Episode #265 Why Wetlands Won’t Hold Water | Sand Veins Explained

from The North American Waterfowler · host Elliott Snider

In this episode, we sit down with Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks property manager Cody Stegman to talk through what’s actually happening beneath the surface of these wetlands. Cody explains how “sand veins” run through these areas like fingers back to the river, and why water that looks perfect one day can be completely gone the next. We also get into what this means for habitat, how it impacts management decisions, and the challenges of building and maintaining wetlands in areas that simply won’t hold water. If you’ve ever hunted a spot that looked right but didn’t last, this will help you understand why.
