Inside the Wisconsin Waterfowl Hunters Expo | Brad Heidel

Brad Heidel, executive director of the Wisconsin Waterfowl Association, joins the UpDuck Podcast to preview the 2026 Waterfowl Hunters Expo and explain how WWA supports Wisconsin ducks and duck hunters.

Brad shares his path through the conservation industry, the three pillars guiding WWA's work and what hunters can expect at this year's expo—including retriever demonstrations, calling contests, firearms you can try before buying, seminars, youth activities, vendors and wild-game cooking.
