About this episode
Brain Huber is California Waterfowl Association's Waterfowl and Wood Duck Program Coordinator. Late one afternoon, he and I meet across the table at his hunting camp for a mid-blowing discussion about California waterfowl hunting and management, and to plan the next morning's wood duck hunt. Why are California's daily dark goose limits so much higher than in most other parts of the US? What CWA program has produced nearly a million wood ducks since implementation, and to whom does much credit go for its success? What incredible percentage of California's annual mallard harvest are produced in California (I was shocked to learn it), and what other species are produced here? What programs mitigate egg and nest losses in California's vast agricultural landscape? How'd Huber get into this challenging field and what advice does he have for anyone wanting to be a waterfowl biologist? Great things don't happen by accident. This episode is a great behind-the-scenes glimpse of people and events that make California duck hunting happen.
