In this episode of North American Waterfowler, Elliott recaps the annual Kansas River float trip, including high water conditions, storms, fishing, camping, and the adventures that unfolded along the way.
The main discussion centers around a social media debate sparked by a comment claiming that social media is the worst thing that ever happened to waterfowl hunting and that modern hunters are only chasing likes and clicks. Elliott examines both the positives and negatives of social media, including poor representation of hunters, rage-bait content, community building, mentorship, education, and conservation awareness. He also asks a larger question: Why do people hunt in the first place?
To wrap up the episode, Elliott introduces the new Ask Jobman feature available to Flatlander Kennels Patreon members and answers a listener question about properly introducing gunfire to a young retriever.
