Mule Deer Euro Mount Episode 54

November 28, 2022 13:00 - 25 minutes - 29.6 MB

A simple little episode that I recorded while preparing my mule deer buck for a so-called "euro mount". This is the second time I've performed this home taxidermy procedure. The first time was under the excellent tutelage of Kevin Kossowan while cleaning my big whitetail buck last year. That skull turned out amazing. Since recording this episode of the Food Afield Podcast, I've come across many knowledgeable folks who have different ways of cleaning the skulls, which I think is wonderful! ...

Grasslands Mule Deer part 3 - Kevin's Mule Deer

November 26, 2022 13:00 - 55 minutes - 50.6 MB

The last day and night at the Grasslands Shack for Kevin and John. This episode focuses on Kevin's success with his antlerless draw tag. A very long stalk ends in a great way for us! This episode has a lot of chat about age-class choices regarding targeting animals for food outcomes. You also get to listen in on our typical morning routine when we're in the field, but this time, we're freezing cold! This will be the last episode of the grasslands series for 2022, so I hope you enjoyed hear...

Part two of the Mule Deer expedition continues in this episode of the Food Afield Podcast. Kevin and John are in the grasslands and the blizzard hits hard! The temperatures plummet to minus 18 degrees Celsius, but that doesn't matter too much. There are two deer, including John's big buck, skinned and hanging in the shack, and the woodstove is working hard. This episode continues John's story on the first morning and picks up as the doe and the big buck are headed straight towards him. Kev...

50 A Day in the Boreal

November 01, 2022 00:00 - 34 minutes - 23.8 MB

The 50th episode of the Food Afield Podcast. Happy Halloween! This episode finds Kevin Kossowan and me in the familiar surroundings of the northern boreal forest. We've decided to multi-task with some wild food ingredient procurement this day. It is a long day, many hours, and many kilometers of hiking, but we accomplish a few things. The first task is for Kevin to set up his three trail cameras. This has become a fun pastime for us in recent years. We get to see some pictures of game th...

Kevin's first Cranes ever! The season for Sandhill Cranes here in Alberta is only two years old.  Wingshooting and stalking birds on the prairies is intensely challenging, and Kevin was perfect on his first opportunity of the trip.  This episode was filled with firsts.

47 Whitetail Venison Sausage - Kevin and John in the Kitchen

October 04, 2022 00:00 - 31 minutes - 21.6 MB

This is a new-old episode. Previously unheard footage of Kevin and I in the kitchen talking about whitetail venison while we cut up the front end of my whitetail buck. Then, a few weeks later, in early December, we're in the kitchen out at the farm putting together whitetail breakfast sausage. These are some good discussions about both dry aging, braising, and cutting up your whitetail venison as well as sausage ideas. Perhaps a few thoughts on these subjects that you hadn't considered...b...

46 Traditional Bowhunting - John's Biggest Buck!

October 02, 2022 01:00 - 30 minutes - 21 MB

November 24th, 2021 was a day that I'll remember for a very long time. I had hunted hard the entire fall. The goal was simple, harvest a deer with my antique recurve bow. I hadn't connected with a whitetail with my recurve for 12 years! Mostly because I hadn't really tried.  For the previous two years, my focus and energy to be successful at traditional bowhunting had been re-ignited. In the fall of '20 I had missed a large buck...and then had another miss at a doe at close range. I was dis...

Tom is a competitive fly fisher and is a wealth of knowledge on fishing efficiently and productively...and w...

September 27, 2022 04:00 - 31 minutes - 21.9 MB

In this episode, Garreth and I head out into the Grouse Woods in search of Ruffed Grouse. This episode contains a few stories of upland bird hunting from my youth, especially when we travel back to Nana and Papa's farm to hunt. Being in that space always makes me nostalgic, and having Garreth around to ask me to share stories is a good excuse to talk about past times spent in the woods with a shotgun and dog. Plenty of tips in this episode on how to hunt upland birds too.  At the end of t...

A couple of years ago I met Joel on a remote foothills stream. Then again this summer, I met him, on the same water. Neither of us visits this river often, so I took it as a sign that I needed to follow up with him to try to fish together. One afternoon, not long ago, I found myself driving into Joel's yard at the Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary near Cochrane, Alberta.

Tom is back in town and we have one day to fish together. It is decided that we'll head back to the place where fly fishing started for both of us. The Forestry Trunk Road in northern Alberta.  The fishing is tough with waters that are blown out with run-off and recent rains. However, we manage to put together a great episode, filled with fly fishing information and stream-side audio. Actually, much of the time I was recording from the middle of the stream!
