Alligator Gar
Blake Moulton invites Yia down to the "Alligator Capital of Texas"--not to hunt gators but to fish for the six to nine-foot monsters known as "Alligator Gar." Once considered a trash fish, alligator gar is now considered a sporting fish. It is starting to be recognized for its delicious clean, white filets that yield almost no waste, and its role in the ecosystem. For Yia, the only goal is not to be bitten by the alligator gar or its neighbor-the alligator.
S3 E3
Okie Hogs
Chef Jonathon Stranger invites Yia to Oklahoma to tackle a new and tasty problem in the Sooner state. Wild hog numbers are rising in central Oklahoma as they push north from Texas-an issue the Circle M Lodge knows all too well. Jonathon takes Yia to Circle M, where they can hunt the troublesome invaders day and night.
S3 E4
Paddlefish
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.
S3 E5
Catfish Noodling
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.
