Kodiak: A North American Waterfowl Film

Спорт

BOSS Shotshells Presents:
Kodiak Island may be the best place in the world to hunt ducks. Come along as we take you on our bucket list journey to the waterfowling mecca in Alaska.
In December 2022, Bret and Dan Amundson made a bucket-list trip with Mark Smith from the Association of Great Lakes Outdoor Writers. The goal was to hunt trophy sea ducks like harlequins, long tails and Barrow's goldeneyes, but we hoped to find scoters too. But that wasn't all.
We wanted to learn about sea ducks. Why isn't there more research done to learn about their migration patterns, nesting success rates and more? We'll track down a biologist while we're there.
We're not using a guide service, instead we're hunting with a couple of brothers who grew up on Kodiak Island and love to live off the land.
This isn't just a duck hunt. It's a Kodiak Island experience. Come along for the ride.
Special thanks to Sitka and Beretta.
With additional support by Alclair Outdoors and High Prairie Animal Arts.

    Thank you for sharing, all I could think of duck and bean soup, beautiful memories growing up, watching mom and aunts plucking them in large tubs of water. What a feast. Enjoyed the video!

    Worth the wait...buried the lede! Longtails at 50 minutes were worth the trip! Good job fellas....Alaska, as Muir said, should not be visited as a young man (Dan) lest you never be satisfied by any other place. Wonderful job!

    Barrows Goldeneye don’t count as sea ducks for bag limit. You are not limited to 4 like harlequin, longtail scoters etc. bufflehead and goldeneye fall under puddle duck limits.

    We brought birds back for the wall, and why not try and eat a few as well? It was interesting learning how some Alaska natives prepare these birds and then trying them out for ourselves. Cook one up if you ever get the chance to go!
