Pymatuning Reservoir in Ashtabula County, Ohio, at a high point for multiple species

An impoundment so large that it sprawls over two states, Pymatuning Reservoir consumes up to 17,088 surface water acres.
Pymatuning is huge, so large, in fact, that back in World War II a Cleveland-based company used the reservoir’s lengthy south end to test the motor mechanisms for torpedoes.

Ohio bowhunter survives fall to share message of safety

It’s a memory seared into Justin Lanclos’ memory and it is a lesson learned that he desperately wants to pass on to his fellow deer hunter.
He knows he’s lucky to be alive to tell the story.
In July 2016, Lanclos and his 9-year-old son Carter were hanging lock-on bowstands on their Louisiana property when something tragic happened.

Ohio’s hybrid striper record falls for second time in 2024

Larry Powers was fishing the waters of Caesars Creek Lake in Clinton County, Ohio. It was Friday, Aug. 16, a planned trip with an old friend who wanted to go fishing. They set out to catch a muskie or two. Powers was using a balsa crankbait on 17-pound test monofilament. It was an LC Powers crankbait, one of his own; he makes them at home.
It was this homemade crankbait that helped him catch the new state record hybrid striped bass.

Pennsylvania’s 100-year-old club members fondly recall good old days

Big Chiques Hunting Club in Lycoming County, Pa., was founded a century ago by a group of men who wanted fellowship and a good place to target white-tailed deer, bears, turkeys and other game.
They met on the banks of Chiques Creek in Lancaster County, where they all lived, to formulate their plan. Deer numbers were robust in 1924, so much so that the Pennsylvania Game Commission was introducing new management regulations that included allowing landowners to kill deer for crop damage, and establishing an antlerless deer season.

Pittsburgh riverkeeper, Evan Clark, has passion for clean water

Captain Evan Clark built a boat, with a buddy, when he was in his early 20s and eager to go adventuring on the Mississippi River.
They launched out of St. Joseph, Missouri, bound for New Orleans, and while they didn’t get far before their little vessel flipped, it was the beginning of a series of exploits that eventually led Clark to Pittsburgh’s Three Rivers, which he now – literally – calls home. Clark lives on a 50-foot houseboat on the Allegheny, and works as the riverkeeper for the non-profit watchdog Three Rivers Waterkeeper.
