Fish Ohio program marks 50th anniversary

Featured, Fishing, National Fishing, National News, News, Ohio /

The state’s fishing license program has achieved its century mark this year and everyone who participates in the Fish Ohio program will receive a symbolic piece of birthday cake.
In a manner of speaking. For this year, the Fish Ohio pin will feature as its emblem a very good representation of the leaping largemouth bass that appeared on the 1925 Ohio license. That was the first time Ohio adults were required to buy a fishing license.

Featured, Fishing, Iowa, National Fishing, National News, News /

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) will relax the fishing regulations at Dunlap Pond starting July 1 to allow anglers to more freely harvest fish before the lake is completely drained as part of a plan to improve the lake’s depth, habitat, and water quality. 
Anglers with a valid fishing license may harvest any size or number of largemouth bass, bluegill, crappie, channel catfish, and all other fish species from Dunlap Pond.

Weather, nesting conditions have been good for Iowa pheasants in recent months

Featured, Hunting, Iowa, National Hunting, National News, News /

Iowa’s pheasant population is expected to benefit from the 2024-25 mild winter and average spring that much of the state experienced.
According to Iowa’s state climatologist, last winter was the fourth least snowy in 138 years, and the spring was normal for rainfall and temperature.
“Given the statewide information, we are expecting a good nesting effort and our weather model is predicting pheasant populations will likely be higher for the 2025 hunting season,” said Todd Bogenschutz, upland wildlife biologist for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR).
