Ep. 653 - Scattered Ashes, Hybrid Ducks, and Bomb Cyclones in the Pacific Flyway

The DU Podcast finally connects with our friends in the West, as Dr. Mike Brasher speaks with Dr. Fritz Reid, Dr. Dan Smith, Kelly Warren, and Kyle Spragens to hear about waterfowl migration, habitat conditions, and hunting stories from the Pacific Flyway. From California to Washington, reports suggest an overall “hit or miss” season, with sporadic success influenced by weather systems that altered habitat conditions and redistributed birds. Our guests also share stories of memorable hunts that included stormy weather, hybrid ducks, scattered ashes, family memories, and a university hunt camp with an Alma Matter. Lastly, fingers are crossed for a shift in the weather to improve hunting prospects as the season draws to a close. Listen now : www.ducks.org/DUPodcast Send feedback : DUPodcast@ducks.org
