Every spring, anglers congregate on Pool 4 of the Mississippi River near Red Wing, Minn., to ply its waters before the inland waters walleye season opens and to have a chance to catch a monster fish. This spring, so far, is no different, thanks to decent early-spring weather and stable, if low, river conditions.

Back in the day, when I was a full-time outdoor scribe and was out there as many days as not, I used to joke that ice fishing was the price I had to pay to have my job the rest of the year.
It wasn’t because I don’t like it, but of my top 10 outdoor pastimes, ice fishing is No. 11. Part of what doesn’t especially excite me about ice fishing is that by mid-winter, you’re not really outdoors anymore, you’re in a shack or a tent.

We have heard from many people up in arms about the Glen Onoko Falls land deal between the Pennsylvania Game Commission and the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources in Carbon County. I think Dave Gustafson, the commission’s deputy executive director, did an admirable job of trying to defuse hunter anger in our story.
But the proposed transaction – to transfer or exchange 391 acres from the State Game Lands System smells bad to me. Why the lack of transparency?
Pennsylvania’s opening day of trout season brings with it lots of anglers who are full of anticipation. They set up at known hotspots, which are usually the places that the fish were dumped into the streams, with hopes of catching their share in short order.
After a few days of this kind of pressure, the fish react and become hard to catch. Anglers trying to use first-day tactics usually end up with few or any fish in their creels and mistakenly believe the stream is fished out – which is hardly ever the case.
