“Bayou Wisdom: Mike Cauley & the BayouCajun Plott Legacy PART 1

In this episode of Tusks & Tales, I get the honor of sitting down with someone who has truly inspired me in my journey as a houndsman — Mike Cauley of Bayou Cajun Plott Hounds. Mike isn’t just a respected name in the hog hunting world; he’s a mentor whose passion, wisdom, and dedication have shaped the way I look at hunting with dogs.

We dive into his story, the tradition behind his Cajun Plott hounds, and the knowledge he’s gained from a lifetime in the woods. From the way he breeds and trains his dogs to the lessons only experience can teach, Mike shares insights that any hunter — beginner or veteran — can learn from.

This conversation is more than just hunting talk; it’s about legacy, inspiration, and the bond between a houndsman and his pack. If you’ve ever wondered what it takes to carry on tradition while leaving your own mark, Mike’s story will light that fire.
