    The Punisher Waterfowl Podcast Ep.282 The Stories We Never Tell

    A brutally honest, funny, and surprisingly thoughtful episode about hunting, friendship, and the stories people usually don’t tell on mic. Damien and Craig get loose on everything from epic hunting blunders to why the best part of waterfowling might be the people it brings into your life. They start with behind-the-scenes chaos most listeners never hear, including voiceover mishaps, last-minute schedule changes, and the massive amount of work involved in preparing for the National Retriever Championship. The conversation then takes a deeper turn as they discuss online negativity, keyboard courage, misinformation, and whether the waterfowl community could make a real difference by focusing more on positive stories. They also dig into hunting regulations, border-crossing requirements for traveling with dogs, and why even conservation officers can’t possibly know every rule, species, and exception off the top of their heads. Then comes the storytelling fans love most. Craig shares some unforgettable hunting disasters, including the story behind his legendary “Triple Threat” nickname, while Damien tells a field story that proves every hunter eventually has a day they’d rather forget. Along the way, they talk about the unexpected friendships created through hunting, podcasting, fundraising events, and simply making the effort to show up for people. This episode is a reminder that waterfowling is about far more than birds and gear. It’s about the laughs, the embarrassing moments, the shared experiences, and the genuine relationships that keep people coming back. Perfect for waterfowl hunters, retriever fans, and anyone who enjoys a good story told by people who actually lived it. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen.

    The Punisher Waterfowl Podcast Ep. 281 Why do we put out so much negativity?

    Crane hunts, gear obsession, and the truth about what really makes a waterfowler tick. Damien, Phil, and Craig get blunt about Ontario’s new Sandhill crane season, the social media backlash around regulations, and why so many hunters react before they actually read the rules. The conversation gets real fast: Is the outrage about conservation, or is it just the internet doing what it does best? The guys break down why the crane hunt is limited to specific northern WMUs, why stamp sales and population density matter, and why a flock you see in your own field does not automatically mean a hunt should open in your backyard. Craig brings boots-on-the-ground context from northern Ontario, Phil adds the reality of bird numbers and hunter behavior, and Damien pushes the bigger question: are some people actually interested in the science, or just in blasting everything that flies? You’ll also hear a sharp turn into pre-season gear talk, including what new products caught their attention after show season wrapped up. Craig shares the swamp stick and Rixie dog stand blind he picked up, Phil explains why he still wants to get his hands on Rig’Em Right Mallards, and Damien gets into the obsession with fit, shims, and why he’s seriously considering a 20 gauge after testing slower-velocity loads. The conversation also covers boots, waders, Gore-Tex, Filson fit tips, and why the right footwear can make or break a hunt. If you’re the kind of hunter who reads the regulations, cares about conservation, wants to upgrade gear wisely, or simply enjoys a no-filter conversation about ducks, geese, cranes, and the occasional bad take online, this episode is for you. It’s part gear talk, part reality check, and part reminder that not every hot take deserves a reaction. Essential listening for waterfowlers heading into the season who want the bigger picture—not just the loudest comment thread. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen.

    More Than Killing Ducks | Jake Maxwell — EP 280

    Public land, prairie potholes, and the future of duck hunting come into sharp focus in this no-filter conversation with Jake Maxwell of Chasen Green. If you care about real-world duck hunting strategy, conservation, or how modern content is changing the sport, this one hits home fast. Jake joins Damien, alongside Craig and Phil for a wide-ranging episode that goes far beyond “how to kill birds.” They get into what’s actually happening with duck numbers, why the prairie pothole region matters to hunters in both the U.S. and Canada, and how social media can either help grow waterfowling or drag it down. You’ll discover: Why Jake believes ducks are fewer, harder to find, and more unpredictable than ever How public land hunting changed once tools like OnX and digital mapping became game changers Why Jake’s content feels different from polished hunting shows What he’s learned from hunting across new states, new conditions, and new pressure The one rule he says every duck hunter should follow if they want more success Why the next generation of hunters needs more mentorship, not more gatekeeping Damien, Craig, and @fowledcollective also press Jake on the tension between hunting, filming, outfitting, and staying authentic, leading to some honest talk about responsibility, controversy, and what actually helps the sport long-term. Jake shares how he thinks about conservation, why he doesn’t shy away from tough topics, and what keeps him grounded when the hunting world gets loud. Jake Maxwell is the force behind Chasen Green, known for raw public-land hunting content, thoughtful takes on conservation, and a style that teaches without pretending there’s only one way to do it. His perspective blends hard-earned waterfowl experience with a willingness to talk about the issues that matter. Essential listening if you love duck hunting, hunt public ground, follow Chasen Green, or want a smarter conversation about where waterfowling is headed next. Surround yourself with good people, and good things will happen. Sit back and relax, this is a great show Looking for new products?

    In this episode of the Punisher Waterfowl Podcast, the crew sits down with Jaden Bankes for a lively, unapologetic conversation about duck hunting culture, big-water rigs, Long Point history, and the obsession that drives waterfowl hunters. From the legacy of Banks Boats to the realities of layout hunting on rough water, the discussion dives into the gear, traditions, and debates that define the sport. The conversation gets candid and entertaining as the guys share opinions on overrated gear, band hunting, camo, decoys, lanyards, and what really matters in the field. Along the way, they swap stories about dangerous conditions, legendary hunts, and the kind of hunters who always seem to be in the right place at the right time. Equal parts funny, opinionated, and full of hard-earned waterfowl wisdom, this episode is a must-listen for anyone who loves ducks, boats, and the stories that come with chasing them.
