Let's face it, we're all busy. The sad part is that most of us get so busy that we sabotage our own days by having all of the things that really matter out of order. We say that family is important, yet we barely give our families and spouses much of our time. We say that God is important, yet we don't set aside time to talk to HIM (unless it's convenient). If you've ever felt overwhelmed and are...

Listen in as we show the easiest way to catch a bun...

In this hard-hitting episode about pornography and what it is doing to our relationships, families, and kids, we have on Kyle Vardeman to discuss everything he's discovered after years of research on the negative effects of porn.

We've said it time and time again... one of the main keys to becoming a consistent inshore saltwater angler is to become a specialist with one or two lures.

Let's just say he had a record-breaking personal year, caught more snook and red...

Let's face it, fishing groups on Facebook just aren't what they used to be. And that's coming from someone who started what is now the largest saltwater fishing group on Facebook. But sadly, these groups have become filled with negativity, obscenities, spam, and now even Facebook itself deciding what the users can see. Listen in as we discuss the online community that we are spending all of our ti...
