From a Listener
June/22/2010
Got this e-mail from a listener recently. It’s great when someone gets the chance to test our waters here in MN. And the smiles on those two boy’s face. Make’s one glad they love the outdoors.
Hi Tim,
Been listening to your podcasts for the last couple months in anticipation of a little family trip from North Carolina up to Pelican Lake with my relatives from the Twin Cities. We were there last week, and while we only had a couple hours to fish, we really got into some bass in a little deserted lake southeast of Pelican. We were naively expecting smallies, but got largemouths on our 1500 series reels and 6lb test. In our short trip we landed several bass in the 3-4 lb range, including the ones pictured, and several more healthy 2-pounders. My son and nephew really put a hurting on the panfish with little curly-tailed grubs, while my dad and I worked over the bass with weightless, weedless white flukes. Twitching the flukes just inside the weedline drew some aggressive strikes in the first couple hours of daylight.
Unfortunately the boys got hungry and we headed to the cabin for waffles. After that the rain and wind came in and our fishing was done. That said, I was mighty impressed with the bass fishing in MN. Thanks for your informative show – I’ll continue to listen as archery season approaches. I make an annual bowhunting trip each Fall with my lifelong buddies to Sawyer county Wisconsin, and look forward to your updates on what’s happening in the northwoods…
We also took in a Twins / Rockies game last Tuesday – beautiful new ball park you guys have up there. Cheers!

Changes on the Radio
February/13/2010
Now that the Vikings are finished for the season Outdoor Talk on KTLK 100.3 is back. Some of you are wondering what happened to KC O’Dea, my co-host. KC took a position in North Carolina working with some Clear Channel talk stations in Raleigh and Greensboro. It was a well-deserved promotion for O’Dea and I wish him all the luck in the world. Rob Drieslein, who is the editor of Outdoor News and used to host Saturday morning FAN Outdoors is joining me as co-host on Sunday afternoons. The show has moved from 5-7 p.m. to a new time slot, 4-6 p.m. to hit more of the traffic that is returning home from the weekend jaunts.
So join us every Sunday from 4-6 on 100.3 FM. If you are within 100 miles of the Twin Cities you can tune us in on the dial. If not we stream the show on KTLKFM.com and there is always a podcast available right after the show is over. That link can be found on the HOME page of this site.
Thanks to everyone for your loyalty as listeners and both Rob and I look forward to some great times ahead.

Outdoor Talk is Back
November/02/2009
Outdoor Talk Radio is back on 100.3 FM KTLK on Sunday nights. Actually we have a show this Sunday (November 8) but then the Vikings football games push us out again until their season is over. That should be around the second or third week in January. So we’re back by popular demand. Thanks to everyone who wrote and called and let them know at KTLK we were wanted back. The management at KTLK is great to work with and we are the longest running show they have. We started with the station as soon as they made the transition to talk. So tune us in or pick up the podcast. WE’RE BACK.
