Standing at an impressive height of nearly three feet, the Jack Rabbits inhabiting the lands of Taos Pueblo have long served as a valuable protein source for its people during times when larger game was scarce. Yia loves rabbit but has never tasted jackrabbit. After a quick Taos history lesson with Richard Aspenwind, Yia is invited to hunt with Michael, Isaac, and Andrew- where he quickly learns that finding a rabbit in the sagebrush is no easy task.
The largest of the ground squirrel family, the prairie dog was once a viable food source for the Pueblo people in New Mexico. However, they fell out of favor in the 1960s when they were confirmed to carry the bubonic plague. Now, the prairie dog population is out of control and destroying the alfalfa feeds used to feed the buffalo. Yia joins Martin, Delbert, Michael, and Joseph as they harvest and try this long-forgotten protein.
Hands down, one of the most exciting ways to reel in a catfish is through noodling. In the great State of Oklahoma, it goes by the name of "hand grabbing," and Yia is in for an unforgettable adventure alongside local noodling world record holder, Nate Williams. Joined by his children and the talented Chef Jonathon Stranger, they all eagerly anticipate Yia catching the noodling bug or, better yet, a catfish that will serve as the centerpiece for a delightful dinner.
Known as the "spoonbill" within the local community and hailed as the "paddlefish" nationally, Yia gets the opportunity to fish for this ancient, heavily-regulated species alongside local fishing guide, Lance Lutke. Fishing isn't quite the correct term because the only way to catch this filter feeder is to snag them with a treble hook, using electronic sonar. Yia hopes to be successful enough snagging to feed Lance and the local Mayor their catch.
In the crystal clear lakes of Northern Wisconsin lurks a peculiar creature... the Chinese Mystery Snail which gets its namesake from female snails giving birth to young, fully developed snails that suddenly and ""mysteriously"" appear. Utilized for its high protein, low fat content in China, the mystery snail is a food source believed to aid in treatment of digestive disease. Eager to explore this feral snail as a food source, Yia travels to Clear Lake to meet up with Wisconsin Fisheries Specialist Titus Seilheimer, who's seen first hand the explosion of these snails at his family's lakefront resort.
Common carp are one of the most widely introduced species of fish in the world. However, most people in the U.S. won't eat them, referring to them as a ""trash fish."" Bowfisherman and fishing guide Curt Cich will tell you otherwise, as these fish are fun to bowhunt, have plenty of fresh meat and are delicious smoked. These fish are so plentiful, Curt runs a year-round full-time guiding service targeting only carp.
In the land of ten thousand lakes, Leech Lake stands out, because it's the third largest lake located entirely within the state of Minnesota. Known as a destination for walleye, pike and muskie fishing, Leech Lake attracts fishermen from all over the Midwest... and that's where the trouble began. Fishermen from the Ohio River Basin brought rusty crawfish up to Leech Lake as bait... and when done fishing, they released them, inadvertently giving the rusty crayfish a new home. Now, the rustys are pushing out the native crayfish, and destroying the weed beds the muskie, pike and walleye depend on. Fishing guide Phil Bauerly sees the destruction daily. To combat the rustys, Phil regularly throws lakeside crayfish boils for family and friends... and Yia just received his invitation to join.
A once sought-after pet, the green iguanas escaped their terrariums in the 60's and found the Florida eco-system to be a much more hospitable environment to call home. Free to roam the canals, parks, and suburban neighborhoods, these pets-gone-feral have exploded in both size and population, causing hundreds of millions of dollars of damage a year in Florida. Urban hunter Michael Onega is doing his part to clean up the environment by removing as many iguanas as possible, limiting their population spread. The singular goal - to make sure the iguanas never establish a healthy breeding population in the Everglades. Yia joins Michael and his trusty Labrador Scout on Michael's mud boat, as they patrol the canals in Michael's backyard. The only thing better than Scout retrieving the fallen iguanas, are BBQed iguana and iguana tacos cooked up in Michael's backyard.
If you asked experts what the most prevalent predator species in the United States is, without hesitation, the answer would be the Burmese pythons in the Florida Everglades. Growing up to 26-feet long and weighing as much as 200 pounds, the Burmese python has completely altered the ecosystem of the Everglades by eliminating over 99% of the native mammal population. To save the 'Glades, the hunter has become the hunted as Dusty ""Wildman"" Crum has made it his mission to eradicate this species. Luckily for Yia, python is considered a delicacy in many countries, and Dusty believes these constrictors should be restricted to life on a plate, which helps take a bite out of the problem.
The feral hog is one of the most formidable species on the planet. Possessing a unique combination of high reproductive capacity, size, and adaptability, the feral hog absolutely decimates entire ecosystems. With pork chops on his mind, Yia travels to the Florida/Alabama border to join Jennifer Bearden and Zack Franks who are doing their part to help control the rampant feral hog population menacing Florida.
