Ducks Unlimited's film visits Mike Hruby, a DU volunteer, major donor and decoy carver from Texas. Hunting with Mike and his friends on the Texas coast, the DU Films crew discovers what makes a blue collar guy like Mike so passionate about waterfowling and giving back to conservation.
“I wasn’t cut out for college, so I joined the Marine Corps,” said Hruby. “When I got finished with that, I chose the blue collar way of life and I am currently a Head Journeyman Lineman for CenterPoint Energy. The guys you see running around in bucket trucks and hard hats, that’s us out there working long hours and getting everybody’s power back on.”
