Mike Jensen works for the state of North Dakota.  Mike joins the show to break down North Dakota’s updated 2021 bird counts and their upland bird hunting outlook for this season.  We dig into the roadside counts for pheasants, as well as sharptailed grouse, and Hungarian partridge.  We also talk about the waterfowl numbers across the state and the effects of the drought on the landscape.  Mike explains North Dakota’s new trespass laws and the steps hunters must take this season to stay on the right side of property boundaries.  Plus, Mike shares a few of his sleeper spots in North Dakota and under the radar ruffed grouse hunting haunts.
