    Bass Vision: Your Tacklebox Needs Four Colors (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    A team from Illinois and Cornell measured 246 individual cone cells in largemouth bass eyes and found only two types — one green, one red. No blue cone at all. Then they tested it on live fish: bass couldn't tell chartreuse from white, or blue from black. The takeaway is four buckets: bright, green, red, and dark.

    What a Speckled Trout Actually Sees (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    In 2008, researchers at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science put an electrode on the eyeball of a live spotted seatrout and asked the fish directly. The answer doesn't match the tackle wall. Two color channels instead of three. No ultraviolet at all. And the fastest eye of any fish in the study. I break down what the science actually found, correct a popular claim that this study proved trout can't see green, and gets honest about why a Chesapeake Bay study needs an asterisk before you apply

    Teal Season: 600,000 from No Season at All (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Ponds went up 14%. Blue-winged teal went down 11%. Both numbers are from the same report, and neither one is a mistake. Texas gets nine days of teal this September — the 19th through the 27th — for the second year running. We break down the arithmetic that decides season length, why this year's numbers are different from last year's, and the subtraction nobody's doing out loud: we're about 600,000 birds from having no September teal season at all. -Get Outdoors and Find Your Peace- Subscribe to

    Swimbaits with Alan Bell (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Alan Bell was one of the first anglers throwing big swimbaits on the Highland Lakes. Twenty-five years later he has 85 bass over seven pounds, and roughly 18 over ten. He talks glide baits, hand-carved Japanese baits that cost $300, eight-and-a-half-foot rods, and why he pulled every Senko, spinnerbait and crankbait out of his boat and never put them back. Plus the counterintuitive one: he owns forward-facing sonar and barely uses it — mostly to avoid throwing an expensive bait into a tree. Link

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    Texas opens statewide Sept. 1 for the first time ever, and the Special White-winged Dove Days are gone. What changed, what'll get you cited, and why that Sept. 14 date existed in the first place.
