Wisconsin Wardens at Work: ‘Admin’ wardens go afield for deer season

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, National Hunting, Wisconsin /

DNR game wardens may have dreamed of becoming a field warden because they love being out in Wisconsin’s natural resources. They know protecting those resources comes before personal recreation, and that means working the nine-day gun deer season. Even when moving up within the ranks, “admin” game wardens can expect to work the gun deer season.
While times have changed and some game wardens do hunt deer with a rifle in November, nearly all wardens work during gun deer season instead of taking a large portion of the nine days to put venison in a freezer or trophies on the wall.

Jeremiah Haas: Hunters should take advantage of post-season shopping

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, Illinois, National Hunting /

A new year begins as most of our hunting seasons end. It is a great time to pick up some deals as retailers discount items for the year. However, like any sale, you need to be strategic so you don’t end up with four pairs of bibs and seven face masks.
Having a shopping list of things to watch for can be a great way to get you prepared for the 2025 season.

Steve McComas: Here’s a celebration fish can appreciate

Featured, Features, Fishing, Home Page News, Minnesota, National Fishing /

Ice on a lake doesn’t freeze all at once – it sputters and hesitates and then the edges stiffen. Whole-lake ice formation comes from the slow dance of rearranging water molecules.
Lake ice always follows nature’s rules. It’s a deal the water makes with winter, and the agreement lasts until the big break-up in spring. Currently under the ice, algae have died back and water goes from Murkyville to Cleartown in the underwater city that never sleeps.
