Ep. 180: BEAR GREASE [RENDER] - Mississippi River, Ski Jumping, & Donnie Baker Discussion
About this episode
On this episode Clay Newcomb is joined by Brent Reaves, Drew Stoecklein, Lake Pickle of OnX, Jordan Blissett of Open Season Properties, and Mike Amden. The crew discusses Clay and Brent’s recent 250-mile trip down the Mississippi River and Bear Grease's most recent poaching episode. Mike gives some insight into catfishing the Mississippi River, while Brent relays the frustrations of having Clay as the Cub Pilot of their SeaArk boat. The last section highlights many of the questions raised in the Donnie Baker episode in which a 204-inch buck was illegally taken on the Fort Leonard Wood Military base in 2009. This episode is full of laughs and serious moments, and in the final story, Drew shares about his professional skiing career and how he landed a cover photo on Skiing Magazine when he jumped over a semi-truck at Loveland Pass in Colorado.
