Four toms had put on an incredible show not far from this place the previous morning. I called two of them to within 25 yards, but never got the shot I wanted with my bow.
That scenario is not uncommon. I sometimes question why I don’t get a shotgun license for spring turkey hunting. Then a hunt comes together and reminds me why I love chasing turkeys while toting a bow. Here are a few things to consider if you want to ditch the ground blind while bowhunting.

My heart began to sink just a little as I made my way to one of my favorite mushroom patches. All along the roadside and the fence rows, what was greening up and putting on a show was not the usual spring culprits.

The Iowa DNR notes that spring electrofishing from 2022 indicated a moderate abundance of largemouth bass up to 20 inches. Bluegill and crappie species were sampled in moderate abundance. Most of the bluegill were 6-8 inches in length and crappie up to 10 inches are available to anglers.
The bite in this area is just starting to resume after being disrupted by waves/wind/rain over the past 10 days or so.

The 147th walleye fishing season officially opens May 6 at Iowa’s Spirit Lake, East and West Okoboji lakes.
“Walleye populations on the Iowa Great Lakes are in very good shape,” said Mike Hawkins, fisheries biologist for the Iowa DNR. “Ice didn’t leave the lakes until mid-April. Fish will likely be more active as they make up for lost time.”

Under the National Wildlife Federation’s Certified Wildlife Habitats program, property owners can elect to have their garden, backyard, woodlot or wetland officially designated as Certified Wildlife Habitat. Basic criteria must be met, and NWF provides plenty of resources for meeting those requirements, but it turns out my 3.24-acre hobby farm already qualifies, and yours might, too.
