Top topics on Outdoor News Radio this week include a discussion with Managing Editor Rob Drieslein and Editor Tim Spielman on how swimmer’s itch has created wrath toward common mergansers on some western Minnesota lakes. Then Charlotte Roy from the Minnesota DNR joins the program to break down the pretty good forecast for ruffed grouse hunting in Minnesota this fall. Josh Ahlberg, sales and marketing director from Outdoor News, jumps in to give listeners a first-hand report from last week’s ICAST angling trade show down in Orlando, Florida. Tim Lesmeister and Drieslein wrap up the show with chatter on whether or not the western “corner crossing” case will qualify for review by the U.S. Supreme Court and what Coca-Cola buying more cane sugar might mean for corn growers, set-aside programs, and pheasant habitat.
