Stray Cast: Elmore Leonard & duck hunter

Since the switch to the new web log set up, I had stopped pulling out the weekly stray cast as a separate post.

But I have heard from enough people to restart to doing it as a separate.

It only seems apt to run the Stray Cast here.

After all, this Web log is named for the Stray Cast, which has snapped off the end of the outdoors column in the Sun-Times on Wednesdays since April 2, 2003.

Here’s today’s, well, Wednesday’s:
