Take advantage of the fishing when the ice is nice in New York

Blogs, Featured, Fishing, National Fishing, New York, Opinion /

Most hunting seasons are winding down but that doesn’t mean that many outdoors people will be sitting home. Cold weather provides many New York sportsmen with some of the very best opportunities to get outdoors.

Cory Netland, Minnesota DNR New London area wildlife supervisor, remembers hearing the first report of a fisher in the New London area. It happened in 2013, and he was caught off guard because he thought it was unusual to see fishers in that area of the state.

Featured, Hunting, News, Pennsylvania /

Clutching his 6.5 Creedmoor rifle, Zeiders, of Duncansville, Blair County, Pa., was filled with the anticipation that came along with the opening day of “buck season” as he stared down through the woods. As luck would have it, at 8:38 a.m. Zeiders made a clean 135-yard shot on the most unique deer he ever would harvest; an antlered doe.

Featured, Hunting, National Hunting, Ohio, Opinion /

Imagine that cool, crisp fall morning while deer hunting. Maybe it’s a muzzleloader from your great-grandfather, a shotgun passed down from your grandfather when he was a kid, a bow you purchased with the money from working overtime, or it might be a rifle your parents purchased for your 12th birthday.

Minnesota’s famed wildlife artist, Jim Killen, dies at 89

Featured, Minnesota, National News, Nature Page & Night Sky, News /

Jim Killen was known to look at life as a painting in waiting.
“It starts with a dream and a blank canvas and it’s anybody’s guess how it will turn out,” he’d say. “Then brushstroke by brushstroke with time and care, something beautiful starts to take shape …”
Killen’s life certainly took shape – and beautifully so.
