This week on the Midwest Flyways Podcast, Cal and Joey are getting the next generation into duck hunting.
Cal shares what it was like taking his two-and-a-half-year-old daughter on her first hunt, where she became way more interested in the ducks than the geese, sang her ABCs with birds overhead, and left with a brand-new pink coat covered in blood.
Joey also took his kids out together for the first time on the water, which meant muddy falls, donuts, boat rides, one mallard, and plenty of chaos along the way. Despite the challenges, both hunts were a good reminder that introducing kids to waterfowl hunting looks a lot different than chasing limits.
The guys also talk about the late-October trickle of ducks, upcoming diver hunts, and jump into another round of Say What?!
Topics Covered:
•Taking kids duck hunting
•Cal's daughter's first hunt
•Hunting with multiple young kids
•Keeping kids entertained in the blind
•Late-October duck movement
