Dave Trauba was reminiscing the other day about growing up in rural southeastern Wisconsin, where his love of the outdoors – including hunting and fishing – was nurtured by his immediate family.
“I grew up in a family with a strong hunting tradition,” said Trauba, adding that he lived near two storied marshes – Horicon and Theresa – where ducks and geese were abundant. “My fondest memories are with my grandpa, dad, and brothers hunting waterfowl. Those were magical times that left an impression on me. Truth is, I was lucky because I knew what I wanted to be when I was a sophomore in high school.”

Drought conditions in 2024 hindered the start of the annual steelhead migration in Ohio. Anglers found fall-run fish staging along the Lake Erie shoreline more than they did moving upstream in the rivers.
The rains finally came, the water soaked in the ground, without affecting the river levels as normally seen. It wasn’t until after Christmas when rains filled the rivers. A welcomed relief, the water rising, but tough conditions.
Here are Ohio’s best winter steelhead bets Read More »
