Our translator station serving St. Francis and Cheyenne County at 96.3 FM is off the air due to an air conditioning breakdown at its leased transmitter site, making it too hot for HPPR's equipment to operate. We are currently working to fix the situation. We apologize for the loss of service and ask listeners to tune to KZNK at 90.1 FM or listen on line through the player above or HPPR's mobile app.

Outdoors writer, radio host and book author Luke Clayton has been addicted to everything outdoors related since his childhood when he grew up hunting and fishing in rural northeast Texas. Luke pens a weekly newspaper column that appears in over thirty newspapers.
Presenting baits horizontally is a deadly way to entice strikes during the warm weather months, and this week's guest, Omar Cotter, is a master of the art.
Luke gives some Texas destinations for a summer fishing trip this week. Just a couple days ago, Luke traveled up to Lake Texoma to fish with his friends at Striper Express. The fishing is recovering quickly from the high water a few weeks ago and live shad was the ticket to some line-stretching action.

Listen to Luke's weekly podcast, "Catfish Radio with Luke Clayton and Friends", just about everywhere podcasts are found.
This week, let's talk fishing - White bass fishing! Folks on the High Plains will likely have white bass in a lake or reservoir near them, and these fish are good eating. We'll talk about how to catch some for your own table!
