EP 118. No Regrets: Modern-Day Louisiana Market Hunter Stories, Part 1
Maybe the good old days were different. To hear today's guest tell it, it wasn't a hundred years ago but during my own lifetime that salt and pepper were the only real Louisiana seasons abided. Everything was eaten, by necessity in many cases. Everything. And local wildlife markets thrived. Mr. Johnny Borrel from Avoyelles Parish began hunting at a very young age. He started market hunting in high school and tells us what it was like back then. When and why did he start selling wild ducks? Where'd he sell game and what were the going rates? What's the most ducks he ever bagged? What about game wardens? What shotgun was considered best? When and why did he stop? Mr. Borrel is an animated storyteller, a steel-trap mind for details. Like a hell-bent green-winged teal with a tail wind, today's Duck Season Somewhere podcast episode is going make your head spin!
