Milwaukee Harbor Patrol Officer and IUPA Steward Dips His Toe into New Water on Brotherhood Outdoors National TV Series

Milwaukee, Wis. —This week on Brotherhood Outdoors, a dedicated sportsman and International Union of Police Associations (IUPA) Local 21 member, Daniel Roufus, travels to Long Island for a brant hunt that ignites his passion for waterfowl hunting.

A Wisconsin native, Roufus is accustomed to hunting large whitetails. Deer hunting grew into a passion for him after his father-in-law introduced him to the sport, which he is now passing on to his son. Waterfowl hunting wasn’t really his thing, he said, until he experienced it on his once-in-a-lifetime Long Island adventure.

Roufus is a carpenter turned steelworker turned police officer. As a Milwaukee Police Department Harbor Patrol Officer, Roufus serves his community on the same waterways where he enjoys fishing. His role in the community and in the union go hand-in-hand. “The outdoors is close to my heart,” said Roufus. “I am all about enjoying what nature has to offer, passing on healthy information, and practicing what you preach. The fact that this can be done while supporting union-based activities is the icing on the cake.”

With daily limits to hit, will the Long Island water be generous to Roufus? Tune into Brotherhood Outdoors on the Sportsman Channel on Tuesday, Nov. 3 at 4 p.m. Eastern with re-airings on Friday at 11:30 a.m., Saturday at 1:30 a.m., and Sunday, Nov. 8 at 11 a.m.
