After being closed to the public for nearly a decade, Oconto County’s Green Lake Park is back in business, thanks to a 25-year agreement between the Mountain Historical Society and U.S. Forest Service.
The local historical society will operate and maintain the park, located south of Mountain at 13322 Hwy. 32. The USFS had operated the park until closing it in 2015 due to budget cuts.
Waupaca Chain O’ Lakes boaters might have noticed the newest addition to the Taylor Lake public boat landing after local DNR game wardens teamed up with the town of Farmington and Waupaca Chain O’ Lakes Association to provide a ‘Kids Don’t Float’ life jacket loaner station at the popular landing located off of Otter Drive just west of Waupaca.

Charlie Wanty was only a teenager when he shot his first turkey in 2004.
Twenty years later, his love of turkey hunting is stronger than ever and he is now president of the Waupaca, Wis., learn-to-hunt program that helps first-timers enter the sport. More than 30 novices were in this year’s program, held April 6-7 at Brooks Dairy Farm near Waupaca.
“I didn’t grow up in a hunting family,” Wanty said. “I started hanging with some buddies who liked to hunt. This program was an outlet to get into something.”

As the largest lake in a metropolitan area of more than 400,000 people, Madison’s Lake Mendota draws plenty of anglers year-round.
There are a number of reasons for that, including a diverse fishery that includes everything from panfish to walleyes to carp to muskies to channel catfish. Anglers also have their choice of several boat landings and shore-fishing sites.

Almost 50 years ago, Dan Harmon III had a vision of introducing people to the sport of trout fishing.
Harmon, a Trout Unlimited member from Oshkosh, Wis., who passed away last year at age 92, helped the Central Wisconsin Trout Unlimited Chapter start a fly fishing school with mentors showing students the ins and outs of a sport that can appear intimidating and complicated. That school now bears Harmon’s name, and is still going strong. The chapter held its workshop June 1-2 on the Tomorrow River at Riverside Bible Camp near Amherst.
