One of the beauties of having cellular trail cameras is that you get a pretty good inventory of the animals on your property. Over the years we have taken that opportunity to build a book of shooters and non-shooters each season.

Recently, I was told the story about elephant populations in Africa, and the role each gender has for a stable population. Back in the 1990s, Kruger National Park in South Africa, was faced with a growing elephant problem in that the population had grown so large that the park couldn’t sustain the levels.
This park was a remarkable success story in the recovery of elephants. While some of the elephants had to be culled, others were transported to other National Parks, to aid in their recovery programs.

While this summer has been miserable in regard to heat and humidity, the calendar is telling us that the end is near. The first seasons of fall hunting have begun, and the river temperatures are finally starting to drop.
For many Quad Cities anglers in Iowa and Illinois, now is the time that we get excited for some of the best fishing of the year.

Recently, I had the opportunity to go to Canada and do some fishing with my family. While we all dream of those magical adventures in the Northwoods, after a few days up there it became very clear to me how spoiled we were back in the Quad Cities with the resources we have.
The road there was almost as you would expect – if you were trying to get off the grid and leave society.

Back in 2009, Tim Himsl, then a senior at Moline High School, had the opportunity to join the school’s fishing team, which had just become a sanctioned high school sport in Illinois.
Back then, there was one sectional tournament to qualify for the state tournament, with the top three teams advancing to state. Moline would show well in that tournament, taking first and fourth. Unfortunately for Himsl’s team, they were two fish short of a limit.

Almost all of Illinois has been hit by severe storms in June and July.
While you may not be thinking about hunting season regarding that, it is something to consider as we move into August and last-minute preparations are being made. First, assess what damage has occurred and if you need to make some changes.

It’s the summer and families across the country are taking their vacations.
For me, it was a trip down to Jacksonville, Florida, to a home owned by a friend about a mile up the St. Johns River from the Atlantic Coast. Having been there before, I have watched dolphins ride the bow waves of ships as they come in, and my son caught a sculpin-looking fish off a piece of string cheese we bought at a gas station. However, this time was different.

Many fathers across the Midwest celebrated Father’s Day with barbeques, boating or other family-oriented activities outside. Personally, I had a fishing and kayaking clinic on Saturday, then spent Sunday at home with my family, although we did head out for a canoe paddle in the evening.

As a parent of two teenagers and a coach at our school, I have seen the changes in kids during this electronics age. We were mean, mean parents when we did not allow our first child to get a cell phone until they were 14. Jetting off to Yellowstone for the weekend might not be in your budget, but there is a lot of nature around us, if you are willing to get out and look.
