Description

Duck season is right around the corner, and if you’ve got any influence over your hunting ground, this episode is packed with strategies to help you hold more birds. We sit down with Mike Flaspohler, a retired wildlife biologist from the Missouri Department of Conservation, where he oversaw premier waterfowl habitat at Grand Pass, Four Rivers, and Ted Shanks Conservation Areas.

Joining the conversation is his son, Kale, the brains behind the Waterfowl Management Academy platform.

The Flaspohlers break down practical, science-driven wetland management tactics for this fall and explain how their platform delivers knowledge through an ever-growing library of videos and interactive sessions.

If you’re asking yourself what should be on the habitat to-do list between now and opening day, this episode has the answers.
