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

Dan Oliver remembers.
He remembers that Lake of the Woods ice-fishing trip several years ago. One night, sitting at a lodge bar sipping an adult beverage with friends after a day on the hard water, Oliver remembers overhearing a conversation about “this foundation,” and being intrigued by it.

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

Big Green Lake, one of Wisconsin’s most popular fishing destinations, may soon see the daily panfish bag limit drop from 25 to 10 if sportsmen support a DNR proposal at the April spring fish and game hearings that open Monday, April 14.

Most of us who enjoy spending time in the outdoors readily recognize the recreational value of owning wooded land – having a place to hunt, hike, camp, view wildlife, and more.

Wooded land also can provide economic benefits through periodic managed timber harvests that provide income through the sale of saw logs, bolts (short logs or sections of a large log, usually less than 8 feet long), and pulpwood. However, selling timber from your land may well represent one of the largest financial transactions you’ll ever make.
