At the age of 11, Dion fell in love with duck hunting. His obsession to chase ducks grew from the Yakima Valley where he was born and grew up, to the Columbia River, and all over Eastern Washington. His dad taught him over the years how to be confident when using any duck call. Dion's hunting obsession has helped him in many aspects of his life because " it's just flat out hard work to be a successful waterfowler." That hard work carried over while he attended Perry Technical Institute, where he graduated top of is class and has continued to help his career with the Department of Defense (DOD). Even today with life's challenges and more obligations, His relentlessness and dedication to waterfowl and its industry has never wavered. "I am always asking questions and wanting to gain more knowledge about waterfowl and hunting. I will continue to share my love and knowledge for this sport with any and every individual I meet." Dion is married. |

"I hunt for the love of the outdoors and the challenge of the hunt. A good hunt is one that ends safely, with smiles. A true sportsman will enjoy the hunt as much as he enjoys the harvest. If you put forth the right amount of hard work, proper scouting, fundamental decoy spreads, and good shooting; that is a good day One bird or Seven. Sometimes folks forget that a limit is a limit not an expectation." Adam has hunted since he was little in the Kent valley and expanded his hunting to eastern wa. He is married, has tow young sons and lives south of Seattle. |
  He loves taking those new to the sport and watching the look on their face once they realize the magnificence and cunning of waterfowl- it is a great experience. Adam prides himself on taking great care in details, even the care of the meat by quickly cooling the birds to provide a great tasty meal. |
