## Resource

On this episode of the Migration Waterfowl podcast, Brian sits down with Wisconsin waterfowl hunter and TFS Cable Works owner, Dylan Kletsch. Introduced through a mutual friend, Dylan brings a blue-collar, grassroots perspective to both hunting and building a business in the waterfowl space. Dylan shares his journey into waterfowl hunting in Wisconsin—what it was like getting started, the lessons learned along the way, and how his approach has evolved over time. The conversation dives into his preferred hunting styles, the types of habitat he focuses on, and the species he encounters throughout the season in the upper Midwest. The guys also break down the story behind TFS Cable Works—how it started, what goes into building a brand in the waterfowl industry, and what sets his products apart from the rest.
