DISCOVERING EPISODE 100 - YCC, Snapper Trapping & Bird Season Preview


Subscribe:


Episode 100 - I wanted to do something different for tonight but I have too many stories in the bucket I need to share before the fall hunting seasons begin! First we learn about the Youth Conservation Corps, a summer work experience for teens in the Ottawa National Forest. Then we go snapper trapping to make turtle chowder. And bird season is less than a week away so I have a grouse and woodcock preview from the Michigan DNR.
