Challenges of Hunting Highly Educated Birds: Chico State

Join us in this exciting episode of the Campus Waterfowl Podcast as we dive deep into the world of duck hunting with the Chico State University Ducks Unlimited team. Host Andy Smith, alongside guests Will Burton, Ricky Pringle, and MacKenzie Anderson, share their invaluable experiences and tips on duck hunting, decoy strategies, and conservation efforts.
In this podcast, we explore various aspects of duck hunting, including the challenges of hunting highly educated birds, the effectiveness of different decoys (full bodies vs. rags/socks), and the importance of adapting hunting strategies to weather conditions. The team also discusses the role of Ducks Unlimited in conservation and how they've seen the organization impact their local hunting areas.
Additionally, we get a glimpse into the personal hunting journeys of our guests, their involvement with Ducks Unlimited at Chico State, and how they balance their passion for hunting with their academic pursuits. The discussion also covers the unique aspects of hunting in Northern California, the impact of urbanization on waterfowl habitats, and the camaraderie and community among hunters.
Whether you're a seasoned hunter or new to the sport, this podcast is packed with insights and stories that will enrich your understanding and appreciation of duck hunting. Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe for more content like this!

One of the slowest seasons I’ve witnessed in some time now. Not the cold weather up north we expected. With only a few weeks left in the California waterfowl season definitely hope to make the most of it with weather finally moving in. Gotta work our butts off these next few weeks to really tie this season off nicely. Definitely hoping for some earlier weather next year. But hey could be worse, Mr Galvin himself definitely doesn’t make it any easier to be a duck hunter these days. Keep chasin em yall! love the show!! 🤙🏼🦆
