Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton & Friends Podcast

Catfish Radio Podcast Show Notes: April 11th Segment 1: Campfire Talk and Outdoor Rendezvous Host Luke Clayton and his co-hosts recap their recent successful outdoor rendezvous at the Top Rail Cowboy Church in Greenville, Texas. The crew shares details of a fantastic camp cookout featuring snow-white blue catfish, which was expertly filleted by "Mr. Whitetail" using his signature skinning knife and fried alongside thin-sliced potato chips. The gathering felt like a family reunion with plenty of live entertainment from musical guests, including Samuel Old, Marshall Allen Bailey, Cowgirl Janie, and Philip Farmer's blues band. Luke shares a fascinating story about Jeff Rice crafting a functional turkey friction call out of a giant freshwater mussel shell and a piece of hardwood. The segment wraps up with a reminder about the upcoming DSC Oklahoma chapter event in Oklahoma City and the DSC Foundation Gala in the summer. Segment 2: Fishing Adventures in Saskatchewan Luke shifts the focus to fly-in fishing adventures in the pristine waters of Northern Saskatchewan, Canada. He recommends the Tourism Saskatchewan website as a perfect starting point for anyone looking to plan a trip, offering resources for everything from do-it-yourself camps to full-service lodges. A DIY trip for five days can be very affordable, providing a cabin, boat, and motor, while allowing anglers to do their own cooking and fish cleaning. Luke recounts the thrill of catching massive northern pike, including a memorable 51-inch pike that hammered a flashing spoon in about three feet of water. The segment also highlights the deep indigenous hunting culture of the region, featuring a story about a First Nations gentleman who hunted moose and caribou with a traditional bow. Segment 3: Crappie Fishing with Chris Webb Cedar Creek Lake crappie guide Chris Webb joins the show to discuss the spring crappie spawn. Chris explains that the fish are currently in various stages, meaning anglers can find them anywhere from 15 feet deep on brush piles to just a foot of water in the creeks. Wind conditions heavily dictate the fishing strategy; on calmer days, Chris prefers shooting docks, while windy days are better spent picking fish off deeper brush tops. When it comes to bait, Chris uses jigs for about 80 to 85 percent of the year, reserving live minnows primarily for the heat of the summer when the crappie become more finicky. Listeners looking to book a trip can reach out to Chris Webb's Guide Service to get in on the excellent spring crappie, sand bass, and hybrid action. Segment 4: Wild Game Cooking Tips In the final segment, Luke puts on his camp cook hat to share his top tips for preparing wild pork and wild turkey. For wild hogs, Luke suggests passing on the smelly older boars and targeting younger, fatter hogs for the best tasting meat. He details his method for slow-smoking wild pork backstraps injected with butter and spices, wrapping them in foil, and finishing them in a crockpot for incredibly tender pulled pork. Luke then addresses wild turkey, urging hunters not to throw away the legs and thighs, which are often discarded due to their tough feather bones. By heavily seasoning the dark turkey meat, wrapping it tightly in foil with bacon and olive oil, and steaming it in a smoker for a few hours, the meat falls right off the bone and makes fantastic wild turkey fajitas.

Show Summary: Join Luke Clayton and his good friend Larry Weishuhn around the campfire for a packed April 4th episode of Outdoors with Luke Clayton and Friends! This week, the guys recap the massively successful 7th Annual Outdoor Rendezvous, share a wild story about a 200-pound boar hunt, and discuss upcoming events like the DSC Summer Expo.

Segment 1: Campfire Talk & The Outdoor Rendezvous The episode kicks off with introductions from Larry Weishuhn and David Fox. Luke and Larry recap the 7th Annual Outdoor Rendezvous in Greenville, noting that a surprisingly cool 70-degree day made for perfect campfire weather instead of the predicted 80-85 degree heat. The gathering brought together 300-400 people for live music, fried fish, and Luke's slow-cooked smoked barbecue. The hosts discuss their TV show A Sportsman's Life (available on YouTube and CarbonTV), mentioning Larry's recent hunt in England for fanged "vampire deer". Luke teases a story about a recent hog hunt with his CVA .223 and ATN Thor Mini 6 thermal scope, where excitement led to him backing his truck into a tree and losing a mirror. Segment 2: Slow-Cooked Wild Hog & The DSC Summer Expo Luke finishes his hunting story, detailing the harvest of a mature, 200-pound wild boar with razor-sharp tusks. To ensure the meat was tender, Luke slow-cooked the backstraps and hams overnight in a crockpot with jalapeños and garlic, serving the pulled pork at the rendezvous. The conversation shifts to the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Summer Expo, taking place July 23-26 at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, Texas. Larry and Luke encourage listeners to attend the massive four-day conservation and hunter advocacy event, which will feature over 400 booths. Segment 3: Houston County Lake with Mike Colarusso Luke welcomes Mike Colarusso, owner of the former Crockett Family Resort on Houston County Lake. Mike details the property's transition to the Crockett Lakefront RV Resort and Marina, highlighting major renovations like a brand-new event center, upgraded pools, and Wi-Fi.

Segment 1: Outdoor Rendezvous and Choctaw Hunting Lodge Host Luke Clayton and guest Larry Weishuhn discuss the annual Outdoor Rendezvous taking place on March 28th at the Top Rail Cowboy Church in Greenville, Texas. The event features live music, chuckwagons, booths, a Dallas Safari Club presentation, and a fish fry utilizing freshly caught blue catfish. They also discuss Larry's recent experiences at the Choctaw Hunting Lodge, including using Stealth Vision optics and the lodge's expansive 40,000-acre property. Segment 2: Blast from the Past with Bill Dance This segment features a classic interview with legendary angler Bill Dance recorded at a boat ramp. Dance explains the science behind using slow-moving baits for big bass, emphasizing "selective feeding" where fish weigh the energy required to catch prey against its nutritional value. They also discuss the importance of establishing a proper rhythm and utilizing extended pauses when topwater fishing to trigger strikes from mature fish. Segment 3: Catfishing on Lake Tawakoni with Tony Pennebaker Luke speaks with guide Tony Pennebaker about the transition from trophy blue catfish season to "eater" catfish season on Lake Tawakoni. Pennebaker notes that fish are currently being caught in six to nine feet of water, though they will soon move to shallower depths of two to three feet. He shares his current setup, which includes using six to seven rods, 6/0 or 7/0 hooks on Santee rigs, and fresh cut shad or perch for bait. Segment 4: International Big Game Hunting with Matt Burgess International hunting guide Matt Burgess recounts his recent trips, including a combination hunt for Marco Polo sheep and Ibex at 15,000 feet on the Afghanistan-Tajikistan border. Burgess describes witnessing camel caravans on the historic Silk Road and discusses the use of Toyota Land Cruisers in Tajikistan versus horseback in Kazakhstan. He also previews an upcoming polar bear hunt where hunters will travel by dog sled and camp on the ice to pursue mature bears weighing up to 1,500 pounds.

Segment 1: Campfire Talk & Hunting in England Host Luke Clayton and guest Larry Weishuhn discuss Larry's recent hunting trip to Suffolk County, England. Larry details his experience hunting two unique, primitive deer species: the Chinese water deer and the Muntjac. He explains that the Chinese water deer lacks antlers entirely but features elongated upper canines, or fangs, that protrude heavily. The Muntjac is described as a small, prehistoric-looking invasive species that weighs about 30 pounds and possesses tall pedicles, short antlers, and fangs. Segment 2: Historic English Estates & Deer with Fangs Larry shares details about their lodging at the Waveney House Hotel in Beccles, a historic structure built in 1540. They discuss the history of fallow deer in Europe, noting that the Romans historically introduced herds of them to new areas to provide a food source for their soldiers and settlers. The segment highlights the profound contrast between modern hunting and the deep history embedded in hunting on 500-year-old English estates that feature centuries-old castles. Segment 3: Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Larry discusses his deep involvement with the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) and the DSC Foundation, detailing their dedication to wildlife conservation. He explains the rapid growth of the DSC chapter system, which currently includes around 30 chapters globally. Larry outlines the organization's fundraising model, explaining that 75% of funds raised stay with the local chapter, 20% goes to the DSC Foundation, and 5% supports the primary DSC organization. Segment 4: Striper Fishing with Bill Carey Luke speaks with Bill Carey of Striper Express about the current fishing conditions on Lake Texoma. Bill highlights a recent trend of catching "Magnum" white bass (sand bass), with many of the fish weighing up to three pounds. He shares his highly successful technique of using three-inch sea shad lures on half-ounce jigs in shallow, five-foot water to "match the hatch" of the current baitfish.

Segment 1 – Campfire Talk Luke Clayton opens the show with his familiar “Campfire Talk” with Mr. Whitetail, Larry Weishuhn, talking about hunting in England, the upcoming annual outdoor event in late March and more great outdoor fun talk about hunting and wildlife! Segment 2 – Guide Chris Webb of Creek Crappie In this segment, Luke visits with fishing guide Chris Webb of Creek Crappie, who specializes in crappie fishing in the creeks and tributaries feeding major reservoirs. Chris explains how rising spring temperatures push crappie into shallow creek systems where they stage before spawning. He shares techniques for locating active fish, including using electronics to identify structure and focusing on brush piles, timber, and creek bends. Chris also discusses productive bait presentations and how anglers can take advantage of these predictable seasonal movements to enjoy some excellent crappie fishing. Segment 3 – Chris Webb Continued Luke continues the conversation with Chris Webb, diving deeper into crappie tactics and seasonal patterns. Chris talks about how water clarity, current flow, and baitfish activity influence where crappie hold in creek systems. He offers practical advice on selecting jigs, adjusting colors based on water conditions, and working cover methodically to find active fish. Chris also shares stories from guiding trips and explains how anglers of all experience levels can enjoy success during the spring crappie run by focusing on the right locations and maintaining a patient approach. Segment 4 – Luke’s Funny Campfire Stories To wrap up the show, Luke shares a few humorous and memorable stories from his years in the outdoors. From unexpected mishaps on fishing trips to funny moments involving fellow anglers and guides, Luke reminds listeners that the outdoor lifestyle is about more than just catching fish—it’s about the experiences and memories made along the way. His lighthearted storytelling brings the show to a close with a reminder that sometimes the best part of a day on the water is simply the laughter shared with friends.

Catfish Radio – February 28th Show Notes Join Luke Clayton and friends for an action-packed episode featuring hunting adventures, spring fishing strategies, and a legendary musical guest. Segment 1: Campfire Talk & International Hunting Luke is joined by his long-time friend Larry Weishuhn for their weekly "Campfire Talk". Larry shares highlights from the Dallas Safari Club Convention and discusses his upcoming trip to England on March 1st to hunt unique species like the Chinese Water Deer (known for its long fangs instead of antlers) and Muntjac. The Rendezvous: Luke and Larry invite everyone to the 7th Annual Outdoor Rendezvous in Greenville, TX, on March 28th. Expect live music, campfire cooking, and plenty of storytelling. Segment 2: Spring Bass Patterns on Lake Fork Luke checks in with veteran guide Dennis Canada to discuss transition patterns as March approaches. Water Temps & Wind: Dennis emphasizes that even a 4-5 degree difference in water temperature can drastically change fish activity. He advises targeting the northern, shallower ends of the lake which warm up faster in the afternoon sun. Lure Selection: Early March is prime time for jerkbaits, glide baits, and chatterbaits on secondary points as big bass begin to move shallow. Pro Tip: Don’t fear the wind! Wind stirs up plankton and pushes baitfish toward the banks, creating ideal feeding conditions for lunkers. Segment 3: The Art of Jug Line Fishing Luke and Jeff Rice recap a successful trip to Donnie Rice’s private lake, where they caught a haul of blue catfish using modern "jug lines". Modern Gear: Instead of old glass milk jugs, they use swimming pool noodles with PVC pipe cores. Strategy: They use cut bait and set lines to drift with the wind across the lake. Jeff notes the importance of checking lines frequently, as big catfish can often pull the noodles completely underwater. Where to Watch: You can see the footage of this trip on A Sportsman’s Life on YouTube or CarbonTV.com. Segment 4: Bluegrass Legend Larry Sparks In this special segment, Luke interviews the iconic Larry Sparks, a pioneer in Bluegrass music. Musical Journey: Larry reflects on his 63-year career, starting at age six when he earned five dollars for singing in church. He discusses his time playing lead guitar for the Stanley Brothers in the mid-60s before launching his own solo career. Philosophy: Larry credits his success to keeping his music natural and "becoming the song". He maintains a hands-on approach to his business, managing his own bookings and social media.

Show Highlights 1. DSC Convention and Squirrel Hunting DSC Convention: Luke and Larry kicked off the show discussing the recent Dallas Safari Club (DSC) convention in Atlanta, noting it was a massive success that raised significant funds for wildlife conservation. Cotton Ranch Hunt: The duo recounted a recent squirrel hunt at the Cotton Ranch in Kaufman County with Donnie Lynch and his prize-winning squirrel dog, "Stubby" (a mountain feist/rat terrier mix). Weather Conditions: The hunt took place right after an ice storm; the weather was cold and windy, keeping the squirrels in their dens, so the hunting was tough. Campfire Cooking: Larry shared his technique for grilling crispy chicken thighs over red-hot coals. Luke shared a humorous story about improvising a breading for fried chicken using crushed Triscuits, saltines, and Doritos because they had no flour at the camp. 2. The Truth About "Coydogs" Guest: Steven Ziggler from The Hunting News. The Myth: Steven discussed the controversial topic of "Coydogs" (coyote-dog hybrids). He explained that while they can breed in captivity, there is zero documented proof of F1 (first-generation) hybrids occurring in the wild, despite a standing $1,500 reward for such proof. The Science: The lack of wild hybrids is likely due to breeding cycles; dogs breed twice a year, while coyotes only breed once, and their mating rituals differ significantly. Most animals identified as "coydogs" are usually just color phases of coyotes or dogs. 3. Hunting Consulting Guest: Wade Derby of Crosshair Consulting. Services: Wade explained his role as a consultant who vets outfitters personally to help clients book hunting trips worldwide, from Africa to Saskatchewan. Advice: He advised hunters to plan ahead, noting that tags for species like antelope in Wyoming and New Mexico often require entering draws early in the year. 4. Trinity River Fishing Report Guest: David Cox of Palmetto Guide Service. White Bass Run: David reported excellent fishing on the Trinity River above Lake Livingston. Despite recent weather, the river is currently low, clear, and lacking strong current. The Catch: They are catching "magnum" white bass (sand bass) in the 2lb range. David recommends trolling deep (25–30 feet) with larger baits like 3/4 oz Rat-L-Traps to target these bigger spawning fish. 5. Sponsors and Mentions Stealth Vision: Dr. John McCall’s optics. Ultramatic Feeders: Hunting blinds and feeders. Smokin' Tex: Electric smokers. Pyramid Air: Air guns and accessories. Choctaw Hunting Lodge: Southeast Oklahoma hunting destination. Here is the summary of each segment for the February 14, 2026, show notes: Segment 1: Campfire Talk & Squirrel Hunting DSC Convention: Luke Clayton and Larry Weishuhn discuss the recent Dallas Safari Club convention in Atlanta, noting the large crowds and successful fundraising for wildlife conservation. Cotton Ranch Squirrel Hunt: The hosts recount a squirrel hunt at the Cotton Ranch in Kaufman County with Donnie Lynch and his champion dog, "Stubby." Luke notes that despite the dog's skill, the squirrels stayed denned up due to the freezing weather following a recent ice storm. Campfire Cooking: Larry shares his technique for grilling crispy chicken thighs over hot coals. Luke shares a story about improvising a breading for fried chicken using crushed Triscuits, Saltines, and Doritos because they forgot the flour. Segment 2: The Myth of the "Coydog" Guest: Steven Ziggler from The Hunting News. F1 Hybrids in the Wild: Steven discusses the lack of scientific evidence for first-generation (F1) coyote-dog hybrids in the wild. He mentions a standing $1,500 reward for genetic proof of a wild F1 hybrid that has never been claimed. Breeding Cycles: The absence of wild hybrids is largely due to mismatched breeding cycles (dogs breed twice a year, coyotes once) and behavioral differences, as coyotes typically view dogs as threats or food rather than mates. Misidentification: Steven explains that most animals identified as "coydogs" are actually color phases of coyotes or domestic dog mixes like German Shepherds or Huskies. Segment 3: Hunting Consulting with Wade Derby Guest: Wade Derby of Crosshair Consulting. Consulting Services: Wade explains his role as a consultant who connects hunters with vetted outfitters worldwide. He emphasizes that he personally visits locations—from Africa to Saskatchewan—to ensure quality experiences. Booking Advice: Wade advises hunters to plan trips well in advance, particularly for species like antelope in Wyoming and New Mexico, where tag draws occur early in the year. He notes that now is the time to finalize plans for fall hunts. Segment 4: Trinity River White Bass Report Guest: David Cox of Palmetto Guide Service. River Conditions: David reports that the Trinity River above Lake Livingston is currently low, clear, and lacking strong current due to recent freezing weather and low rainfall. Magnum Sand Bass: Despite the slow current, they are cat

Segment 1: Campfire Talk — A 20-Year Milestone Luke is joined by legendary outdoorsman Larry Weishuhn ("Mr. Whitetail") to celebrate a significant anniversary. Celebrating 20 Years: The duo reflects on their two decades of doing the radio show together. DSC Convention Recap: Larry shares highlights from the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention held in Atlanta. The Energy of the Community: They discuss the "family reunion" atmosphere of the convention, where hunters and outfitters from around the world gathered to reconnect. Segment 2: Hunting the Sonoran Desert with Larry Weishuhn Larry returns to dive deeper into late-season hunting opportunities and international adventures. Mule Deer in Mexico: The discussion shifts to hunting giant Mule Deer and Coues Deer in Sonora, Mexico. The "Gentleman's Hunt": They describe the "high-racking" style of hunting—spotting game from high seats on trucks before proceeding with a stalk on foot. Travel and Safety: Larry addresses common misconceptions about hunting in Mexico, emphasizing that rural hunting areas are professionally managed and safe for US travelers. Segment 3: Trophy Blue Catfish with Tony Pennebaker Professional guide Tony Pennebaker joins the show to share expert insights on the "Catfish Capital of Texas," Lake Tawakoni. Prime Trophy Season: Tony notes that while big blue catfish can be caught year-round, the peak season for 60-plus pound "trophy" fish is currently underway (running October through March). Techniques for Success: Drifting with Shad: The most effective winter method involves making long drifts using freshly caught shad as bait. Shallow Water Shifts: They discuss how eater-size blues are often found in shallower water as the weather begins to transition. Tony P's Punch Bait: The conversation highlights Tony’s own effective punch bait, which is a staple for both guides and bank fishermen on Tawakoni. Segment 4: The Art of Home Sausage Making Luke wraps up the show by turning the focus to processing game meat and filling the freezer. Bulk Sausage Basics: Luke explains that making high-quality sausage at home is "not rocket science" but requires the right fat-to-lean ratio (recommending an 80/20 mix). Essential Gear: For those starting out, Luke suggests simple tools like a hand-crank grinder and a large mixing bowl. Variety and Blends: Beyond Breakfast Sausage: Luke shares how he creates specialized blends for chorizo, Italian sausage for spaghetti, and bratwurst. Winter Comfort Food: The segment concludes with tips for using venison trimmings to ensure nothing goes to waste while keeping the family well-fed during the cold months.

Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Larry Weishuhn Luke is joined by his long-time hunting companion, Larry Weishuhn, for their weekly "Campfire Talk." Upcoming Events: Larry shares that he is heading to the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention in Atlanta, Georgia (February 6–8). Winter Fishing Plans: The duo discusses the upcoming White Bass run in the Sabine River and the 7th Annual Outdoor Rendezvous in Greenville, TX. Cormorant "Splattin" for Catfish: Luke recounts a recent trip to Lake Ray Hubbard with guide Brandon Sargeant. They used a technique called "splatting" near cormorant roosts, where the natural chum from the birds attracts large blue catfish. Success on the Water: Luke successfully filleted 37 blue catfish, ranging from 2 to 10 pounds, resulting in five gallons of fresh fish. Segment 2: Winter Striper Fishing with Bill Carey Luke welcomes Bill Carey from Striper Express to discuss the peak of the big fish season on Lake Texoma. Prime Season: January and February are the best months for targeting trophy-sized Stripers before they begin grouping up to run upriver in March. Techniques & Lures: The Roadrunner Jig: A staple for 40 years, typically a 1/2 oz white head tipped with a 7-inch white curl-tail worm. Subtle Action: Carey emphasizes using curl-tails or flukes rather than high-vibration paddle-tails, as the fish's metabolism slows down in cold water. The "Time Release" Hookset: In winter, the bite is subtle—often just a one-inch twitch of the rod tip as the fish "sucks in" the bait. Nature’s Cues: While birds are great fish-finders, they can be "liars" in mid-January as they dip for bait pushed to the surface by cold water rather than active feeding frenzies. Segment 3: Ice Fishing and Pike Spearing with Jeff Rice Jeff Rice calls in to report on a brutal but successful trip to the frozen north. Extreme Conditions: Jeff faced temperatures of 12°F below zero with a wind chill reaching -45°F. Walleye Fishing: Fishing in an "ice shanty," the team used live sonar (LiveScope) to watch Walleyes react to tiny jigging spoons in about 7 feet of water. Spearing Northern Pike: Jeff checked a major item off his bucket list by spearing a 39-inch Northern Pike. The process involves waiting over a rectangular hole in the ice and using a decoy to lure the fish in. The heavy 7-barbed spear must be tethered to the hunter's arm and aimed precisely behind the gill plates. Segment 4: Luke’s Smoked Winter Chili Recipe Luke closes the show with his signature method for making winter chili, stressing that the secret is in the smoke. The Meat: You can use ground meat or cubed roasts (venison, pork, or wild hog). The Smoking Process: * Sizzle the meat on a propane burner until gray, then move it to an electric smoker (like a Smokin-Tex). Smoke the meat uncovered in a cast-iron Dutch oven for about an hour using hickory or pecan wood. Ingredients: Add tomatoes, finely chopped onions, jalapeños, and the Wicks Fowler seasoning kit (or a blend of chili powder, cumin, garlic, and paprika). The Finish: Luke adds kidney beans and a touch of sugar, then lets the chili slow-cook at 225°F to allow the flavors to blend.

Cumulative Production Summary The January 24th edition of Catfish Radio is a celebration of tradition and technique. The episode is anchored by the chemistry between Luke Clayton and Larry Weishuhn as they celebrate two decades of broadcasting, using the time to promote conservation via the Dallas Safari Club and share practical tips on home-processing venison. The middle section of the show serves as a masterclass in "The Big Woods" hunting style. Guest Randy Flannery provides a fascinating contrast to the typical Texas tree-stand hunting often discussed on the show, teaching listeners how to aggressively track bucks in the snows of Maine and why a fast-handling lever action is superior to a long-range scope in that terrain. Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Larry Weishuhn Guest: Larry Weishuhn ("Mr. Whitetail") Topic: 20th Anniversary, DSC Convention, and Sausage Making This segment kicks off a milestone celebration as Luke and Larry mark their 20th anniversary of doing the radio show together. The conversation is a mix of nostalgia and current events. Milestones & Events: They discuss the upcoming Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention in Atlanta, Georgia (Feb 6-8), highlighting it as a premier conservation and hunting event. Recent Hunts: Larry shares details about a successful buffalo hunt in Texas and a recent trip to the El Durangueño Ranch in Durango, Mexico. Sausage Making: With freezers full of venison, the duo shifts to a "foodie" discussion. They reminisce about "old school" sausage making—grinding meat by hand and using simple seasonings versus modern electric grinders. Luke recommends Butcher Packer Supply for casings and spices, encouraging listeners that making summer sausage and bratwurst at home is easier than it seems. Segment 2: Tracking Deer in the North Woods Guest: Randy Flannery (Master Guide, North Woods of Maine) Topic: The Art of Tracking vs. Blood Trailing Luke travels (virtually) to the North Woods of Maine to speak with legendary tracker Randy Flannery. This segment focuses on the technical skills required to track live deer in snow. Tracking Defined: Randy distinguishes between "blood trailing" (finding a wounded animal) and true "tracking" (pursuing a healthy, moving buck to jump-shoot him). Buck vs. Doe Tracks: Randy explains a key physiological difference: Does are built narrower in the front, creating a track pattern that looks like a straight line. Bucks have a wider chest, causing their front tracks to be "staggered" or wider than their rear tracks. Aging a Track: He shares a "fist test" method for aging tracks in the snow. By making a fist print next to the deer track and comparing how the snow crystals degrade or freeze over time, a tracker can estimate how fresh the sign is. Segment 3: Reading the Woods & Fast Shooting Guest: Randy Flannery (Continued) Topic: Deer Behavior, Spotting Game, and Lever Action Rifles Continuing the conversation with Randy Flannery, this segment dives into the behavior of a pressured buck and the equipment needed in the thick Maine woods. Reading Behavior: Randy explains that when a buck starts "zigzagging" or meandering, he is looking for a place to bed down. This is the moment for the hunter to slow down. The Horizontal Line: A pro-tip for spotting deer in dense forests: Don't look for the whole deer. Look for the "horizontal line" of a deer's back, which stands out against the vertical lines of the trees. Firearms: The discussion turns to guns. Randy prefers open-sight lever actions (specifically the Winchester Model 94 or 1886) for their speed in brushy country. He notes that in Maine, hunters brag about the weight of the dressed deer (200+ lbs) rather than the antler score. Segment 4: Sporterizing Military Rifles Guest: Dustin Warncke (Show Producer & Host of Dustin’s Projects) Topic: Hunting with Surplus Military Rifles Producer Dustin Warncke joins Luke to discuss the hobby of collecting and modifying ("sporterizing") vintage military rifles for modern hunting. The Rifles: They discuss classic platforms like the Mosin Nagant, Mauser, and Enfield. Dustin notes that while some collectors are purists, modifying a damaged or common-stock military rifle is a budget-friendly way to get a reliable high-power hunting rig.

Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Larry Weishuhn Guest: Larry Weishuhn ("Mr. Whitetail") Topic: DSC Convention Recap & Late Season Hunting Luke and Larry kick off the show catching up after the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention. Convention Recap: They discuss the energy of the DSC convention, highlighting how great it is to reconnect with old friends and outfitters from around the world. Larry notes that despite the crowds, it felt like a family reunion for the hunting community. Late Season Opportunities: The conversation shifts to the field. Larry reminds listeners that even though mid-January marks the end of general deer season for many, there is still plenty of hunting to be done. He mentions upcoming opportunities for exotics and hogs, emphasizing that the hunting season in Texas never truly ends. Weather Talk: They touch on the bitterly cold weather sweeping through, discussing how it affects game movement and the hardiness required for late-season hunts. Segment 2: Mule Deer Hunting in Sonora, Mexico Guest: Wade Derby (Hunt Consultant, Crosshair Consulting) Topic: Giant Mule Deer of the Sonoran Desert Luke introduces Wade Derby, a veteran hunt consultant, to discuss one of the holy grails of North American hunting: Sonoran Mule Deer. The Attraction: Wade explains why Sonora is legendary—it produces mule deer with massive antlers, often exceeding 30 inches wide. He describes the unique desert terrain which allows for spot-and-stalk hunting. The Experience: They discuss the style of hunting, which involves "high-racking" (riding in high seats on trucks to spot game) and then stalking on foot. Wade emphasizes that this is a "gentleman's hunt" where you see lots of game, but patience is key to finding a trophy buck. Genetics & Management: Wade touches on how the ranches in Sonora manage their herds to allow bucks to reach full maturity, contributing to the region's reputation for record-book deer. Segment 3: Logistics and Mixed Bag in Mexico Guest: Wade Derby (Continued) Topic: Coues Deer, Safety, and Travel Continuing the discussion on Mexico, Luke and Wade dig into the logistics and other species available south of the border. Coues Deer: Beyond the giant mule deer, Wade highlights the Coues Whitetail, known as the "Grey Ghost." He describes the challenge of hunting these small, elusive deer in the higher elevations of the desert mountains. Safety Perception vs. Reality: Wade addresses the common concern about safety in Mexico. He reassures listeners that the hunting areas in Sonora are rural, peaceful, and heavily managed by outfitters who prioritize client safety. He states that the trouble spots often seen in the news are far removed from the hunting grounds. Travel Logistics: They discuss the ease of flying into Hermosillo and the professionalism of the outfitters in handling gun permits and transportation, making the trip relatively stress-free for American hunters. Segment 4: Wrap Up & Outdoor Cooking Guest: Luke Clayton (Solo/Wrap-up) Topic: Winter Fishing & Comfort Food Luke wraps up the show by shifting gears from international travel to local outdoor activities and cooking. Winter Fishing: Luke gives a brief report on the local fishing scene.

The episode successfully covers land, water, business, and humor, appealing to a broad spectrum of outdoor enthusiasts. Here is the summary for the Catfish Radio broadcast from January 10th, featuring host Luke Clayton, co-host Larry Weishuhn, and guests Bill Carey and Mark Lumus. Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Larry Weishuhn Guest: Larry Weishuhn ("Mr. Whitetail") Topic: Late Season Deer and the DSC Convention Luke and Larry open the show with their signature "Campfire Talk," focusing on the transition into the new year and late-season hunting opportunities. Weather and Deer Movement: They discuss the colder winter weather and how it impacts deer behavior, noting that while the rut is winding down, food sources are now the primary driver for deer movement. Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention: Larry provides a preview (or recap, depending on timing) of the DSC Convention. They emphasize the importance of this massive gathering for hunters, conservationists, and outfitters, describing it as a "must-attend" event for anyone passionate about the outdoors. Reflections: The duo shares thoughts on the past season, grateful for the memories made, and look forward to the spring hunting seasons approaching. Segment 2: Winter Striper Fishing on Lake Texoma Guest: Bill Carey (Guide, Striper Express) Topic: Deadsticking and Winter Tactics Luke welcomes veteran fishing guide Bill Carey from Lake Texoma to discuss the specialized techniques required for catching Striped Bass in the dead of winter. The "Deadsticking" Technique: Bill explains the art of "deadsticking," a popular winter method where lures are suspended motionless (or with very subtle movement) in the water column to mimic stunned or lethargic shad in cold water. The Bite: He describes the winter bite as subtle but rewarding. The fish are often schooled up tight, and once you find them, the action can be fast. Conditions: Bill notes that despite the cold, winter fishing on Texoma can be incredibly productive because the fish are concentrated. He advises anglers to trust their electronics to locate the bait balls, as the stripers will be close by. Segment 3: The Business of Wild Hogs Guest: Mark Lumus (Wild Hog Buyer) Topic: Trapping and Selling Feral Hogs In this segment, Luke interviews Mark Lumus to shed light on the commercial side of feral hog management—buying live hogs from trappers. Market Dynamics: Mark explains the process of buying wild hogs from landowners and trappers. He discusses the current demand and how prices fluctuate based on the weight and condition of the animals. Logistics & Regulations: They touch on the specific regulations regarding the transport of live feral hogs in Texas. Mark clarifies that hogs must be taken to approved holding facilities and cannot be released elsewhere, highlighting the role this industry plays in population control. Economic Incentive: The conversation illustrates how selling trapped hogs can help landowners offset the cost of feed and damage caused by these invasive animals, turning a pest problem into a small revenue stream. Segment 4: A Funny Hog Hunting Story Guest: Luke Clayton (Storytelling) Topic: The Lighter Side of Hog Hunting Luke closes the show by recounting a humorous personal experience from a past hog hunt, illustrating that things don't always go as planned in the woods. The Setup: Luke sets the scene of a hog hunt involving a night vision setup or a specific blind location where he expected an easy harvest. The Mishap: He details the comedic turn of events—likely involving equipment malfunction, a spooked sounder of hogs, or a case of mistaken identity in the dark—that resulted in a memorable "failure" rather than a full freezer. The Lesson: The story serves as a reminder to not take oneself too seriously and to enjoy the unpredictability of nature. Luke wraps up the episode encouraging listeners to get outdoors, whether fishing for stripers or chasing hogs.

Show Notes: Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton Date: January 3, 2026 Episode Summary To kick off the new year, Luke and Larry Weishuhn discuss the onset of the deer breeding season in South Texas. The show then welcomes Wade Derby from Crosshair Consulting for a two-part discussion on booking bucket-list adventures, ranging from Alaska to Africa. Finally, Luke wraps up the hour with a solo segment on the growing world of big-bore airgun hunting, sharing tips on getting within range of game. Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Larry Weishuhn Topic: The Rut in South Texas & Late Season Strategies. Discussion: Larry "Mr. Whitetail" Weishuhn joins Luke to report on the "second rut" occurring in North Texas and the primary rut just kicking off in the brush country of South Texas. Field Notes: Larry shares a story about rattling in a buck recently and emphasizes that despite the calendar turning to January, the hunting season is far from over. He notes that scrapes are being freshened up again and bucks are actively responding to rattling horns. Segment 2: Crosshair Consulting with Wade Derby Topic: Planning and Booking Hunts. Discussion: Wade Derby of Crosshair Consulting joins the show to explain the role of a hunting consultant. He discusses how he helps clients navigate the complex logistics of tags, travel, and outfitter selection. Featured Hunts: The conversation touches on accessible hunts for the "working man," such as black bear hunting, which Wade notes is a fantastic and affordable adventure compared to high-dollar sheep hunts. Segment 3: Worldwide Hunting with Wade Derby Topic: International Adventures & The "Bucket List". Discussion: Wade continues the conversation by shifting focus to international destinations. They discuss the appeal of African safaris, particularly for plains game like kudu and impala, which remain a high-value option for hunters. Insight: Wade advises listeners to stop putting off their dream hunts ("someday I'll go"), encouraging them to book now while health and opportunity align, rather than waiting for a perfect moment that might never come. Segment 4: Airgun Hunting with Luke Clayton Topic: The Challenge of Big Bore Airguns. Discussion: Luke closes the show discussing his passion for hunting with big bore air rifles (specifically .45 and .50 caliber). He explains that unlike long-range centerfire rifles, airguns require getting close—typically within 75 to 100 yards. Technique: Luke describes the satisfaction of the stalk and the necessity of getting "bow range" close, which brings the excitement of the hunt back to the basics of woodsmanship.

Discussion: Dustin Warncke discusses the history and value of “sporterized” military surplus rifles. Featured Firearm: Dustin highlights his recent acquisition of a 1916 Spanish Mauser in 7mm, explaining how these affordable, historic rifles can still be highly effective and accurate hunting tools when paired with modern optics. Segment 3: Winter Fishing on Lake Tawakoni with Brett Kilmer Topic: "Deadsticking" for sand bass and hybrids. Discussion: Guide Brett Kilmer explains the winter technique of deadsticking—holding a lure completely still in the water column to mimic stunned shad in cold water. Technique: Brett details using heavy 1-ounce jigs (often white or chartreuse) and "thumping" the bottom of the boat to attract schools of fish under the boat in 25–40 feet of water. Segment 4: Filming the Hunt with Jeff Rice Topic: Videography and late-season buck behavior. Discussion: Videographer and producer Jeff Rice talks about using digital scopes like the ATN X-Sight to film hunts directly from the rifle.

Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton & Friends December 20th, 2025 Segment 1: Opening, Hunting Plans, and a Wild Pork Recipe In this opening segment of the annual Christmas show, Luke Clayton and his regular guest Larry Weishuhn introduce the holiday theme and discuss upcoming hunts and cooking tips. Sponsors & Support: Larry extends Christmas wishes and thanks sponsors, including DSC (Dallas Safari Club), Trijicon, Stealth Vision, Taurus, and Vineyard Max. Upcoming Hunts: Larry shares his plans to visit the Choctaw Hunting Lodge to hunt a "broken horn" or non-trophy Oryx for meat, noting that he hopes for a cold day. Luke mentions plans to hunt management bucks and does at the Cotton family ranch with David and Edgar. Wild Game Cooking: Luke provides a detailed method for preparing wild pork backstrap. His tip involves removing the strap, cutting it across the grain into 5-inch pieces, slicing those lengthwise into thin strips, and pounding them flat. He recommends seasoning the meat, placing it in a Ziploc bag with Louisiana hot sauce and vinegar overnight, and then frying it with a flour, egg, and milk wash. Segment 2: Christmas Memories and Close Calls Luke and Larry reminisce about their childhood Christmases in the 1950s and 60s, sharing stories about family traditions and rural life. Early Hunting Memories: Larry recalls hunting squirrels and pecans with his maternal grandfather, AJ Ashenbeck, along Cummins Creek until he was about nine years old. The Country Store: Luke describes the Dimple community north of Clarksville, remembering the old country store with a rock-base pot-bellied stove where the "old timers" would sit and talk. The Christmas Tree Incident: Luke shares a story about cutting down a pine tree for Christmas with his father. While sawing the tree, an aggressive sow with her "hackles up" chased them, forcing his father to climb into the very tree they were cutting down. Segment 3: Guns of Christmas Past This segment focuses on the firearms and ammunition of their youth, alongside a specific hunting story from Luke's childhood. Vintage Ammo: The hosts discuss the scarcity and variety of .22 ammunition in the past, specifically the differences between .22 Shorts, Longs, and Long Rifles. Luke mentions that the "Long Rifle Hollow Point" was his deer cartridge of choice back in the day. Larry’s Camp House Memory: Larry recalls his family moving to a "camp house" in the woods for Christmas week, where they cooked stew and BBQ chicken on a wood stove. Luke’s First Deer Hunt: Luke recounts his first deer hunt around 1959 (age 8 or 9) with his brother-in-law and a friend known as "Mountain Man". "Mountain Man" shot a deer using a Chinese military bolt-action rifle with "steel jacket" bullets. The deer ran off, so the group went home to eat a breakfast of home-cured ham and cathead biscuits prepared by "Ma" before returning with dogs to retrieve the deer. Segment 4: Explosive Traditions and Holiday Wrap-Up In the final segment, the hosts wrap up the show with stories about unique family traditions and their first guns. German Christmas Traditions: Larry discusses his German heritage in Southeast Texas and a loud tradition his grandfather, a County Commissioner, practiced on Christmas Eve. The family would pack dynamite under stumps in the bottomland and blow them up to celebrate; Larry recalls one year when the blast broke windows in the house. Construction Site Cooking: Luke remembers working for a "powder man" on a construction crew in Arkansas and seeing an operator heat cans of "Sweet Sue Chicken and Dumplings" on the manifold of an excavator for lunch. First Guns: Larry remembers his first gun being a Red Ryder BB gun at age three, followed later by a single-barrel .410. Luke recalls receiving a J.C. Higgins single-shot .22 rifle at age eight. Closing: The hosts conclude by wishing listeners a Merry Christmas and encouraging them to remember the Reason for the Season!

CATFISH RADIO with Luke Clayton and Friends - Show Notes for December 13th Segment 1: Campfire Talk (12:44) Luke and his guest, Larry Weishuhn, share a "Campfire Talk" focusing on Larry's unique hunting experience in Far West Texas and a few outdoor announcements. Carmen Mountain Whitetail Hunt: Larry is currently in the Big Bend country hunting the Carmen Mountain Whitetail, a small subspecies found only in the mountains of West Texas and Northern Mexico (4,500 feet elevation and above). Subspecies Discussion: Larry explains that the Carmen Mountain Whitetail is arguably the smallest whitetail subspecies in North America, with bucks often field-dressed at only 45–60 lbs. and rarely scoring more than 80–100 Boone and Crockett points. The sheer size and remote habitat make the hunt unique. Hunting Conditions: Larry describes glassing and hunting the mountain terrain with the aid of his Stealth Vision optics and rangefinders. Announcements: DSC Convention: Reminder that the Dallas Safari Club (DSC) Convention is set for February 6th, 7th, and 8th in Atlanta. Sponsors: Mentions sponsors Hornady and Stealth Vision Optics. Future Hunt: Luke and Larry discuss their plans to hunt oryx at the Choctaw Hunting Lodge in the near future. ? Segment 2: Harry Wood NM Mule Deer Hunts (14:14) Luke interviews Harry Wood, a seasoned guide and outfitter who has been running hunts in New Mexico for almost 40 years. This segment focuses on an affordable and exciting archery-only mule deer hunt during the rut. The Hunt: Discussion of a five-day, archery-only mule deer hunt in southeastern New Mexico (between Artesia and Mayhill) during the rut (January 1st–15th). Pricing and Location: The hunt is presented as an exceptional value at $1,800 per person, with an over-the-counter license fee of $340. The ranch is over 9,000 acres in the foothills of the Sacramento Mountains. Drop Camp Details: The hunt is a drop camp setup, providing a heated tent, cots, lights, and gear—hunters bring their own food and handle their own cooking. Hunters are advised to bring a 4x4 vehicle. Hunting Methods: Harry explains the primary techniques used: spot and stalk, setting up at water sources (dirt tanks and troughs) during midday, and the effectiveness of calling and rattling (even using a predator call) to bring deer in, often resulting in close-range shots (20–30 yards) from brush or ground blinds. Contact Information: Harry provides his contact details for booking: 903-536-7130 (home) or 512-968-4430 (cell). ? Segment 3: Winter Bass Fishing (10:44) Luke talks with Dennis Canada, a longtime fishing guide on Lake Fork, about techniques for catching trophy bass during the cold winter months. Trophy Season: Dennis confirms that winter is a prime time for serious trophy hunters as female bass are at their heaviest weight of the year. Weather Sensitivity: He stresses that Lake Fork bass are highly sensitive to consistent weather. Once the weather stabilizes—whether it's consistently cold or warm—the fish will start to pattern. Sudden temperature drops will often shut down the bite. Recommended Techniques: Jigs: Dennis's main bait is a jig, which he fishes in a wide range of depths, sometimes as shallow as four to six feet in heavy cover. Carolina Rig: He considers the Carolina rig a year-round finesse option. Carolina Rig Setup: Dennis provides specifics on his preferred setup: Weight: 1-ounce bullet or barrel weight. Swivel/Keeper: Uses Carolina Keepers instead of a traditional knot and swivel. Leader: A leader of 36 inches up to four feet. Hook: A smaller hook to allow the bait to "free float". Action: A slow, bottom-dragging retrieve, often inch-worming the bait with the rod tip. The bite is often a subtle pressure change, not a sharp strike. Contact Information: Dennis Canada can be reached at 903-335-6524 for booking. Segment 4: Luke Shares a Great Winter Catfish Technique (6:34) Luke shares a unique and effective winter catfishing technique known as "Splating." This method gets its name from the sound of bait hitting the water, mimicking the droppings of cormorants (a migratory bird protected under federal law) that roost in trees over the water. This segment covers: The Origin of Splatting: How cormorants feeding habits create a specific feeding pattern for catfish. The Technique: Using a heavy cork/float (like a popping cork) and a piece of cut bait (such as shad or bream) to create a loud "splat" when cast near cormorant roost trees. Best Conditions: Explains that this technique works best on calm days near visible "cormorant trees" (trees whitewashed by droppings) in the upper ends of lakes. Tips and Caution: Advises on using cut bait and warns listeners to keep a safe distance from dead timber to avoid falling limbs. This technique is highly effective for catching blue and channel catfish in cold weather. Learn more about our radio show and companion podcast at CatfishRadio.org

CATFISH RADIO with Luke Clayton and Friends - December 6th Show Notes Segment 1: Campfire Talk with Luke & Larry Weishuhn Mr. Whitetail, Larry Weishuhn, joins Luke to discuss his deer hunt on Matthew Brown's land near the Red River, complimenting the landowner on his knowledge of the country. The Kill: Larry successfully killed a six-year-old buck that weighed 187 pounds on the hook. Hunting Time: The buck was taken at 12:03 PM in the middle of the day, confirming that mature bucks can move all day, especially during the rut, and emphasizing that hunters shouldn't be afraid to hunt during midday hours. Buck Behavior: The buck had a strong, musky odor associated with the rut. It was rattled in, initially turned to leave, and then stopped and came back toward Larry after he grunted at him. 🎯 Hunting Gear and Optics Larry discusses the specialized gear he used for the hunt: Rifle: A 7mm PRC rifle. Barrel: The rifle was fitted with an Aviant heat-releasing barrel. Optics: The rifle was topped with a Stealth Vision scope, which is manufactured in Crockett, Texas. Stealth Vision scopes use 34-millimeter tubes and feature an optional lighted reticle. These scopes have a little green light that indicates when the scope is level, which is the ideal time to pull the trigger. Bullet: He used a Hornady ELD-X 175-grain bullet, which he placed through about a "two-inch window" to hit the deer. Segment 2: Lake Texoma Striper Update (with Bill Carey) Prime Fishing Season: Bill Carey calls December "Remember December" and "the best of both worlds" for size and number of fish. Weather Conditions: He notes that December is the "peak of the fall" and that overall, the weather is getting warmer and milder than in previous years, making it a great time to fish, especially during Christmas break. Fishing Techniques & Gear: Under the Birds: Stripers are being caught "under the birds," which is impressive because they're catching 10-pound fish using this technique. The fish push the bait balls to the surface where birds spot them, and the anglers cast their jigs into the resulting feeding frenzy. Lures: The current top bait is jigs, using flukes that have a fork-tail or straight-tail (less vibration) on a three-quarter to one-ounce jig head. Retrieval: A simple medium retrieve works well, although the hosts admit to the old habit of shaking the jig. Strikes often occur on the pause. The Thumper: The use of an automated, motorized thumper (a rubber mallet in a box) is confirmed to work by sending sound waves that attract schooling stripers. This technique will be in its prime at the end of the month into January and February, alongside dead sticking. Striper Aggression: Stripers are very aggressive and curious, often resulting in multiple hookups or other stripers following the hooked fish right to the boat. Segment 3: Digital Night Vision (with Shane Kessler of ATN) Guest and Company: The segment features Shane Kessler, a pro-staffer with ATN Corporation, discussing night hunting optics. Digital Night Vision (ATN X-Site): Function: Digital scopes use a digital image that requires an external IR light to enhance visibility once the sun sets. It allows hunters to use one scope for both day and night hunting. Benefits: Features like video recording allow hunters to review shots, which helps locate game if no blood trail is found. The scope can stream live to an iPad or phone, enabling a coach to ensure a shooter's crosshairs are correctly placed. Limitations: Digital scopes are not good in heavy cover/brush because the IR light will refract off leaves and distort the image. Tips: Shane notes that the one-shot zero feature is very easy to use, and it is essential to properly align the IR beam to the scope's view. Segment 4: Thermal Scopes and Hunting Recap Thermal Scopes (ATN Thor LT): Function: Thermal scopes detect an animal's heat signature, allowing the user to "look through" brush and heavy cover, as the heat signature is unaffected by foliage. Affordability: Thermal scopes are now affordable (e.g., the Thor LTV at roughly $1,600) and are no longer out of the average person's price range. Models: The 320 resolution is sufficient for most hog hunters shooting out to 125 yards. High-end models (Thor 5) are available with built-in laser rangefinders and ballistic calculators for technical shooters. Visuals: Animals like turkeys appear "weird" or "prehistoric" through the thermal lens. Drawbacks: The main issue is judging distance without a laser rangefinder. The show concludes by reinforcing that it is still a great time for deer hunting and encourages listeners to visit the show's weekly TV program, "A Sportsman's Life," on YouTube or Carbon TV.
