E511 - 80 Years Strong: California Waterfowl’s Fight for the Future

California Waterfowl Association just marked their 80th anniversary, and Chad sat down with Chadd Santerre and Kevin Vella to talk about what that really means for hunters and the future of waterfowl in the Golden State. With orchards pushing into the valley and development at an all-time high, protecting ground for birds has never been tougher or more important. The guys break down how land is secured for good, why it matters to every hunter pulling on waders at 4 a.m., and how CWA’s hunt program opens doors no matter where you live. Did you know you don't have to be a California resident!? This one gets into the guts of conservation and the hard truth about what it takes to keep birds and hunters thriving in a state that never stops changing.
