My late grandfather, whom I called Buckeye, was a dyed-in-the wool bird hunter, a lethal wing-shooter, and a lover of good hunting dogs.
Growing up in the late 1970s, I vaguely remember one of his canines – a German shepherd and former police dog that, according to family lore, my grandfather trained for the field. The dog eventually became the neighborhood gun dog.

Tom Bahti: Early field hunts for ducks bring back fond memories

Featured, Features, Hunting, National Hunting, Wisconsin /

It was an October day sometime in the early 1980s. At the time I was the wildlife manager assigned to Shawano and Oconto counties, working out of the Wisconsin DNR offices in the basement of the county courthouse in Shawano.
Driving home from work one evening along old Hwy. 29 (two lanes in those days) east of Bonduel, I saw a knot of mallards circling a cut cornfield. I pulled over to consult my county plat book and determine the ownership.

State Roundup: An ode to Wisconsin Public Radio’s Larry Meiller as his retirement nears

Featured, Fishing, Hunting, Opinion, Wisconsin /

Larry Meiller has the longest-running radio call-in show in Wisconsin.
He started Wisconsin Public Radio’s call-in format in 1978. I did not know that. That’s pretty amazing. As most of you probably know, Meiller is putting down the headphones and microphone for good soon. He’s retiring once and for all. Or at least that’s what he’s saying now. I’m not sure I can see Meiller sitting still for very long.
