Shownotes

Mario is joined by long time friend Paul Wait, the Senior Communications Manager at Delta Waterfowl. This is one of the best breakdowns of the duck numbers in all my time of seeing them every year. Paul talks about how technology has made counting ducks more efficient and more accurate. We talk about going to a 3 Pintail limit this year and how we are in a good place for this. Lots of myths and incorrect information is put aside with this podcast. Lots to learn on this one, worth the listen.
