Dan Ladd: Deer camp and road trips… cures for cabin fever in the offseason

Featured, Fishing, Hunting, New York /

Earlier this year, I vented in this space about not getting out on the hard water or ski trails during the winter months as much as I used to. I should confess that in recent years I’ve joined in some other activities that have become common during the early part of the year to help make up for it.
One of the sure cures for Cabin Fever is to, well, go to our Adirondack hunting cabin.

Dan Ladd: Earning a second buck will force New York hunters to decide

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, National Hunting, New York, Opinion /

There’s a situation I keep thinking about since the New York DEC rolled out the latest proposed regulations designed to encourage hunters to take more antlerless deer.
It involved a botched chance at a good buck on the last day of the early Northern Zone muzzleloading season two years ago.

New York’s 2025 hunting seasons safest in recorded history

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, National Hunting, National News, New York, News /

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation documented seven hunting-related shooting incidents (HRSIs) during the 2025 hunting seasons, and none were fatal, according to a recently released report.
The total lands below the 10-year average of HRSIs recorded since record keeping began more than 70 years ago and the low numbers make the 2025 hunting season the safest in New York’s recorded history.

Earn-a-second buck reg coming to New York? DEC proposals seek more antlerless kill

Featured, Home Page News, Hunting, National Hunting, National News, New York, News /

The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation says roughly 13% of the state’s white-tailed deer hunters harvest one or more antlerless deer each year. Only 3% take two or more antlerless deer.
They also want to see these numbers increase and claim the opportunities are there to do so. Therefore, DEC recently put forth a package of proposed regulation changes to help make it happen.

Big impoundment/reservoir, but only small boats allowed on Woodhull Lake in New York

Lake Profile, Lake Profile, New York /

When April 1 arrives and New York’s trout season opens, anglers will be aching to get to their favorite trout fishing destinations. And sometimes, getting there is part of the fun.
But that can also be an obstacle, especially during the spring. For those hoping to access the 5-mile dirt road to Woodhull Lake, just south of Old Forge in Herkimer County, they may have to wait out the mud season.

New York bass angler Jamie Hartman aims to get back on Elite track after fourth-place finish

Featured, Fishing, National Fishing, National News, New York, News /

New York native and Bassmaster Elite Series pro angler Jamie Hartman’s 2026 season is off to an up-and-down start. After a fourth place finish on Alabama’s Lake Guntersville, Feb. 5-8, Hartman stumbled a week later, missing the cut at Lake Martin, also in Alabama.
His success at Guntersville, however, provided a glimpse into the past and some hope that he can get back to regular top-10 finishes he had earlier this decade.
