KY Afield Outdoors: Waterfowl season promising By Lee McClellan Frankfort, KY - The moderate drought conditions across Kentucky brought baked, cracked yards, dust, fires and streams as low as any time in recent memory. This would seem a negative for the upcoming waterfowl season, but the summer's ample rains provided a cushion against the fall dry spell.
