A small plane that crashed in 2023 while carrying moose meat for hunters in remote western Alaska, killing the husband of former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola, was overweight for takeoff and encountered drag from a set of antlers mounted outside, federal investigators said in a report released last week.
A chance discovery at a privately-owned Poconos area lake could mean the return of shallow-water ciscoes to Lake Erie where they haven’t been seen in more than 60 years.
The salmonid’s restoration also could bode well for lake trout, another Erie native, which, coincidentally, stopped reproducing at about the same time ciscoes disappeared. Ciscoes were the lake trout’s preferred prey.

On July 9, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) issued a bulletin stating “Hypoxic bottom waters have been identified in the Western Basin (of Lake Erie) on both the Ohio and Canadian sides. Persistent light winds will maintain the hypoxic bottom waters.”
Normally, as opposed to waters of the Central Basin below the thermocline, the dissolved oxygen (DO) levels in the entire water column of the Western Basin remain adequate to support a wide range of aquatic organisms.

Dubbed “Antlers and Academics,” the bi-monthly webinar series will focus on an array of seasonal topics. The focus is food plots, but the webinars deal with far more than just putting seeds in the dirt.

“We have a cottage at Little Ted’s if you and Mary want to come up.”
That invitation from Bob Davis and his wife, Pat, came the first week of July. I cleared my busy schedule of feeding the cat and watching a crew mow the yard so we could enjoy a little lake life at my favorite fishing hole.

The history of feral Eurasian collared doves (ECD) in North America began when a Nassau, Bahamas, pet store was burglarized in 1974 and the distraught shopkeeper released the rest of his birds.
The doves, which lay multiple clutches of eggs per season, soon grew into a population numbering in the tens of thousands. Their first appearance in the U.S. may have been earlier but was first formally documented in Florida in 1980.

You know how kids go crazy – nice crazy – when they catch a fish. Well, let them catch a pumpkinseed sunfish and that crazy will rival the Fourth of July fireworks we recently enjoyed.
Pumpkinseeds are like a bottle rocket, flaming sparkle and roman candle all wrapped up in one. Brilliant colors explode across their face and flanks – in a nice way – and there is even a bolt of reddish orange at the tip of their gill flaps.
