Sutter National Wildlife Refuge

Now, you know, there's places that o- there's other places that I love to hunt that are very hard to use a cart on.

And, and, and for years, you know, there's this refuge called Sutter Refuge, and it was the refuge that was right next door to my grandfather's ranch.

So, you know, in the north lot where we liked to hunt growing up, and this is where my dad used to take us almost every weekend, you gotta go up the levee.

And we didn't have carts back then.

Um, w- first is knowledge o- o- of the area you're hunting.

Um, knowing the flight patterns, the traditional flight patterns of, of each refuge, 'cause each one's, each one's different of how those birds utilize that area.

Like, Sutter used to be, you know, it wasn't maybe lights out in the morning, but 10:00 those mallards are coming right back up the bypass.

So you had the 10:00 mallard flight.
