Chris Richards’ passion is moose hunting. And he pursues Maine’s largest game animal every year. No, he doesn’t have anyone pulling strings for him at the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. Even if he isn’t lucky enough to be chosen in the permit lottery, he also works as a guide with OMM Outfitters in Eagle Lake. Richards draws on his considerable experience in the field as the host for the new Moose Hunt Podcast, the state’s first podcast dedicated to moose hunting. On the podcast, Richards and the team of 31 Registered Maine Guides at OMM Outfitters — the state’s largest moose hunting operation — share their knowledge with moose hunters from Maine and beyond, a gift for those unable to hire a guide for their own hunt.
