Episode Details

This series highlights the highs and lows of hunting public land across different regions of America — the early mornings, the pressure, the competition, and the grind that comes with earning every bird.

In this episode, Jeff Stanfield and Andy Shaver are joined by Nathan Peterson from Washington.

The guys discuss the outstanding waterfowl hunting opportunities in Washington, from flooded agricultural fields and river systems to the coastal bays that attract a wide variety of migratory birds. Nathan shares stories from unforgettable days chasing greenhead mallards during peak migration, when wave after wave of ducks poured into the region.

They also dive into the unique challenge of hunting sea ducks along the coast, the massive numbers of American wigeon that winter in Washington each year, and what makes the Pacific Flyway such a special destination for duck hunters.

Nathan also shares stories from his years in the field, including a harrowing experience on public land where he found himself forced to intervene in a life-or-death situation.
