| EP 631. From Mudflats to Mallards: A Fresh Perspective | 03 Nov 2025 | 01:27:13 | |
Ecologist Jason Hoesksema of Delta Wind Birds offers a fresh, think-outside-the-box perspective on waterfowl habitat management in agricultural settings, connecting shorebirds to better duck hunting--why early "pop-up" flooding on harvested fields pulls birds fast, reduces runoff, helps farmers, and sets the table for wintering waterfowl. Real-world habitat tells: timing, field types, and small landowner moves that increase birds almost immediately.

| EP 622. End of an Era: Coastal Texas Snow Goose Hunting (Part 1) | 02 Oct 2025 | 01:10:31 | |
EPISODE 1/3 GETTING STARTED. In a single, recent American generation, Coastal Texas snow goose hunting went from boom to bust--from a fabled hunting experience that drew hunters from around the world to another soon-to-be chapter in history. This 3-part series explores the rise and fall of snow goose hunting on the Katy Prairie--its boom, culture, decline, and lasting legacy. Legendary Texas outfitter Larry Gore--whose high school project became a half-century guiding career-- his son Isaac, to whom he's passed the torch, and Texas waterfowl historian Rob Sawyer, paint a colorful picture that some may remember, but that is forever gone. In today's episode: what'd the Texas landscape and snow goose hunting look like 50 years ago? How'd a kid manage leases, landowners and clients? How'd a high school project become a life calling? Mentors, hardest lessons learned, advice to aspiring young outfitters?

| EP 536. Powered by Inukshuk--And Here's Why | 11 Dec 2024 | 00:50:59 | |
Our beloved retrievers are our ride-and-die best friends, but they're also high-performing athletes with singular life missions to recover downed birds regardless of weather conditions. They deserve the very best nutrition. With an if-you-know-you-know, almost cult-like following among serious US retriever circles, Inukshuk Professional Dog Food is sold directly to consumers and has no ambitions of being widely distributed in big-box retailers. Raised into the business, company president Emily Corey describes Inukshuk Professional Dog Food's humble origins, explaining how and for what purposes their highly digestible, calorie-dense formulas are derived, why Inukshuk is the highest quality dog food available, how their direct-to-consumer model ensures superior freshness, and why a "corporate culture" that keeps them in close, personal contact with customers is win-win-win.

| EP 535. New Brunswick Canada Duck Hunting, Eh? | 09 Dec 2024 | 01:29:37 | |
A month-and-a-half and 11-plus-thousand miles after starting this year's North American Waterfowl Road Trip finally arrives to new territory, to the land-time-forgot (so described for reasons discussed herein) province of New Brunswick, Canada. Joining local go-getter hunters Matt Wilson and Stephen Margison, am immersed neck-deep into Maritime Canada waterfowl hunting culture where distances are described relative to time, where directions are described relative to the St. Johns River, and where daily agendas are relative to Canada geese, black ducks and mallards. It's here that was inspired to conform my chicken-fried recipe to local standard (recipe shared). "Canada duck hunting" may not have evoked thoughts of New Brunswick in the past, but you better believe it will moving forward! Bet that you'll agree, eh?

| EP 534. Moonshine Creek, NB | 05 Dec 2024 | 01:33:19 | |
Breaking a streak of mishaps, happening by accident onto Moonshine Creek Distillery was pure luck. It was maybe even some kind of divine providence. "Well, I've been making it legally for about 6 years," says Jeremiah Brooks in giving us the full run down, explaining how he went from tending bars and improving his understanding of spirits to creating the Canada Whiskey of the Year---plus a bar-top-full assortment of unique flavors reflecting real New Brunswick--just a few short years later. More than a tasty deep-dive into various spirits, the conversation provides an interesting view of Maritime Canada and it's historically blurred-boundary relationship with the US that's located down winding roads a short distance away. Bottoms up!

Born-and-raised Arkansas native Rusty Creasey was manager and head guide at legendary Coca-Cola Woods Duck Club for 20 years, continuing the legacy of his uncle Harvey, who managed the property for the 40 years prior. Recognized for his learned-from-a-lifetime-doing-it expertise, Rusty shares his thoughts on Arkansas flooded timber hunting, thoughtfully covering the topics of growing up in rural Arkansas, life lessons and important influences, a lifetime spent in Coca Cola woods, habitat conditions and management, hunting "local" versus "migrator" mallards, the do-and-don't rules hunting flooded timber effectively, archery hunting green heads, and why for the first time since 1958 there won't be a Creasey family member in the iconic Coca Cola woods this season. Like watching mallards magically spilling over the tree tops and splashing at your feet, it's a memorable conversation.

| EP 525. There's Something About Sandhill Cranes | 11 Nov 2024 | 01:25:11 | |
One of North America's most unique webless gamebirds, sandhill cranes are oftentimes referred to as "ribeyes of the sky" and included among popular waterfowl slam listings. Alabama biologist Courtnay Conring has studied them extensively and hunted them seriously. We do a deep dive into sandhill cranes to include migrating and non-migrating populations, which populations are hunted and protected, differences between greater and lesser sandhill cranes, habitat, diet, habitat conservation, new hunting opportunities, cooking and how-to sandhill crane hunting techniques. Whether collecting groceries, trophies or experiences, most North American waterfowl hunters may likely find themselves chasing sandhill cranes and will appreciate this informative discussion.

| EP 524. On Delivering First-class Hunting Lodge Hospitality | 07 Nov 2024 | 01:09:01 | |
You've traveled far away from home for a dream hunt and--all things equal, some days better than others--waterfowl are a constant. It's the everything else that really makes a huge difference. Which is why on the heels of another epic 3-day waterfowl hunt at Prairie Limits Outfitters, I met with Brian Cramer to gain insight on "controlling the controllables" and delivering superior, made-to-feel-at-home hospitality. Because too few do it as well.

Which is exactly why Chef DJ is among the most popular people at Prairie Limits Outfitters in Saskatchewan, why his specialties are in high demand by returning guests, and why everyone gravitates towards his kitchen throughout the day. Sharing some hallmark recipes along the way, Chef DJ talks about growing up in rural Canada, his interest in cooking, learning to cook for big groups, and how hunting benefits local communities.

What's it like growing up a young, avid waterfowler in the north-of-the-border Land of Plenty? How's it similar to the USA--and how's it different? What might you wish be different, and for what might you be most thankful? In a random turn of events, Ramsey falls in with 3 die-hard, young-gun Manitoba hunters who show him what it's like growing up a goose hunter these days in Canada and share some interesting and downright surprising insights. And to think it all started with a shiny new moped in a gravel parking lot! Really good stuff.

| EP 521. Honker Hunting Manitoba's Interlake Region | 28 Oct 2024 | 01:08:33 | |
Located between massive lakes Winnipeg and Manitoba, the fabled Interlakes Region has been an important stop over for migrating Canada geese since forever--especially for that population of big honkers known locally as "Churchills." The region annually attracts goose hunters like myself that can't seem to get enough of them. Sometimes the stars align and we're even there at the same time. Following an action-packed week and a big ol' celebratory T-bone steak, I meet with Manitoba friends Troy Bennet and Dustin Dola to recount the week's highlights.

| EP 519. Who's Winning the Klamath Water War? | 21 Oct 2024 | 00:51:53 | |
So critical to Pacific Flyway waterfowl was this region that the Lower Klamath NWR was established by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1908 as the first waterfowl refuge in the United States. In the 1950s, more pintails were counted in nearby Tule Lake than exists on earth today, and a surprising amount of Pacific Flyway waterfowl are produced or overwinter here! As reported in EP 154. Understanding the Klamath Water War (link below), times have changed--natural droughts have been exacerbated by "policy drought" and conflicting "single species management" as interests compete over scarce water resources, and waterfowl historically rank last priority. Thanks to win-win collaborative efforts, there may be light at end of the tunnel. Jeff McCreary, Ducks Unlimited's Director of Operations for Western Region, and Jake Messerli, CEO for California Waterfowl Association, provide vital updates, spelling out changes affecting waterfowl, Pacific Flyway hunters, local communities and conservation throughout the United States.

Located in Chambers County, Texas, the Double Bayou community has a storied, oftentimes truth-is-stranger-than-fiction past. It was there that Blake Moulton learned to duck hunt from his father, who was simply passing along the same torch handed him by predecessors. In some ways, things have changed. In other ways they never will. Beneath a sprawling live oak that's shaded Moulton's family for 5 generations, he talks about growing up, the local community, family traditions, and the people that inspired him to be his best at duck hunting and in life.

There's plenty North Dakota waterfowl hunting opportunities for ducks, snows, cacklers, honkers and tundra swans, and depending on what you're chasing the overall season runs late-September (for non-residents) through bone-chilling, mid-December. For those wanting the convenience of an experienced can-do outfitter, nobody does it better than Dirty Bird Outfitters. Now in their 10th season, owner-founder Matthew Piehl and head viking-guide Nick Marcyes describe how a kindred love-hate spirit for white geese--yeah, they chase spring snows in Arkansas and back, too--and an idea scribbled onto a napkin started the whole thing.

| EP 620: Green-Tree Reservoir Habitat Management | 25 Sep 2025 | 01:23:15 | |
Flooded green timber is distinctively the most iconic habitat in the duck hunting world--but unlike making instant coffee, managing green tree reservoirs involves more than just adding water. Way more. Joined by Ryan Askew and Brandon Bennett from Five Oaks, we break down what makes a true GTR, why bottomland hardwoods matter, the right way to flood and draw down, and the growing challenges—tree mortality, desirable red oak regeneration, now-versus-later management preferences—that threaten their future. Packed with history, science, and hard-earned lessons, this episode reveals how hunters and land managers can keep green-tree reservoir habitats thriving for generations.

| EP 516. Meet Texas's First Waterfowl Biologist, Charles Stutzenbaker | 10 Oct 2024 | 01:35:11 | |
As a barefoot little boy playing outside in the late-1930s that later duck hunted when rice predominated the coastal Texas landscape, 90-year-old Charles Stutzenbaker became the first full-time waterfowl biologist for the State of Texas. It was a different world. Plenty work to do. And work he did. Spending many years immersed afield, he became a foremost authority on coastal habitat, authoring definitive books on mottled ducks and wetlands vegetation. He influenced Gulf Coastal habitat conservation and duck hunting as we know it today at state, flyway and national levels; was instrumental in starting early blue-winged teal season and banning lead shot. Mr. Stutzenbaker discusses these topics and more in today's very interesting conversation.

West of San Antonio, where the Chihuahua Desert and Brush County collide it's dry. Real dry. But there exist one of the most unique and best-kept secrets in North America waterfowl hunting. Renowned since forever for world-class muy grande white-tails on vast private ranches, the region also harbors ducks, speckle bellies and sandhill cranes that've long been disregarded by locals and remain relatively unpressured. Enter Speck Ops Waterfowl. Luke Bledsoe and wife, Jillian, describe moving to the area, amassing and covering a hunting area best described as a 500-mile triangle, hunting practically every Central Flyway duck species--to include some real prizes--delivering lodging experiences unlike anywhere else, and their long-term vision. Sounds so good that we make plans to maybe do a couples trip there next year!

Hunting western Nebraska is all about the right stuff--the right properties, the right locations, the right people. There's mallards and geese galore, for sure, but this corner of the Wild West is also crawling with huge mule deer and white-tailed bucks, pronghorn, Merriam's turkeys, and elk. Born and raised nearby, Powder Morning Hunting Company's Coy Fisher describes growing up there; what Sydney, Nebraska was like before, during and since Cabela's; how carbon sequestration is a billion dollar industry out there; putting together and covering over 400,000 acres to include many miles of fabled North Platte River and warm water sloughs; unique waterfowl habitat projects; and delivering great customer experiences. Am headed out there myself early-January 2025 and can't wait.

| EP 511. Making Outdoor Dreams Reality | 23 Sep 2024 | 01:21:57 | |
Grizzly bears, wild sheep, bison, elk, white-tailed bucks, waterfowl--we all have outdoor dreams. But South Carolina-based Outdoor Dream Foundation is making outdoor dreams reality for youths facing some of life's toughest challenges. "It gives them light at the end of the tunnel, something to live for," one of today's guests says. Disappointed that similar foundations were not granting firearms- and hunting-related wishes, they decided to do something about it. ODF members Leroy Martin, Richard Cranes, and Skip Still share some favorite memories of past recipients, proving that the best way to help oneself is to help others. Whether you're a parent or not, you'll appreciate today's heart-felt stories.

| EP 509. All Florida and More | 16 Sep 2024 | 01:40:23 | |
Fifth-generation Florida native Travis Thompson was born-and-raised Florida duck hunting. In the absence of mallards, their mainstays are blue-winged teal, Florida mottled ducks, whistling ducks, and--of course--ring-necked ducks, which are discussed in depth along with local hunting traditions, gators and cattle, where and how ducks are hunted. "But when you're not at the table, you're on the menu," says Thompson, pivoting to the rapid loss of wintering habitat and hunting rights in Florida. Beyond Disney and Miami, an entirely other Florida exists. But for how much longer?

For Larry White, an interest in cooking began as simply as being around grandmother's kitchen, and while he learned a lot of techniques in the military it wasn't until afterwards that a passion for crafting wild game dishes emerged. His interesting takes on carpaccio, prosciutto, wild turkey, wild ham, fish and other favorite spins are discussed, but check out his The Wild Gourmet Blog for more.

| EP 507. The Maggie Williams, Arkansas Public Land Duck Hunter | 09 Sep 2024 | 01:26:11 | |
Raised a 4th-generation northeast Arkansas public land duck hunter, Maggie Williams says the first girl her daddy ever even saw in the woods was the 10 year-old daughter he'd brought along himself. Treated just like one of the boys, the rest was history. A genuine duck hunter--that just happened to be a girl--was born on the spot. Maggie Williams describes growing up hunting Arkansas public dirt, how beauty pageants enabled her insatiable high school duck hunting appetite while teaching valuable life skills, and how the combined effects shaped her life. We get into nitty gritty topics, too, to include a growing hate culture among public land hunters, Arkansas public land hunting ettiquette, coping with public land crowds, the backlash of being a woman hunter, the need for role models, why representation matters, and how people from different walks of life bond through a shared love for duck hunting. And then we get into the whole turkey hunting thing!

Avoiding "the real world" at all costs, he's been a quail guide, duck guide, bird dog trainer to the rich and famous, shooting instructor--for starts--and has a successful crappie jig company called the Little Riddle. He'd rather hunt big water divers or crappie fish from the world's fastest layout boat--and we're talking 102 mph--that he describes in great detail. But here came the real world when, of all things, he made a Tik Tok post about a year ago, insta-famously becoming an overnight celebrity boasting many millions of views of him just naturally just being himself. What a crazy world we live in! Let us know your thoughts and comments below.
