Behind the scenes

• It is the first short in which Mel Blanc voices Porky Pig, instead of his original voice actor Joe Dougherty, who had been fired after the cartoon Porky's Romance because he could not control his stutter.

Legacy

• A year later in 1938, Daffy was properly given a name in his second appearance, Daffy Duck and Egghead.
• Porky's visual appearance in this short was used for Hare Hunter Porky in Looney Tunes: World of Mayhem. One of his special moves, Can't Get Away, is also derived from a scene where Porky tries to shoot the ducks but instead sinks his boat with his rifle.
