EP 411. Pacific Flyway Glory Days

The oldest waterfowl decoys on earth were discovered in the Pacific Flyway. There are century-plus-years-old hunting clubs, and pit blind hunting may have even originated there. Bull hunting was borrowed from a traditional Mexican trick of the trade for filling up the commercial meat wagon quickly—all those gold rushers had to eat after all. Then came the goose patrols. Former US presidents broke personal records. Hollywood A-listers and famous athletes, business people from far and wide, market hunters and market-hunters-turned-professional-guides, friends and neighbors — all flocked to  Pacific Flyway wetlands in pursuit of waterfowl. Waterfowl hunting led Yancey Forest-Knowles and Wayne Capooth to individually research waterfowling's storied past such that they became foremost authorities. Today they treat listeners to a rare glimpse into the Pacific Flyway's dramatic waterfowling history.    Related: Yancey Forest-Knowles and Wayne Capooth newest collaboration is "The Pacific Flyway: Historic Waterfowling Images." They provide contact information in today's episode.   Podcast Sponsors:   MOJO Outdoors https://www.mojooutdoors.com/p Benelli Shotguns https://www.benelliusa.com/shotguns/waterfowl-shotguns BOSS Shotshells https://bossshotshells.com/ Ducks Unlimited https://www.ducks.org Flash Back Decoys https://www.duckcreekdecoys.com/ HuntProof Premium Waterfowl App  https://huntproof.app Tetra Hearing https://tetrahearing.com/ Tom Beckbe https://tombeckbe.com/ Voormi https://voormi.com/ GetDucks.com USHuntList.com     It really is duck season somewhere for 365 days per year.
