It’s the first weekend of Game Fair, and top topics on Outdoor News Radio this week include a discussion with Managing Editor Rob Drieslein and Editor Tim Spielman on the proposed walleye limit changes and a federal report on how the state is managing its forests. Then Nate Huck, Minnesota DNR migratory gamebird consultant, offers his take on waterfowl populations in the state. Scott Anderson, the nontraditional fund-raising and promotions director from Ducks Unlimited, then offers his take on duck habitat and previews the group’s online National Trip Auction, which kicks off on Thursday, August 14. Tim Lesmeister and Drieslein wrap up the show with chatter on a multitude of topics including Mark Johnson’s impending retirement from the Lessard-Sams Outdoor Heritage Council, and that black bear kicking around Wisconsin with a plastic bucket on its head.
