep it pointed to
the ground to make sure I didn't trip over something.
But usually if there's any star light, any moonlight at all,
you can pretty well acclimate and find your way down
the road. And that also bought me a couple of

(58:43):
extra deer that I probably wouldn't.

Speaker 2 (58:44):
Have gotten otherwise.

Speaker 4 (58:46):
You just sneak in there as quiet as you can.
And those deer are accustomed to hearing those trucks, and
they learned that the trucks mean bad. They learned that
the truck means somebody gonna missbdcheck that night, somebody out
of the herd ain't coming home, and so they stay away.

Speaker 2 (59:07):
The big ones do, the smart ones do. Worked out
pretty well.

Speaker 4 (59:11):
All right, I've got I've got to write an email
here to somebody who thinks I'm mad at him and
he's way wrong.

Speaker 2 (59:16):
I'll explain all that to him in the email. On
the way out, I'll explain to you that if.

Speaker 1 (59:21):
You this is sports Talk seven ninety, Facebook dot com,

Speaker 2 (59:29):
Back to the Doug Bike Show. Alright, welcome back.

Speaker 4 (59:34):
Sitting over here, tapping my toee and I don't know
whether it's I think it's it's kind of cool. Happy
Days was one of those shows that everybody could watch
because somehow, someway everybody could relate to it. Most of
us wished we were the fawnds. Would you agree with that?
Melbourne a.

Speaker 2 (59:55):
Really been Henry Winkler. That character was.

Speaker 4 (59:59):
Just so cool, just so smooth, and the writing from
from I watched a lot of these shows and really
listen to the lines that are written for these characters
and listen to how they're delivered by the actors. And
so I'm a little in the weeds on some of it.

(01:00:20):
But the way his character was presented and the way
he acted it out was just just perfect for that
that guy. You know, and we all had that guy
in our high school class. Did you have somebody like that?
Can you remember who it was?

Speaker 2 (01:00:35):
Not off the tap? Oh?

Speaker 4 (01:00:36):
Yeah, yes, think about it. You get smooth with the
ladies and kind of a tough guy if he had
to be, you know. And yeah, but he had a
little soft side if you knew him, that kind of thing.

Speaker 2 (01:00:48):
Now I know exactly the guy in my high school class.
Who was that guy?

Speaker 6 (01:00:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
Mine was Robert Saint John. Never forget it. He was
cool dude. All right.

Speaker 4 (01:00:59):
I'm not even going to say the name of this
guy because I think it might just go straight to
his head if I did.

Speaker 2 (01:01:05):
Had he had.

Speaker 4 (01:01:05):
A pretty strong opinion of himself. And I'm just gonna
leave it at that and not not go any farther.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
It doesn't matter not.

Speaker 4 (01:01:14):
I'm not even gonna say whether he was or was
not at the fiftieth reunion.

Speaker 2 (01:01:18):
My god, fiftieth reunion.

Speaker 4 (01:01:20):
Man, it was incredible and there were just so many
old people in that room.

Speaker 2 (01:01:25):
I just walked in there and said, where do the
old people come from? Were they doing it? Oh? Wait,
that's my class, that's my people right there.

Speaker 4 (01:01:32):
Man. It was some ah different, it was different, it
really was. And surprisingly so many of those people were
surprisingly recognizable. Fifty years out of high school, went from
eighteen to our late sixties, and we had spent so

(01:01:54):
much time together that oh yeah, I remember you, I
remember you, I remember you. I remember you now. Sometimes
I couldn't remember the name, and that's that's because i'm
the age I am.

Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
But I certainly remembered the faces. And then as soon as.

Speaker 4 (01:02:09):
They told me at all it all came, the whole
floodgate opened up and oh yeah, we did this together,
and we did that. We went fishing over here, we
went played golf over it. Well, I didn't play that
much golf when I was that young.

Speaker 2 (01:02:22):
I really didn't.

Speaker 4 (01:02:22):
I didn't get into golf till I was in college
because they offered it free to the baseball team. And
as you might well imagine, back in the seventies the
nineteen said, not the eighteen seventies, but back in the seventies,
the rental clubs at the Muni course in a small

(01:02:44):
town in the left handed version were well, they left
a lot to be desired.

Speaker 2 (01:02:51):
I'll just put it that way.

Speaker 4 (01:02:53):
Speaking of golf, I haven't said a word about the
tournament ongoing, the Shriners' Children's Open, which is David gim A,
see yeah, gimm and posting both at fifteen. Let me
see if I can get this full leader board to
come up before the end of the show. Good golly,
this thing slow, Good golly. They're out in Las Vegas,

(01:03:13):
and I said yesterday I kind of expected to see
a few bigger names out there. If he were any younger,
I bet you Phil Mickelson would have been out there.
He's no stranger to casinos. The next one he walks
into certainly won't be his first.

Speaker 2 (01:03:27):
Anyway.

Speaker 4 (01:03:28):
Doug Gimm's out there at fifteen under par as is
JT posting, and there's still a little bit of third
round play to be finished up. Today it looks like here. Yeah,
posting's on thirteen. Harris English is on the whole number
fourteen of his third round, So they'll wrap that up
as quickly as they can now that they've got daylight

(01:03:49):
out there, and then they should have ample time to
get through the finish today. So Kitty Yama Woodland English.
Let me see if anybody else is one shot off
the lead at fourteen. Yeah, one more guy, Alejandro tossty
kh Lee jj Spawn. I guess it's the and oh wow,

(01:04:10):
a couple more. A lot of guys at thirteen, so Spawn, Thompson, Jong,
Pendrith and Schmid all at thirteen, and the twelves that
starts at thirteenth position. So they're probably just paying for
playing for bigger checks, unless somebody absolutely lights it up
hot hot as a pistol out front and scares the

(01:04:32):
guys who are gonna walk off the first tee already ahead.
That's how PGA Tour golf is, those guys. Somebody gets
red hot. Let me look and see what the low
round was for yesterday, low round in round two. Oh
it won't, let me do it, No, it won't. I'll
be darned they've changed this. So I can't go see

(01:04:53):
what the low maybe here, No, it just won't let
me go to it. I don't know why. I truly
don't take that down. See if it one time, No,
it won't let me do it. Never mind, Then I'm
not gonna worry about the low round from yesterday or
the day before, and I'll find someplace at some point
where I can see all those and know what it was.

Speaker 2 (01:05:13):
I want to.

Speaker 4 (01:05:14):
Guess it was probably not low sixties, just like it
has been in almost every tournament that's been going on
for the last four or five years. When these guys
started shooting sixteen, then eighteen, then twenty under par for
four rounds and twenty one twenty two. It's amazing how
many birdies these guys are making because it's still you

(01:05:35):
and I can go to any golf course in the
country and stink it up in our usual fashion, and
these guys still with narrower fair ways, higher rough longer yardage,
all of those things wrapped in things that just would
make us cringe and just start playing pickleball, all of
that stuff, and yet they go out and shoot sixty two, three,

(01:06:01):
sixty five, maybe a sixty.

Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
One every now and then.

Speaker 4 (01:06:04):
Who was it a couple of weeks ago, had a shot,
had a shot at a fifty nine and didn't make it, unfortunately,
but he gave it all he had.

Speaker 2 (01:06:13):
All right, let's take this last break in the program
right here. Uh, give it all you have.

Speaker 4 (01:06:17):
That's if I said that, And I'll tell you who else.

Speaker 1 (01:06:21):
This is Sports Talk seven ninety a Houston sports fan
on air and on Facebook.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
That contact back to the Doug Fike Show. So I
feel when I hook a big fish, I was like, oh,
here we go.

Speaker 4 (01:06:36):
Maybe then the chaos starts. Well, that would have been
a rough way to get around, wouldn't it. I think
they had callous feet back then, Melvin, maybe a little bit.
How could you not have callous feet when your your
feet are your propulsion?

Speaker 2 (01:06:51):
Right? Mercy sakes? All right, let's go talk to faux pro.
See what's up, faux pro? What's up?

Speaker 3 (01:06:57):
Man?

Speaker 2 (01:06:58):
Man?

Speaker 5 (01:06:58):
I have to go back to the flint Stone days
with some live school.

Speaker 4 (01:07:04):
Better be careful what you wish for. Man, there'd be
something under that boat that big enough to eat the boat.

Speaker 5 (01:07:10):
Dad. Ain't I be catching NeSSI or something down there?

Speaker 4 (01:07:12):
Get you a megala, don man? Exactly what's on your mind.
Are you just waking up from a crappie file a coma?

Speaker 5 (01:07:21):
Uh No, Actually, I'm actually working on this uh tomaly
coma this morning right as we speak. So all right,
and I'll take him taking a weekend off a little bit.
I gotta get up there and get my bit on
this muddy lake livings. And it's kind of in that
fall turnover something where you and I fish was like
a lot dirty than it was. Okay, So I got
that livings and scumbline on the boat. I gotta get
up there and get off before I go to curse

(01:07:42):
the next Friday. I don't want to contaminate the lake.

Speaker 2 (01:07:44):
Oh my gosh, No, you better scrubb her down. Man.

Speaker 5 (01:07:47):
Oh man, uh you're talking about croppie ear deer, so
crappie right now, Levyson. And one thing for Levs. Anybody
coming up here, the lake's two feet low and falling.
They're looking out two thousand cubic feet per second out
of the lake because of hydro electric crap down there.

Speaker 2 (01:08:00):
But uh so the lakes fault.

Speaker 5 (01:08:02):
I can't even get out of my subdivision right now.

Speaker 2 (01:08:04):
Wow.

Speaker 5 (01:08:04):
And so anything north of one night if you plan
on coming to Livings and you really got to make
a phone call for you come up here south of
one Nighty. You're still okay, White Bash are still they're
still doing good. They're starting to look they look like
they're starting to organize a little bit to run up
the creeks, like you said, up there where you and
I fish's already from showing up up there, But the
lakes keeps falling, they may not be able to get

(01:08:26):
up there. It's party like with me and Lane went
last year and just caught them every cast for an hour.

Speaker 2 (01:08:31):
They'll be bumping overs up there by then.

Speaker 5 (01:08:34):
Huh yeah, they look like Samon. They'd be able to
go there like flounder on their sides, get up there
on the field. But right now, yeah, go ahead.

Speaker 4 (01:08:42):
I was gonna say while I got you on the phone,
I want to know what you use to chase down
bass this time of year. What are you looking for?
What are your keys this time of year for bass?
I'm looking for shad period. Yeah okay, And I'm throwing
like you and I did.

Speaker 5 (01:08:56):
I'm throwing. I'm throwing moving baits. I'll always have a
f up and bug handy. If I see I see
a good piece of thick cover or something like that.
But mostly I'm throwing moving base. I got the troll
motor on about three or four and I'm just going
if we catch one, will slow down to catch more
of it. Maybe a crank, bait, spinner, baked shad, colors,
you know, and backs of creeks, stuff like that, you know,

(01:09:17):
as far back as you can go, you know, especially Olivison,
if you're not digging mud at the troll motor, you're
probably not in the right spot. Wow, you're probably too deep.
I mean, I tell people we're fishing. We gotta you know,
we gotta. It goes from two foot to three foot.
That's a major change. It's not like Rayburn where you
go to fifteen to twenty. Here you go to two
to three foot, and that's that's a big deal. On
this leake falling off a cliff.

Speaker 2 (01:09:38):
Yeah, exactly. Okay, that's that's.

Speaker 4 (01:09:42):
How I like to fish. I'm not a big salt
plastic guy. You kind of figured that out, I'm sure
when I well, yeah, I just can't.

Speaker 2 (01:09:48):
I don't have the patience. I really don't.

Speaker 3 (01:09:51):
Oh.

Speaker 5 (01:09:51):
I mean there's some days when they're on that back
real strong, you know, But but you know, after I
talked to you last week, I went over there was
just one big lady out of one piece of rush.
I'll by itself wasn't nothing for one hundred yards. I
flipped in there, hung something I couldn't get out, and
played with it fifteen minutes. I flipped into a hole
that the bass is too big to come out of. No,
my word, and it was a snake infested looking thing.

(01:10:13):
I wanted about to get up there and stick my
arm under the water, so I said, you know, I
finally broke it off. I was frustrated, but I was
about stick. I was about to file him up under
that brush pile and try to reach it out.

Speaker 4 (01:10:22):
And no, man, I don't blame you. I don't blame
you at all. But there's just no doubt what's crawling
around in there.

Speaker 5 (01:10:28):
Yeah, but I do got a buddy of mine, Old Rayburn, said,
come up there. He's on some he's on something. He
goes come up there and he goes see those. I'll
guarantee you a limit. Plus I need you to show
me a little bit more on this livescope stuff. But
he's up there just learning live scope and he's already
just you know, he goes out there and catch them.
He don't keep him. He'll go out there and catch
what he keeps him. He's not one of these guys
that all catch a limit and give it to my buddy.
Say you want to catch him, you come out here

(01:10:49):
and get them, you know, because I think that's what
a lot of livescope people did in the early days.
They'd got youre and catch a limit. They'd give it
to their buddies. Yeah, God, catch another limit. I said,
you need to let them catch your own fish.

Speaker 2 (01:10:59):
Yeah, that's not right, that's not right. But one golf
question I did have for you.

Speaker 5 (01:11:05):
You know, we was talking about, you know, with swings
and clubs and stuff like that, and as me, you know,
I'm trying to get started in this thing.

Speaker 2 (01:11:12):
Is there a ball that is there a particular ball?
You know, I'm sure there's all kinds of about the
particular ball. You would suggest I start with it? Just
the cheapest ball I can get for what? For golf?

Speaker 3 (01:11:24):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (01:11:24):
For me, yeah, just starting out, Yeah, just the cheapest one.

Speaker 4 (01:11:29):
Because well and once again, if you can't tell me
why you need a different golf ball, you don't need
a different golf ball.

Speaker 2 (01:11:34):
Okay, So the.

Speaker 4 (01:11:35):
Cheapest thing that says golf ball on the box, go
buy them. And if you can find someplace that sells
them used golf balls, just buy some of them and
just don't.

Speaker 2 (01:11:47):
Don't get junky looking stuff.

Speaker 4 (01:11:48):
If it looks like it's beat up and old and
scratched up and dirty and all of that, it was
probably sitting on the bottom of a lake after hitting
a cart path five six times, and it just don't
do that. But if it's close to a shade of
the if it's close to the color it was when
it was manufactured, and it doesn't have any gouges or

(01:12:09):
chunks out of it, play it, man, Why not?

Speaker 2 (01:12:13):
Why not some little X outs or something like that?
Not even I mean you can go lower than that grade.

Speaker 7 (01:12:18):
Man.

Speaker 2 (01:12:19):
Yeah, you find a.

Speaker 5 (01:12:20):
Little buckets of balls you can buy, like to be
a bucket fifty.

Speaker 2 (01:12:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:12:25):
If I'm a sharp audit, if I'm ever coming up
there again soon before you get into it and find
your own balls in the woods somewhere, I could probably
bring you a couple of gallons of them.

Speaker 5 (01:12:39):
Yeah, I got a lot, a lot, I guess when you're playing,
you just get a sharpie and just put your initial
or something.

Speaker 2 (01:12:44):
If you don't yeah, well yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:12:47):
Yeah, yeah yeah, once you start playing by the rules
and all. Now, if you and your buddy hit a
ball over into the woods kind of in the same spot,
and you get there first, and you find his ball
and it's a better ball than yours, just say, look here,
I am oh wow, we're playing the same ball.

Speaker 2 (01:13:05):
I didn't think I won't do that.

Speaker 4 (01:13:06):
Go ahead and play his You're not playing for money,
it doesn't matter. Have some fun. You know, golf can
be really really fun as long as you don't take
it too seriously.

Speaker 5 (01:13:17):
Knowing me, I'd likely just drop another ball off my
foot inside of oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:13:21):
There's an old joke about a guy who who was
helping his friend look for a ball in the you know,
high grass and stuff, and his friend says, oh, here,
I found my ball, And the guy said, I was.
I was in a really bad dilemma here because I
do I accuse him of dropping a ball there, or
do I tell him I've actually got his ball in

(01:13:41):
my pocket?

Speaker 3 (01:13:43):
Right what?

Speaker 2 (01:13:45):
They don't know? You know what I'm saying. It's a
fun game. You'll enjoy it, man, you'll enjoy I look
forward to that Moody Garden strip. I got to get
on the driving range and make it.

Speaker 4 (01:13:53):
Yeah, that's a tough course if the wind blow, and
that's a really tough course. If it's calm, which it
rarely is being right there on the coast, it's not
so bad. But if the wind's blowing it, that's that's
that course's that's that course's teeth right there, and it'll
drive you crazy, especially on the back nine. Holy cow,
there's some fairways that look pretty generous until you get

(01:14:16):
a ball up in the air on that coastal wind
and they'll ride it.

Speaker 2 (01:14:19):
It'll ride it right over to the airport property.

Speaker 5 (01:14:21):
I'm gonna try to go during the week with eight
as many people there so I don't have to have
people looking at me or play.

Speaker 2 (01:14:27):
I'll be I'll be waving people through a lot, come
all through.

Speaker 4 (01:14:29):
Like like I told you, man, nobody cares what you
do so long as you don't slow them down, that's all.
And if you if you've already hit the ball seven
times on a hole and the other guys are on
the green and they're tapping their foot, just put your
ball in your pockets out I'll start over on the
next tea.

Speaker 7 (01:14:45):
Don't worry about it, then, no big deal. Just keep
keep pacing it. Fine, so don't stop. And fish of
water has to say, well I've done that. I'd go lee, Yeah,
you'll look at some of that water and go. Man,
there's god to be redfish on this shoreline. There's just
gotta be.

Speaker 4 (01:15:02):
Oh, Melvine says, I gotta get out of here like
it always a.
