More Than the Hunt with Rusty Creasey

In this episode of Field Good Life, I sit down with longtime friend and Arkansas duck hunter Rusty Creasey, a man who didn’t set out to be an influencer, but ended up becoming a voice a whole lot of folks trust. We cover everything from growing up in the outdoors to building a career in duck hunting, and the real work that happens long before a single bird hits the water. Rusty shares what’s changed in the woods over the years, from increased hunting pressure to the evolving relationship between rice farming and waterfowl habitat, and why it’s getting harder to be a duck in Arkansas these days. This conversation isn’t just about hunting. It’s about time. It’s about mentorship. It’s about taking a kid fishing, even if they’re not yours, and understanding that what you pass on matters more than what you post.
