| 5/4/26 | ![]() Ep. 133 – Minnesota’s Living Lakes Program – Jake Chronister – Bring Back the Ducks | Minnesota has seen substantial challenges in keeping wetlands and grass on the landscape for ducks. With this, duck numbers and duck hunter numbers have plummeted. The Living Lake Initiative restores and protects wetlands and shallow lakes in Minnesota and Iowa, focusing on enhancing water quality and habitat for waterfowl in the Prairie Pothole Region. We meet with Jake Chronister of the Living Lakes Initiative to learn more. | — | ||||||

Whether you didn’t get your birds and your season is closed, you are in mid-battle with a bird you just can’t kill, or you are dreaming of those misty woods, just getting green to hear your first gobble of the season, this is your episode. Join us for turkey time tactics. | — | ||||||
