WATERFOWL HUNTING
I don't think there are a more dedicated group of hunters than waterfowlers! 

Indeed, most importantly (and impressively), they are leaders in wildlife conservation, and participate within this concept wholeheartedly. They are quick to volunteer their time, which is often very valuable time, AND - they contribute MILLIONS OF DOLLARS - ANNUALLY - to be sure that their fowlish friends are cared for. 

As well, we are a tough lot. Who else can sit, hunkered down in often sad and inhumane postures, through torrential rainfall, or savage and intense incessant winds/blowing snow/sleet, AND THINK ITS -FUN FUN FUN 

Who else visits the marsh, and sees all it's wild denizens - their sounds - their smells - their activities - and needs - then responds to them with humane compassion. 

We are part of this rich wild heritage,and participate as part of the whole wetland scene, and participants.

Too, we are partners in our predator prey relationship. but as humans, in a humane way, and using our human thinking\reasoning, caring/compassionate methodology, to be sure that our prey and non-prey partners in this life quest are also perpetual benefactors in this 'sustainable' partnership. 

People are the only predators with a conscience! This is truly a win - win - win situation. 

  • The waterfowl wins 
  • all other wetlands creatures win 
  • and people win - because we not only receive the enjoyment from this precious natural resource, perpetually, but the whole of people-kind benefit from the conservation exercise where water holding, oxygen producing, and natural eco-systems are nurtured and held pristine.

    Here is a brief look at some of our wild brethren ... from a hunter's point of view. 

    If you are interested in more detail than found here in the write-up below, I would urge you to go to the product section of this homepage, and consider purchasing my PRO REPORT on 'How To' Create & Maintain Waterfowl 'Hot Spots'. This report tells you how to create and enhance waterfowling areas to produce great shooting - on a shoestring, and easily attainable methods by most waterfowlers. 

    As well, I have, on each of the denizens listed here 'PRO FACTSHEETS' which are condensed easy-to-read information sheets on each particular species/subject. These PRO FACT SHEETS are usually between three to five pages long, and offer basic 'need-to-know' information on that given subject. They are modestly priced. 

    But for now ... lets get started with some wetland goodies ...
