Episode 79 Featuring Mike Callian, Dave Smith and Eric White---A Waterfowl Primer
Fall is my favorite time of year. In this episode of Fin and Fire With Jeff Mishler, I mash-up my favorite moments from the waterfowl hunting shows because, it's duck season, and I'm going duck hunting. Mike Callian and Dave Smith of Dave Smith Decoys and shooting instructor Eric White cover some critical elements in the process of calling and shooting waterfowl.
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-your pants 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.
