Podcasts about duck season

On this episode of the Great Outdoors with Don Dubuc, we celebrate the opening day of duck hunting season. We check on some sportsman out in the marshes looking for birds, briefly check in on the menhaden news, and spread awareness for deer stand maintenance.

Join me as I break down the essentials of prepping for duck season. From selecting the right gear, getting in the "right" state of mind, to mastering your tactics, I'll share the tips and tricks you need to hit the water fully prepared and make this season your best one yet!

Send us a textThe grind behind a flawless camo finish is real, and we're finally ready to show you why our GORE™ OPTIFADE™ Marsh and Timber camouflage patterns boats look the way you always wanted them to. We share how scaling stencils to a full hull changes everything, why color tuning on big surfaces is brutal, and what it took to make a factory paint job that actually matches your Sitka kit. If you've been settling for solid colors because patterned boats never lined up, that compromise ends here—Marsh is right behind Timber for those open-water and coastal hunts.We also pull back the curtain on a tight, 100-piece run of custom RNT Mondo calls. Clean bone colorway, crisp branding, and the kind of exclusivity collectors hunt down all year. These calls drew a crowd even during the build, and we've got fun twists planned around serial numbers, giveaways, and how to snag one before they disappear. Think heirloom gear you'll still be proud of a decade from now, whether it lives on your lanyard or your shelf.Safety isn't an afterthought. Our new life jackets match your camo and fit like something you won't rip off mid-run. Once you dial the straps, they stay put, go on without twists, and use an auto-inflate trigger you can trust. At $239.99, you get real comfort, solid construction, and a look that blends with your boat instead of clashing. We round things out with rugged bag boards built for camp life, plus fresh hats, hoodies, and shirts hitting the gear shop. Inventory moves fast, so keep your eyes on the drop.Want the details first, the giveaways, and the limited releases? Follow along, subscribe, and leave a review to tell us which piece you're chasing next. Your feedback decides what we build next—come be part of it.

On this episode we are coming to yall while right in the middle of getting everything prepped for 25-26 waterfowl season. Brush is getting cut, pumps are being cut on and the temps are dropping, its the best time of the year. With that being said we are approaching the 2nd annual Bogota youth coon hunt. Last year was a big success and we hope this year is even better. Please come out November 14th to the No Limit Cafe at 5:30. We hope to see you there and enjoy this episode!

After a lengthy off-season, duck season is cracking open up north and knocking on the door down south. Reports out of Canada and the Dakotas are all over the map—mallards are spotty up there, but a few are finally filtering into Arkansas and beyond. Brent and Cason dive into what's shaping the season ahead: mounting pressure on ducks that goes deeper than the gun, the idea of smaller limits for better hunts, and the “midpoint theory” that just happens to line up with this week. They wrap it all up the only way they know how—talking ducks, dirt, and a little SEC football chaos.>>Thanks to our sponsors: Tom Beckbe, Lile Real Estate, Perfect Limit Outdoors, Purina Pro Plan, Sitka Gear, Greenhead: The Arkansas Duck Hunting Magazine, Diamond M Land Development, and Ducks Unlimited.The Standard Sportsman Duck Hunting PodcastSend us a textAll Rights Reserved.

On this episode of the Migration Waterfowl podcast, your host Brian Halbleib talks with Elliott Snider, host of the Freelance Duck Hunting Youtube channel and the North American Waterfowler Podcast. They discuss a wide range of topics from the recent Super Bowl outcome and its impact on fans, to a comprehensive wrap-up of the waterfowl hunting season. They reflect on their waterfowl season experiences, satisfaction levels, and their observations of the migration. They also talk about the influence of AI and misinformation in today's society. They look ahead to the upcoming hunting season and plans for future adventures. They talk about various aspects of this past waterfowl hunting season, including the impulsive decisions made regarding days off work for hunting, the differences between duck and goose hunting, and the anticipation of the snow goose season. They discuss the complexities of non-resident hunting regulations in Kansas and the impact of non-residents on local hunting experiences. The discussion also touches on the ethics of hunting in the age of social media, the importance of mentorship for young hunters, and enhancements to the North American Waterfowler app. Elliott also emphasizes the mental health benefits of having projects and hobbies related to hunting. Takeaways: The Super Bowl outcome was disappointing but part of a successful era for the Chiefs. Satisfaction levels in waterfowl hunting can be influenced by experiences beyond just the number of birds harvested. Hunting with family can enhance the overall experience and lead to memorable moments. Migration patterns can vary significantly from year to year based on weather conditions. Misinformation is rampant in today's media landscape, making it difficult to discern truth. AI has the potential to change lives, but it also raises ethical concerns about privacy and control. The emotional highs of hunting are often amplified by the lows experienced beforehand. Planning and scouting are crucial for successful hunting trips, especially in challenging conditions. The cultural significance of waterfowl hunting is changing, leading to frustration among hunters. Looking ahead, maintaining a consistent hunting schedule can lead to continued enjoyment and success. Taking impulsive days off for hunting can lead to mixed feelings. Duck hunting holds a special place for many hunters. Snow goose hunting can be a fun but labor-intensive experience. Non-resident hunting regulations are a contentious issue in Kansas. The influx of non-residents can impact local hunting dynamics. Social media presence is crucial for promoting ethical hunting. Mentorship is vital for the next generation of hunters. The North American Waterfowler app is evolving to enhance user experience. Projects related to hunting can improve mental health. Building relationships through hunting enriches the experience.   Feel free to reach out to us: migrationwaterfowl@gmail.com Facebook, Instagram & YouTube: @migrationwaterfowl Migration Waterfowl Store https://tinyurl.com/MigrationWaterfowlStore This episode is brought to you by:   Blue Bird Waterfowl https://bluebirdwaterfowl.com   The Duck Hole & Company https://m.facebook.com/duckholecompany   Golden Millet Seed https://www.goldenmilletseed.com   CK Custom Calls https://m.facebook.com/100088485616501/   Learn more about your ad choices.
