Changes to the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation’s Angler Achievement Awards Program made in 2024 came a year too early for a Herkimer County angler who regularly fishes the Salmon River, near Pulaski in Oswego County.
According to a DEC spokesperson, the agency received a report of an angler inquiring about the identification of a 6.5-pound salmon he had caught from the Salmon River on Aug. 30. The angler, Cliff Chamberlan, thought he might have caught a rare pink salmon.

John Roseberry led me into a nondescript office, handed me a coffee, pointed to a chair and somehow managed to lasso and lock down my attention for exactly 5 hours and 47 minutes. Seven coffees or more later, I found myself absorbed by his story of what has gone wrong for bobwhite quail in Illinois.
Roseberry, who spent his entire professional career at the Cooperative Wildlife Research Laboratory at Southern Illinois University, worked on other wildlife species, too, including whitetails, but he had a special interest in quail research.
John Balfanz’s rural Prairie du Sac home in Wisconsin is filled from top to bottom with “entaxied” animal mounts. There are shoulder and euro mounts of white-tailed deer. There are turkey tailfeathers and beards. There are moose antlers, snake skins, a stuffed badger, pheasant, crow, bear, and more.
Some are handed down from Balfanz’s father, who enjoyed taxidermy for years. Many were done by Balfanz himself, who took up the hobby after his father passed away.
