Two many minis?
Some things go best unsaid. We were in the process of moving a few years back when one of the movers came in and announced to my wife and I that he had finished packing up all the stuff in the garage. That was nice. “Say, did you know you had 27 rods and reels?“, … Continue reading

Fishing report ( kind of )
There was something strange on the lake Saturday: Boats. Then Sunday, they pretty much disappeared again. And it wasn’t because everybody went home to watch the Super Bowl. True, the white perch have been biting for the brave at heart who follow them every day. But fishing pressure on most area lakes has been extremely … Continue reading
Got your goose?
Still itching to get up before the crack of dawn, wade through the mud in the cold or rain and take a few shots at high flying birds? Well, it’s time to get your goose. The extended goose season is upon us and there are plenty of geese. The only question is what to do … Continue reading
Crappie.com, part 2

Duck call$ and the boat $how
The stories around the highest bidder for Duck Commander Phil Robertson’s millionth duck call made last year just kind of make one feel proud of folks in our area. First of all, Duck Commander donated the commemorative, autographed call to be auctioned to raise money for the Northeast Louisiana Veterans’ Association Wounded Warrior hunts. The good … Continue reading
As first reported here….
Folks that know me would tell you in a heartbeat that I would never say “I TOLD YOU SO”…but I want to share this with you anyway as we look at three days this week with temps in the 20’s. Okay, humor me. It’s a rerun (pardon me) of our Oct. 2, 2013 entry into … Continue reading
Deer gone it!
With only a few exceptions, mostly for primitive weapons, the 2013-14 deer season is gone. It’s in the books. It’s a wrap. Check the LDWF regulations pamphlet to make sure of any remaining dates in your area, and the special requirements, like primitive weapons only, for those dates! From all indications, it was a good … Continue reading
New Yo-Yo regs in effect
It’s yo-yo time in north Louisiana. And no, I’m not talking politics. I’m talking about the automatic trigger devices popular with white perch fishermen this time of year. It’s seems like a rite of passage for young fisherman to set out yo-yo’s among cypress trees, camp out on a cold night by a roaring fire … Continue reading
Hunt like a Hero
Saturday, I had a great time at Wild Wings in Downsville visiting with four of the United States Army’s finest, SFC Phillip Whitty, SGT Steve Keller, SPC Daniel Cothren, and SPC Red Mauck. They all arrived at the Lodge Friday and did a little trap shooting with Louisiana Hunters for Heroes President Donnie Vocker, his … Continue reading
