[June 01, 2013] Southeast Kansas teens like to hunt, fish, and shoot video Tweet Jun 01, 2013 (The Kansas City Star - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- If ever there were a couple of overnight sensations, the BS Boys are it. Otherwise known as Chance Brake, 16 and Sid Smith, 14, of Caney, Kan., the duo started off as just a couple of close friends who loved to hunt and fish. Then they bought a video camera. "We just wanted to video some of our hunts to show our friends," Brake said. "But once we posted them on the Internet, it just took off from there." "We were really surprised." Today, the boys who live in the small town in southeast Kansas, are dreaming big. Since they started with a video on hunting coyotes last winter, they have developed a following. A video on fishing for big catfish got more than 1,000 hits. And others among their series of six have also attracted viewers. They have covered everything from how to clean a shotgun to how to cook venison and spoonbill to how to catch and clean rabbits. They'll be the first to tell you that their work isn't professional grade. Not yet. They're still learning. That means there are moments when the camera shakes, when the sound is muffled and when there is too little dialogue. But just the same, Brake and Smith have a following. "Our dream is to one day make the Outdoor Channel," Smith said. "All I know is that we're having fun with this. We hardly go hunting or fishing anymore without bring the video camera along."
