For some it was the season of the storm, for others the best season they can remember, others the worst season ever, the winter that has not yet happened. The 3rd year of the FowlWeather Podcast brought us a welcome calming of the fake news by other podcasts, drought but ducks for many, and the corn conversation came to a head. We also recognized once again that weather plays a major role in duck migration timing and the later-season Duck Shuffle, plus that telemetry doesn’t tell us everything. Today we dissect these hot topics for the year and analyze how well long-term duck migration forecast played out throughout Duck Country.
In the boot room of camp, Chris Beckman (Beckman Game Calls) and Forrest Carvajal (Pond Creek Duck Calls) talk finding honey holes, social media monsters and heros, BPOP changes, weather, flooded corn, and more, plus your last duck migration forecast of the season – did the ducks move?
