This week on Outdoor Journal Radio, Ang and Pete are joined by Carleton University's Dr. Steven Cooke to talk winter fish migration, ice fishing science, and much more!

First, however, some housekeeping was in order. Topics discussed include: pushing buttons; Beyonce; January trolling; what Izaak Walton's take on Acid Perch would have been; accidentally killing big fish; being out of order; whether big fish taste worse and the best ice fishing destinations in Canada.

With those matters out of the way, Ang and Pete head to the phones and are joined by Dr. Cooke. Topics discussed include: rambling; winter walleye migration; where bass go during the winter and why they have no choice; being where the food is; why winter kills happen; fare-weather biology; knowing when to strap on the feedbag; whether warm weather sends fish back into fall-mode; winter catch and release; how often fish need to eat in cold water; studying Common Carp to learn about invasives; and much more!
