Duck Season SomewhereAbout this episode
Moist-soil habitat management involves lots of moving pieces, making it too easy to focus on one aspect and lose sight of the entire playing field. Kevin Nelms returns to break down the art and science--from ground-zero planning and mindset shifts to water manipulation, plant succession, and building a legacy for future generations of hunters--and ducks. Whether you're restoring an old field or fine-tuning established wetlands, this insightful discussion toes decades of expertise into a clear, actionable blueprint for putting it all together.
