Saying that museums tell stories, Chesapeake Bay historian and preservationist, C. John Sullivan, takes us on a personal tour of one of the largest private collections amassed, where each artifact represents one of the most storied time periods in American waterfowling history. After a brief visit--where I actually shouldered a 22-pound, 4-gauge, side-by-side blackpowder shotgun--we talk about giant guns, specialized hunting tools, market hunter techniques, wooden decoys, famous carvers, and a completely bygone, but not yet forgotten, way of life on the fabled Chesapeake Bay.

"Almost Heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River," go the John Denver lyrics. The iconic song never mentions ducks or duck hunting. For good reason. Because they're few and far between, but not impossible. State 48 was a huge, successful adventure thanks to friend Mike Smith. Following a couple eventful days duck hunting West Virginia, we crack open a couple Busch Lights, recall the weeks events, talk about his growing up and duck hunting in this off-the-beaten-flyway part of Appalachia.

Rob Shaw's ancestors moved to Prince Edward Island 5 generations ago. They've since made their livings and fed their families by seasonally availing themselves of the island's inherently abundant natural resources--namely tourists, ducks and seafood. A memorable pair black duck used as live decoys are recalled among many other things. Island life still revolves these resources, black ducks are a real big deal, and in hearing Rob recall lifetime events here you gain the sense of a real tightly-knit community that's uncommonly found elsewhere.

This season's 6-province Canadian part if the tour terminates 8 miles into the Atlantic--as easterly as personally ever been in North America--on the picturesque Prince Edward Island where my host, Geoff "Woody" Wood welcomes me with fresh Malpeque oysters and kicks things off with as traditional island-style decoys as it gets. Following a couple days memorable black duck hunts and eats, and with a nor'easter blowing outside, we talk about Prince Edward Island duck hunting, species, techniques, food, habitat changes and more.

Our beloved retrievers are our ride-and-die best friends, but they're also high-performing athletes with singular life missions to recover downed birds regardless of weather conditions. They deserve the very best nutrition. With an if-you-know-you-know, almost cult-like following among serious US retriever circles, Inukshuk Professional Dog Food is sold directly to consumers and has no ambitions of being widely distributed in big-box retailers. Raised into the business, company president Emily Corey describes Inukshuk Professional Dog Food's humble origins, explaining how and for what purposes their highly digestible, calorie-dense formulas are derived, why Inukshuk is the highest quality dog food available, how their direct-to-consumer model ensures superior freshness, and why a "corporate culture" that keeps them in close, personal contact with customers is win-win-win.

A month-and-a-half and 11-plus-thousand miles after starting this year's North American Waterfowl Road Trip finally arrives to new territory, to the land-time-forgot (so described for reasons discussed herein) province of New Brunswick, Canada. Joining local go-getter hunters Matt Wilson and Stephen Margison, am immersed neck-deep into Maritime Canada waterfowl hunting culture where distances are described relative to time, where directions are described relative to the St. Johns River, and where daily agendas are relative to Canada geese, black ducks and mallards. It's here that was inspired to conform my chicken-fried recipe to local standard (recipe shared). "Canada duck hunting" may not have evoked thoughts of New Brunswick in the past, but you better believe it will moving forward! Bet that you'll agree, eh?

Breaking a streak of mishaps, happening by accident onto Moonshine Creek Distillery was pure luck. It was maybe even some kind of divine providence. "Well, I've been making it legally for about 6 years," says Jeremiah Brooks in giving us the full run down, explaining how he went from tending bars and improving his understanding of spirits to creating the Canada Whiskey of the Year---plus a bar-top-full assortment of unique flavors reflecting real New Brunswick--just a few short years later. More than a tasty deep-dive into various spirits, the conversation provides an interesting view of Maritime Canada and it's historically blurred-boundary relationship with the US that's located down winding roads a short distance away. Bottoms up!
