This weeks last discussion is about old time lures we still buy and use today. The fishing industry has come a very long way, but these lures are still very relevant today. Other discussions include Pat's boat upgrade, Jim's first time out this year, a crazy charter boat captain, and so much more. In the news this week we have Great Lakes water levels, no more weekend duck hunts in Kansas, water withdrawal report from Wisconsin, and spawning brook trout in Minnesota. Let me know your must have lures at themidwestfrontier@gmail.com and thanks for listening!!!

This is our first crack at bi-weekly episodes. We cover all kind of news such as cougar cubs in Michigan, bobcats in Indiana, wasted money in Illinois, fishing license price hikes in Wisconsin, new walleye limit in Mille Lacs, and Ohio fisherman fined. We talked about our first attempt at stuffing sausage and how we made it into a small get together. One question we had for the listeners is, are Dakota Lithium batteries worth it? Any comments or questions email us at themidwestfrontier@gmail.com and thanks for listening.
