On this episode of Outdoor Journal Radio, Ang and Pete regroup between shoots and get into some of the most pressing and controversial conservation topics in Canadian fishing today. The crew dives deep into the push to ban forward-facing sonar on Eagle Lake, debates the government's call for commercial fishers to kill up to 500 striped bass per day, and reflects on the legacy of the Fish’n Canada barbless hook initiative. Also up for discussion: new merch, listener feedback from Alberta, the “grass carp problem,” and why live scope is NOT a cheat code for catching fish. Plus, Pete gets nostalgic about family fishing trips, and Ang shares a personal story about George, the 12-foot boat tournament legend who shocked everyone.
