  • Emerald Bowfin: Honey Badger of Fish!
    Apr 6 2026

    Get to know the Emerald Bowfin, one of two native species of bowfin found in North America! Always hungry and angry, this gamest of fish is a dedicated parent and will roll and jump spectacularly on the end of your line if hooked...and once landed, it about as close as you can get to holding a living dinosaur. Guests Griffin Blegen and Tyler Winter help Katrina and Guy dig into where this fish is found, its aggressive personality, how their dietary habits help you catch bigger bluegill, how to best cook bowfin at the water's edge, and why you absolutely should NOT throw this treasure on the bank like trash.

    Get to know the American Star Drum: an abundant, silvery little bulldog-faced fish that feeds everything from popular sportfish to beloved birds and dolphins! Katrina and Guy are joined by two Georgia-based guests: Rachel Guy with the Sapelo Island National Estuarine Research Reserve/Georgia DNR and Bryan Fluech with the University of Georgia Marine Extension and Georgia Sea Grant. You'll learn about the biology of this fish and other lesser-known drums, the key role of estuaries, the Estuarine Fish Monitoring Cooperative, and coastal Georgia's fish/crustacean ID tool "What's My Bait."

I learned tons of interesting facts about various kinds of fish listening to this show.
Fish of the Week brought many interesting fish to my attention that I previously did not know about.
I just wish more time could be given to each guest and each fish. Sometimes episodes seem to end right as they get interesting.
It would be nice to get more scientific information such as the cladistics, but each episode acts as sort of an introduction to a species, and encourages me to do more of my own reading/research on the fish that interest me most.
I hope they keep making these forever.

I learned lots of information about lots of fish!

Informationally this is a pretty good podcast but not impressed at all by the entitlement of Dr. Mike Armstrong, his cocky demeanor was unpleasant and annoying to listen too. Would of been more enjoyable if he would have taken it a bit more seriously.

Informationally good not impressed with Dr. Mike Armstrong
