My First Spring Turkey | Michigan Walleye Opener | Salmon in the Classroom | DISCOVERING


Subscribe:


Episode 86 - I have three new stories for you tonight! First is a quick recap of my first successful spring turkey hunt and it only took me 20 days to bag my bird. Then I join my friend Matt for a morning of fishing on the Michigan Walleye/Pike opener. And we watch 100+ kids release the salmon they raised in their classrooms all school year, into the Black River Harbor on Lake Superior.

If you want to hear more of my turkey hunt it's on my podcast: www.discovertheuppodcast.com
