There should be NO Commercial Fishing for any fish species considered 'Over-fished' , 'Undergoing Overfishing' or Subject to Recreational Seasons, Limits, or Closures... Game Fish Status IS the Answer !!!

    You do know that they had a show before A&E. There was also hunting videos before that.

    From what I've seen the couple of times I watched it. I would say yes, it's about as real as wrestling. For entertainment purposes only: no real ducks were harmed in this broadcast.

    I heard Thom Beers speak at a conference a few years back.

    He remarked that shooting 300 hours of something 'real' is more than enough to tell any story that you want.

    I have tried on a couple of occasions to watch it,,, it is just terrible and so contrived. I just cannot figure out the attraction. I know some will say it is because of the values they represent but it is so fake I cannot get past it to see any of them.

    I'll bet if a professional crew recorded 300 hours of my life, they could twist it to make me look like a lazy drunk. Bastards.

    I believe the boys finally took after their dad and uncle SI… My son took a while to get into hunting and he dressed weird for a bit also.

    TV is about entertainment first. If it's not entertaining, no one will watch. Most of these "reality" tv shows have writers. Why does a show need writers if it's "reality" show?

    The three episodes that were to be dominated by Conservation theme,traditional duck hunter enviro outrage,specific issue identification and "Ducks Unlimited" spot and sporting arms review relative to black on black gun crime was soundly cancelled.
    All this latest stuff but a Diversion.
    Hunters are present yet relatively uncommon in Florida :wink
