  • Privileged Private Land Hunters Who Think They Know The Rules That Need to Govern the Public Hunter

    A few of the guest are good to listen to their aspect to the struggles of Arkansas duck hunting. I feel like these private land hunters want to set rules for the public land hunters at their own benefit. If you wanna listen to your public land issues this is not your podcast.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Danny Fulton-The Fulton Farm
Q: What is the guest's biggest piece of advice for someone in a lesser flyway trying to improve duck hunting on a private property?
Control water where possible, start small with wells and basic flood infrastructure, and focus on diversity of habitat rather than chasing a single food source, while observing and learning from the land and local ducks to avoid unnecessary disturbances.
John Adams, Natural Gear
Q: How does a brand like Natural Gear get its foot in the door when there are official camo patterns tied to major organizations?
It's not simply about money; it requires working within each organization's structure, using their channels (like Arkansas Ducks Unlimited) and offering value through banquets and targeted promotions, while maintaining authentic alignment with conservation goals.
Dustin Roddy, Cache River Farms
Q: What methods can be used to balance agricultural practices and waterfowl habitat?
Dustin suggested leaving crops standing for ducks and considering the timing of water floods to improve habitat.
AGFC Commissioners Talking Turkey Zones, Pressure on Ducks and WMA Overcrowding
Q: Are you guys considering limiting non-resident licenses or doing a draw system?
All options are on the table; however, limiting access is the last resort we want to pursue, focusing on more collaborative management of hunting opportunities.
AGFC Commissioners Talking Turkey Zones, Pressure on Ducks and WMA Overcrowding
Q: What is the commission thinking in regard to some of what the other states are doing and what some people are asking for regarding non-resident hunters?
The commission acknowledges the increasing pressure from non-resident hunters and discusses the implementation of restrictions and regulations for better management of wildlife activities.
