The guys compare river fishing in a PNW to bass fishing in the south and Tucker shares what his experience has been like hunting whitetail for the first time since relocating to Middle Tennessee. The three of them bond of being mama's boys and Tucker shares a top GCP story about his mom going out for a bounty hunt when she was 6 months pregnant with him.

Fun!

Awesome hearing all the types of stories, the brother banter and the encouragement to get new people hunting. The attempts to drop the "if it ain't a 150+ class deer it ain't worth shootin"
