## Resource

This week on the Midwest Flyways Podcast, the crew shares some of the dumbest, sketchiest, and most questionable decisions they've ever made in an effort to save a hunt. From dead boat batteries and disappearing decoy spreads to flooded boats, forgotten gear, and wading way deeper than they should have, the guys relive some of their most memorable hunting disasters—and the creative solutions that somehow turned bad situations into successful hunts. The conversation also takes a turn into a series of waterfowl-themed "Would You Rather" questions. Would you rather hunt public land forever or have one perfect private property? Hunt alone and limit every time, or hunt with your best buddies and never shoot another limit? The answers might surprise you. To wrap things up, the crew battles through another round of Say What?, covering pintails, mergansers, swans, sea ducks, waterfowl history, and some surprisingly difficult trivia questions. Topics Covered: The dumbest things we've done to save a hunt Boat failures and hunting mishaps Lost decoys and flooded boats Forgotten guns, shells, and waders Waterfowl hunting "Would You Rather" Public land vs. private land hunting Hunting alone vs. hunting with friends Pintail, merganser, and sea duck trivia Another round of Say What?
