  • Fall Fishing: Understanding the Transition

    Fall Fishing: Understanding the Transition
    2026/09/25
    Fall is a season of transition and that means the way you find and catch fish starts to change. On this week’s Tackle Box Tip presented by Icon Coolers, Captain Jonathan Moss is joined by Captain Bobby Woodard to break down what anglers should be paying attention to as summer gives way to fall and eventually winter. From changing bait patterns and the fall mullet transition to shrimp, fish movement, water temperature, sun position, and slowing down your presentation as winter approaches, Jonathan and Bobby talk through how to recognize the changes happening on the water and adjust your game plan. They also discuss why keeping a Captain’s Log can be one of the best tools an angler has, helping you remember where fish were, what they were eating, and how conditions changed from year to year. Whether you fish freshwater, the flats, backcountry, creeks, beaches, or inshore waters, the transition into fall is a great time to start paying attention to the details. Get prepared. Watch the patterns. Follow the bait. And keep a Captain’s Log. ***Subscribe to The Captain’s Log for more fishing adventures, outdoor stories, conservation conversations, and family-focused content from the water and beyond. ***Follow along on Instagram and Facebook. https://www.instagram.com/thecaptainslogtv/ https://www.facebook.com/thecaptainslogtv/ ***Like, subscribe, comment and ring that bell!

    2026/09/23
    What would Colorado Amendment 83 actually do? In this episode of The Captain’s Log Outpost, Captain Jonathan Moss breaks down Colorado’s Amendment 83 and the proposed constitutional right to hunt and fish. The discussion covers how Amendment 83 would establish a constitutional right to hunt, fish, and harvest wildlife, what the amendment says about traditional hunting and fishing methods, wildlife management, scientific data, state regulations, licenses, private property, and public safety. Jonathan also compares the proposal with Florida’s constitutional right to hunt and fish, which was approved by voters in 2024, and discusses how Colorado could become the 25th state with a constitutional right to hunt and fish. The episode also looks at: What Amendment 83 would add to Colorado's constitution What a constitutional right to hunt and fish does — and does not — mean Traditional hunting and fishing methods Wildlife population management The role of scientific data and the state's wildlife agency Hunting and fishing licenses and regulations Private-property protections Public safety and conservation provisions The example of shark fishing in Southwest Florida Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson funding Florida's experience with its constitutional right to hunt and fish Why Colorado's Amendment 83 is being discussed as part of a broader movement among states The Captain’s Log Outpost covers fishing, hunting, conservation, gear, public-land and wildlife issues, and the stories that come with living life outdoors. ***Subscribe to The Captain’s Log for more fishing adventures, outdoor stories, conservation conversations, and family-focused content from the water and beyond. ******Follow along on Instagram and Facebook. https://www.instagram.com/thecaptainslogtv/ https://www.facebook.com/thecaptainslogtv/ ***Like, subscribe, comment and ring that bell!

    Trump’s New Hunting & Fishing Executive Orders Explained
    2026/09/21
    This week on The Captain’s Log Radio, Captain Jonathan Moss is joined by Captain Bobby Woodard for a deep dive into the latest federal actions affecting hunters, anglers, and outdoor recreation. On September 17, 2026, President Donald Trump signed two executive orders focused on hunting and saltwater recreational fishing. In this episode, Jonathan and Bobby break down what the orders say, what still has to happen before many of the proposed changes take effect, and what they could mean for access, wildlife management, fisheries data, youth hunting education, hunters with disabilities, recreational fishing, artificial reefs, and more. The conversation also goes beyond the executive orders and looks at the importance of state constitutional rights to hunt and fish, including Florida’s Amendment 2 and Colorado’s upcoming Amendment 83. Topics covered include: •The new federal hunting and fishing executive orders • Access to federally managed and landlocked public lands • The Pittman-Robertson and Dingell-Johnson/Sport Fish Restoration programs • Wildlife management and “hyperabundant” species • Lead ammunition and fishing tackle • Sunday hunting restrictions • Youth hunting and archery education • Increased access for hunters with disabilities • Modernizing recreational fishing data collection • Recreational anglers’ role in fisheries management • Red snapper and fisheries data • Artificial reefs and habitat restoration • Florida’s constitutional right to hunt and fish • Colorado Amendment 83 • Why public access and conservation are closely connected • The North American Model of Wildlife Conservation Jonathan and Bobby also discuss their experience working on Florida’s 2024 constitutional amendment and why they believe hunters, anglers, birders, hikers, and other outdoor recreationists have overlapping interests when it comes to protecting access to public resources. The goal of this episode is to understand what is actually being proposed, what the timelines are, and why these issues matter to the outdoor community.***Subscribe to The Captain’s Log for more fishing adventures, outdoor stories, conservation conversations, and family-focused content from the water and beyond. ******Follow along on Instagram and Facebook https://www.instagram.com/thecaptainslogtv/ https://www.facebook.com/thecaptainslogtv/ ***Like, subscribe, comment and ring that bell!

    Taking Kids Fishing: Keep It Simple | Tackle Box Tip
    2026/09/18
    Taking kids fishing doesn't have to be complicated . Sometimes the simplest trips create the best memories. In this week's Tackle Box Tip Presented by Icon Coolers., Captain Jonathan Moss is joined by his four-year-old son, Sy, to talk about what makes fishing so much fun for kids. After recently discussing fishing with kids, Jonathan brings Sy along to share his own perspective, including his favorite fish to catch, his favorite bait, what kind of rod he likes to use, and why he loves getting out on the water. From catching trout and croakers on shrimp to chasing barracuda on vacation in the Florida Keys, the lesson is simple: keep it easy, keep it fun, and make memories together. Kids don't necessarily care how big the fish are. They care that they're catching something, spending time with you, and having fun. Whether you're taking your kids fishing for the first time or trying to get them more interested in the outdoors, don't overcomplicate it. Grab a simple setup, find some willing fish, and get out on the water. ***Subscribe to The Captain’s Log for more fishing adventures, outdoor stories, conservation conversations, and family-focused content from the water and beyond. ******Follow along on Instagram and Facebook https://www.instagram.com/thecaptainslogtv/ https://www.facebook.com/thecaptainslogtv/ ***Like, subscribe, comment and ring that bell!

    That Boat Crash was CRAZY | Captain Reacts
    2026/09/16
    A boat being towed down the highway, a collision, and a reminder that a simple piece of safety equipment can make a huge difference. In this Captain Reacts episode of The Captain’s Log Outpost, I watch a video of a boat being struck while traveling on a Florida highway and share my thoughts on what happened and why properly securing your boat matters. We talk about transom straps, retractable Boat Buckle systems, different ways to secure a boat to a trailer, and the importance of making sure your boat and trailer are ready before you hit the road. It’s cheap insurance. Take a few extra minutes to make sure your boat is secured properly before heading to and from the water. ***Subscribe to The Captain’s Log for more fishing adventures, outdoor stories, conservation conversations, and family-focused content from the water and beyond. ******Follow along on Instagram and Facebook https://www.instagram.com/thecaptainslogtv/ https://www.facebook.com/thecaptainslogtv/ ***Like, subscribe, comment and ring that bell!
