    The episode doesn't just focus on the catch. We'll also discuss important conservation issues facing our oceans. We explore how old oil rigs are being repurposed, the creation of artificial reefs for fish populations, and the impact of growing shark populations on the marine ecosystem. We share stories about our experiences on the water, highlighting the need for responsible fishing practices to ensure healthy oceans for future generations.

Top shelf tales!

Wide range of topics, guests and perspectives. Our family loves this show, it’s been so fun to see it grow. James does a fabulous job at asking the questions we all want to know while broaching tough topics with an open minded and thoughtful perspective. Really, there is something for everyone here. So happy to see Grandma Janie back, the wisdom we all want and need in a grandma! Not to mention the validation I needed to increase garden size beyond my better judgments. Keep ‘em coming!

Information overload

I was looking for a new podcast a few months back. Something really informative. My brother turned me on to Mr Jim Nash with 6ranchoutfitters. I am a big bear hunter, I went straight to the bear hunting and biology podcast. Loved every second of them. Learned lots.
Thanks for your service Nash. Keep educating us all.
Cheers Rick

One of the best with calloused hands!

James has made an awesome podcast. His guests are amazing and tell stories that have meaning and are relatable. If you have ever been to some of the places James or his guest describe it’s as if you are right there with them. Keep doing what you do James!
