Forward Facing Sonar / Fair Chase – Modern Carnivore Podcast – (Ep: 051)
Forward Facing Sonar / Fair Chase – Modern Carnivore Podcast – (EP:051) This episode of the Modern Carnivore Podcast was recorded at the 2025 Backcountry Hunters & Anglers North Country Ice Breaker. The event provided an opportunity to capture insights from three experienced outdoorsmen on the topic of fair chase. Specifically, we focused on forward facing sonar technology and how it is changing the fishing experience (and potentially catch rates). Publications like Outdoor News have been reporting on this topic for years. Some state agencies have started to address the topic directly, but many are holding tight and waiting to see where things go. Let us know if you have thoughts on how this technology can be best used, and what restrictions (if any) should be put on it.     Guests on today’s podcast include: Mike Hehner from Linder Media Productions Greg Kvale – Board Member of Minnesota Backcountry Hunters & Anglers David Lien is a co-founder of the Minnesota Chapter of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers Other Posts You May Like https://modcarn.com/conse

Chronic Wasting Disease – New Diagnostics – Modern Carnivore Podcast – (Ep: 048)
Chronic Wasting Disease – New Diagnostics from Priogen – Modern Carnivore Podcast – (EP:047) In this episode of the Modern Carnivore Podcast Mark talks with Dr. Peter Larsen and Marc Schwabenlander from the startup diagnostics company Priogen. The company is on the cutting edge of diagnostics and testing for prions. Prions are the misshapen proteins that are the foundation of what’s called Chronic Wasting Disease. This disease affects many deer each year and it’s 100% lethal to the deer that gets it. For these reasons and more, the work being done by this organization is very important to the future of hunting.     Other Posts You May Like https://modcarn.com/cwd-field-test-mcp-ep024/ https://modcarn.com/podcast-007-chronic-wasting-disease-in-deer/ https://modcarn.com/darkhouse-spearing-beginners/

Rue has a forthcoming book titled Nature Swagger. You can find it on Amazon, or anywhere that books are sold. The Outdoor Afro mission states that they “…celebrate(s) and inspire(s) Black connections and leadership in nature”. Since she was a young girl Rue has loved being in the outdoors. Her father had a ranch north of Oakland, CA where he would hunt, fish and invite others to stay with the family and celebrate life. She continues her own outdoor adventures as an adult with a spirit of hospitality that she learned from her father. Life also has her venturing down new paths and recently she began hunting with outings alongside Holly Heyser from the Center for Humans and Nature as well as our friend Janis Putelis from Meateater. Since the recording of this episode she has also collaborated with tennis star Venus Williams and announced a new clothing line in partnership with REI. So, to say that Rue is busy these days is an understatement. We hope you enjoy this episode of the Modern Carnivore Podcast, and we’re sure you’ll see a lot more of Rue Mapp in the coming years.
