Making Old Timers Mad - Fishing Forecasts, Deer Movement & Self Deception

On this episode of That Don’t Sound Right, Peter and Cecil wade into one of the great outdoor debates: can you really predict what animals are going to do?

From fishing forecasts in old almanacs to deer movement charts, moon phases, barometric pressure, turkey season lore, and generations of hunting wisdom, the guys explore the long tradition of people trying to “read” nature before heading outdoors. Do fish bite better under a full moon? Can weather shifts predict deer activity? Or are we all just buying fancy calendars and hoping for the best?

Along the way, Peter and Cecil swap stories about fishing, backpacking, getting startled by turkeys, and the kinds of outdoor advice that gets passed down as absolute truth—even when nobody’s completely sure where it came from.

As always, the conversation stays true to the spirit of That Don’t Sound Right: no instant Googling, no live fact-checking, just good old-fashioned conversation and the collective expertise of whoever’s around the table.

Whether you’re a hunter, fisherman, outdoorsman, or just someone who’s heard an old-timer confidently predict animal behavior based on the moon, this episode is packed with laughs, nostalgia, and a few theories that may—or may not—sound right.
