Paddlefish in Oklahoma

Luke's guest this week is guide Lance Lutke (www.lancesguideservice.com) and the subject is fishing for paddlefish. Oklahoma fishing regulations allow the harvest of paddlefish and Lance discusses the best methods he uses to regularly catch these good eating fish. Paddlefish fillets are much sought after and are often compared to swordfish. Remember, paddlefish are protected in Texas waters so i'ts necessary to head north of the Red River to get in on the action.
