EP 387. Mountain View Mallards

The Shoshone River, the world-famous Big Horn River and the Clark’s Fork of the Yellow Stone River make northeast Wyoming special. Especially when it comes to chasing fat greenheads and honkers–and what a view! Noah Miller talks about growing up, hunting experiences, what lead him into guiding waterfowl, and why duck hunting this out-of-the-way corner of Wyoming is unique.

EP 386. The Outlaw Gunner’s Son

“He wasn’t just telling history and collecting stuff. He was writing about a lot of people he grew up with, collecting many things he’d actually used or heard about during boyhood,” says Joe Walsh of his father, Dr. Harry Walsh that authored the landmark book, Outlaw Gunner. Covering some market hunting tools-of-the-trade and old-ways practices while speculating when the last punt guns were likely fired on the Chesapeake Bay–because some old habits died hard–gives way to stories about who Joe’s dad was a duck hunter, father, historian and stalwart conservationist.

 

“Earth, our home, sits like. jewel in the center of infinity. Ours is the only planet capable of sustaining life as we know it. We share a common environment with other members of the animal kingdom. We hunters must contribute to our own sport and to the preservation of these beautiful birds.” Dr. Harry Walsh, c. 1968

EP 384. The Eider Godfather

Eight-two year-young Phil Stanton cut his teenaged duck hunting teeth hunting among salty, yesteryear watermen that braved Massachusetts’s rocky coast for seaducks, quandy and coots, as they were colloquially referred. Eider ducks have predominated his entire life since. His incredibly colorful then-versus-now stories about eiders, hunters, techniques and gear; about oil-spill rehabilitation attempts; and about pioneering new eider breeding colonies leaves little doubt that he is, indeed, the Eider Godfather.

EP 382. Cooking Up Real Conservation in Cordoba, Argentina

When you come to a fork in the road, take it. Today’s conversation proves the point. John Odell was Arizona’s Migratory Game Bird Coordinator when, 20 years into his career, he abruptly moved to Buenos Aires to pursue culinary arts. But he’s now cooking up way more than “meat over fire!” While many people–myself included–have believed that overharvest inevitably resulted in the near-total collapse of Cordaba’s formerly immense eared dove population, Odell thinks otherwise. He’s now setting the table for a comeback, explaining his long-term recipe for meaningful conservation in today’s episode.



EP 381. As Viewed Through the Lens

Justin Mueller grew up on a central Minnesota dairy farm and recalls the time his mother broke out a map to figure out where his first videography assignment was taking him (in Iowa). He’s since seen lots of hunting world through the lens! Following a couple weeks working together, Ramsey meets with Mueller to hear how Argentina as viewed through a camera lens compared to his own over-the-shotgun view.



EP 380. Duck Hunting Argentina’s Wild, Remote Parana River Delta

Argentina’s Parana River Delta is second only to the Amazon River in size. But as viewed from a floating duck camp located tens of miles from even the nearest dirt road, you’d hardly know the difference–wild, unspoiled marsh stretching to the horizon in all directions. And ducks. Lots of them. Accessing such remoteness requires an hour-and-a-half boat ride, but accommodations, services and hospitality are far from spartan. To the contrary. Immersed in the middle of nowhere, world-class duck hunting is just minutes away. Those that crave wild ducks in truly wild places will appreciate hearing about this new adventure destined to become absolute legend.



EP 379. Argentina Duck-Dove-Pigeon-Dorado Combo Couples Trip

We 5 hunters brought our non-hunting spouses along, too. Fun-filled vacation for everyone? Tune in to hear how you really can have your cake and eat it too!
