Usually around this time of year you have to search for something cool to do. Well, something warm to do that's fun, I guess I should say. It's been so cold out that nobody really wants to spend a huge amount of time outside. That's why we've got the huge Cabin Fever Sports Show, and it's getting closer by the day.

Man, now that the fair is over, it’s time to get down and get my redneck on. I’m talkin' fishin', huntin' and bow-shootin. Man, I am ready.

I've been fishing before, but never in Missouri. Well, Huntin' Harry took me out to the Lake of the Ozarks with Catfish Expert Chris McElfresh, and man, was it a blast!

Well, it's getting dry: wet spring, dry summer.  Man, do we need some rain.  I sprained my ankle in a crack in my backyard it was so big.  Anyway, that's summer in Missouri.

Young hunters and fisherman are invited to the J.A.K.E.S. event in Warrensburg. J.A.K.E.S. (Juniors Acquiring Knowledge, Ethics and Sportsmanship) is an outdoor program designed to help youth sharpen their outdoors skills.

What did I tell you?  We're out of the cooler and into the fire with mid-90s this week.  What the heck happened to the mid-80s?  Oh well, I guess it couldn't last, but it's summertime and that means getting outside, hitting the great outdoors and having a redneck good time (no pun intended, you'll be getting a red neck from the sunburn).

Okay, cool temps and moisture are better than last year at this time and the food plots are looking good.  We're getting ready to put out cameras and try some Bigtine.  They've got it at Rusty Toad Archery in 40 lb. bags for less than $20.  I can't wait!

Hundreds of kids, parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins and pets showed up a Liberty Park in Sedalia on Saturday for the annual "Kids Fishing For a Cure" event.
