An Open Letter to the FWC Commissioners
Commissioners, I wanted to reach out to your prior to this week’s Commission meetings in Panama City Beach. I wish I could be there. I tried. I pushed hard. I’ve been to the past 4-5 meetings, but, as a full-time waterfowl guide, this one was tough to pull off. See, I have a client flying in to hunt the day of the meetings from out of state. This gentleman has harvested 42 species of waterfowl, and only needs the Florida mottled duck to complete his slam. We’ve planned the hunt since June. If everything goes according to plan, there will be a celebration in a Central Florida Swamp Tuesday morning,…

Bacon Wrapped Dove
Anything wrapped in bacon is good, right? The answer is a resounding “YES,” but especially when it comes to dove. I’m willing to bet that most doves killed in the US get made into some form of jalapeno popper (not that there is anything wrong with that), but these little birds are so good in so many different ways! This recipe is how I cooked the last doves I had, and they were excellent! Add some butter, Worcestershire sauce, and a little seasoning and you have yourself the makings of a great meal! Prep Time: 10 min Cook Time: 20-30 min Oven Temp: 350 Ingredients: 6-8 dove breasts 3-4 strips…

Why Misses Matter
Throughout duck season, we’ll attempt to keep you abreast of what we’re thinking, Monday Morning Quarterback-style, just with less football and more waterfowl There was a time when Will didn’t want to hunt. He was slight of build, which was tough to sort out with gun sizing, to say nothing of recoil in the way it related to the featherlight guns he could handle. The first duck he ever shot, a pin-feathered bluebill that graces our living room wall, was followed by tears, due in large part to his first experience with #4 steel shot against his shoulder. I wasn’t sure he’d ever come around on it. It’s a tough…
