EP. 129: Pennsylvania Duck Opener: Mallards, Good Friends & Lessons Learned
Thursday, 15 October, 2026
Duck season is officially underway here in Pennsylvania, and we kicked it off Saturday with a great opening day hunt on a small creek system here in southwestern PA. Brian was joined by his good friend Mike Pomaibo and his dad, Mike Sr., better known as Mick. They had a great morning in the blind, seeing a few dozen ducks and putting birds on the strap. Not a bad way to get the season started! In this episode, your host Brian Halbleib and Mike Pomaibo break down that opening day hunt, but they also talk about Mike's journey as a waterfowler. He's got three seasons under his belt now, they discuss what he's learned along the way, how his approach has changed, and what goals he's setting for season number four. They also get into some gear talk, covering the tried-and-true equipment they rely on season after season, along with a few new additions they're bringing into the field this year. It's a good conversation between a couple of buddies talking duck hunting, lessons learned, and getting ready for another season chasing waterfowl.
