Brandon manages the hunt by reservation program for ODFW.  If you are interested in accessing new areas previously restricted as private lands in Oregon, this episode of Fin and Fire with Jeff Mishler, Brandon and I discuss the implementation of a software program that simplifies the process of reserving hunting opportunities in our state, the growth of the program, and it's future.  We also talk turkey hunting. Go figure.

About Jeff Mishler

Jeff Mishler is a fifth generation Oregonian who's life work is hard to quantify. Father, writer, photographer, television commercial director, environmentalist, video producer/distributor, website manager, hunter, angler and lifelong recreationist who lives a fly-by-the-seat-of-yourpants mantra. If he’s not in his office writing another essay or developing a show concept, he’s chasing mallards and pheasants with his lab Hailey, running his jet sled up a local river to a sweet steelhead run, setting up on a screaming bull elk with bow in hand or conspiring with his small circle of equally affected steelhead bums while downing healthy portions of really good Oregon beer.
