This week’s episode of the 2 Pelicans Podcast brought all the spice, saltwater, and stirring you’d expect – and maybe a little more.The Boys were thrown a gauntlet from none other than the One More Throw Podcast crew: a local derby challenge hosted by the Clarence Valley Sports Fishing Club. This wasn’t just a friendly throwdown—it was the talk of the town. With OMT putting runs on the board in recent weeks, the Pelicans were up against it and knew it. But if there's one thing Pelicans do best (besides catch fish and ruffle feathers), it's stirring the shit can – and stir it they did, all in good fun.So... how did they go? Well, you’ll have to listen to the episode for the full blow-by-blow, but let’s just say things didn’t exactly go by the book – unless that book involves banter, unexpected outcomes, and some serious on-water drama.ABT Double Header – Aftermath and CarnageAs if the derby wasn’t enough action, the lads also break down the chaos and highlights of the ABT double header. From the early starts to the last-minute upgrades, it was a weekend full of hard casts, close calls, and maybe a few regrets. Who climbed the leaderboard? Who cooked it? And who still can’t find their favourite lure? It’s all in there.Wait… a Seagull Screeching Contest? Where’s the Pelican Love?And finally, in the world’s most unexpected twist—there’s apparently a seagull screeching contest. We’re not making this up. So the big question is: Where’s the Pelican screeching showdown? If seagulls get the glory, surely it’s time for the big birds to shine?We say: bring it on.🎧 Tune in now for all the action, laughs, and chaos on this week’s episode of 2 Pelicans Podcast.Who’s your money on in the screech-off?Support the show

EP 38 - Unorganised Chaos & Tech Disaster: Behind the Scenes of Our Latest Podcast Episode
This week on the podcast, we had some unfortunate tech troubles, and if we're being honest, it was a bit of a disaster. What we had originally planned as a smooth trip to the Bassmaster Classic ended up being more like an episode of “What Could Go Wrong?” Technology had other plans for us—think mud gudgeon level chaos.But hey, sometimes things don’t go as expected, and that’s all part of the journey. After a very busy start to the week, we brushed ourselves off, rolled with the punches, and got back to the important stuff: fishing. We dove deep into everything fishing-related, including the highly anticipated ABT Bream Series for the Clarence.Tech Chaos and the Mud Gudgeon IncidentLet’s be real: the weekend was meant to be our grand adventure at the Bassmaster Classic, but instead, we found ourselves tangled up in tech hiccups that made us feel like we were battling a stubborn mud gudgeon. From failed connections to malfunctioning gear, it was a perfect storm of frustration. But in the world of podcasts and content creation, these things happen, and you just have to laugh it off.We were excited to bring you all the behind-the-scenes action from the Bassmaster Classic, but with the tech gremlins messing with our plans, we had to pivot. After a few moments of mild panic, we remembered what’s important: fishing.Bouncing Back and Diving Into the Bream SeriesAfter surviving the tech nightmare, we jumped into some solid fishing talk. The ABT Bream Series at the Clarence River is on our radar, and there’s plenty to get excited about. If you’re a fan of fishing tournaments, you know this event brings its own set of challenges, but it also showcases some of the most skilled anglers around.We dug into everything you need to know about the series, the strategies, and, of course, the fishing. It wasn’t just about the fishing techniques, though—we also shared a few behind-the-scenes insights from the event, with some personal takes from the team.Next week, we’re hoping for smoother sailing—though we’ll be prepared for the unexpected!Support the show
