Duck Season Somewhere – Details, episodes & analysis

Moving out west with "an anti-hunter from Toronto" to pursue an electrical career was one thing, but the sheer abundance of waterfowl hunting opportunities in Alberta changed Ben Commodore's life. He's now on Cloud 9. Literally. As part of the renowned Ranchland Outfitters team, Commodore delivers some of the most amazing waterfowl hunting experiences on the North American continent. We cover a variety of interesting topics to include current habitat conditions and landscape changes, hunting in Alberta, favored species, top-shelf staffing, customer expectations, warmer winters, and the new Alberta non-resident alien licensing.

Father-son team, Jamey and Layne Roberts of Tuscaloosa, Alabama, spend quality time together duck hunting and scouting. It was duck hunting that sparked 14 year-old Layne's interest in waterfowl conservation and how his Eagle Scout project could make a difference near home. Good stuff!

Sam Necaise grew up deer hunting in south Mississippi with his dad. In many ways, his younger days remind me of my own. Maybe similar to yours, too. But big bucks were pretty tough to come by  where he grew up--unless you knew a place where few people hunted. Because it was posted.  And maybe folks willing to break a few little laws are willing to break bigger and more. Maybe the lines even start getting blurry. And maybe some folks even relish an outlaw reputation.   Until the hammer falls.  This is the second of a special 3-part series that you do not want to miss! Hang on, folks, this story might punch you in the gut on a few different levels.

"It effects lives. Like tumbling dominoes, it affects relationships," says Gene Campbell about the fateful event. Y'all know my friend, Gene Campbell of Oyster Bayou Hunting Club in southeastern Texas. From past episodes, y'all have come to know him as a since-forever duck hunter (personally and professionally), a staunch conservationist, avid birder, nature observer and self-taught waterfowl habitat expert. But on December 13, 1986, he was met by agents at the boat ramp, handcuffed in front of clients, and taken into federal custody as part of a sweeping, statewide dragnet. Today he tells that story.

Kennie Prince lurked deep beneath the surface, operating deep undercover, penetrating nefarious poaching rings that illegally ransacked wildlife resources--migratory game birds, paddle fish, furbearers, deer, you name it--for profit, usually, or just plain fun. For 15 years he was just another outlaw, somehow maintaining his cover despite numerous headline busts. Prince talks about growing up and getting into wildlife law enforcement, detailing some of the big stings leading up to "Operation Stoned Duck," his final undercover case. This is the first of a special 3-part series that you do not want to miss! Hang on, folks, this series might punch you in the gut on a few different levels.

"It's a true moment of discovery in waterfowl science," says Michael Brasher, DU Senior Waterfowl Scientist. And the program relies on North American hunter-conservationist participation. Brasher and waterfowl geneticist Phil Lavretsky explain the purpose of the new duckDNA program, how to apply (see link below), and how the data is collected simply. Via leg band recoveries, hunter harvest reporting and parts collections, North American hunters have long participated in waterfowl conservation. Welcome to the future--where you become the scientist!

A sign reads, "Rule Number 1: No tales told on this islands shall be repeated on the mainland!" The Mississippi Wildlife Heritage Museum in Leland, Mississippi, is a huge repository of stories from throughout the state. The Mississippi Outdoors Hall of Fame is located there. You don't have to be from Mississippi to recognize some of the legendary names represented. Billy Johnson explains why he thinks Mississippians have influenced the entire US hunting industry, and what makes folks candidates. Good stuff.

It doesn't happen by accident. A lot goes into making a successful, season-long blue-winged teal hunt like this reality. Today, Steve Biggers of Rocky Creek Retrievers Team Waterfowl explains the inner workings and introduces team members Marcus Lagrange, Tracey Andreas, Joey Hanks and Len Vaughn.  In describing the 16-day Texas blue-winged teal season from their varied perspectives, you'll understand why so many hunters migrate to this destination to hunt blue-winged "rice rockets," and what the experience entails.
