The increased usage of rifles shooting straight-walled cartridges has probably made deer hunting safer in Ohio and other states where they are legal.
That’s at least the opinion of Ken Fitz, the ODNR Division of Wildlife’s law enforcement administrator.

The 2023 Ohio Outdoor News Person of the Year is actually two people this year. So, it’s the 2023 People of the Year.
The reason the annual award goes to two people this year is that Dale and Janie Sunderlin are a hunter education team, toiling in the shadows for the past 23 years to educate Ohio’s hunting public.
Dale Walborn Reservoir in northeast Ohio is part of the Mahoning River system of lakes in that part of the state. And, though it may not be as acclaimed as a Berlin Lake in the same system, it does contain a sleeper largemouth bass fishery that rivals all other lakes in the area.

In a nod to the increasing popularity of straight-walled cartridges for rifles in Ohio deer hunting, Andrew Mitchem put one to good use this past December.

These facilities contain plumbing, and thus cannot be used during the colder winter months, according to the DOW.

If you want evidence of a fish management success story you don’t have to look any further than Central Ohio’s Hoover Reservoir.
The four-fish daily split bag limit for catfish has been dropped at Hoover. That slot limit was intended to protect fish between 18 and 28 inches. The Division of Wildlife has also reduced the stocking rate for blues at Hoover, given that the population is doing so well.
