In this episode of North American Waterfowler, Elliott recaps the annual Kansas River float trip, including high water conditions, storms, fishing, camping, and the adventures that unfolded along the way.

He also asks a larger question: Why do people hunt in the first place? To wrap up the episode, Elliott introduces the new Ask Jobman feature available to Flatlander Kennels Patreon…
