Ducks. Food. Hunting. More food. Friendships. Family. Traditions. And open doors. That's what cajun hospitality is all about. Big John Hebert and I wrap a 3- or 4-day duck hunting tour of his homeland with a conversation covering all of it---the local lay of the land, a never quit mentality but why marsh hunting is a young man's game, the perfect gumbo trio to include his dad's famous "grassy gumbo," sweet potato versus potato salad sides, making family-recipe hoghead cheese, labeling ducks simply as "northerns", why naming blue-winged teal "god's birds" fits local culture, local call makers and early influences, and how some things have changed--but some things never, ever will--and more. Not in this part of the world. C'est bon!
