Thursday is here, and so is the weekly fishing report! It’s a lighter report this week, both due to some crummy weather and the holiday weekend. The weather over the holiday weekend really killed my fishing plans. I finally was able to get out on Monday to one of my local hilltown spots. It wasContinue reading “Jigs and Bigs Fishing Report: 06/03/21”

Use Your Voice, Make Some Noise
Massachusetts Division of Fisheries and Wildlife is currently in the process of trying to reach an agreement for increasing the license fees.

Wild Woman Spotlight – May
Meet Raven. She’s a CNA in Lancaster, PA with an extreme passion for fishing. Her post on a women’s fishing group caught my attention: “I’m 24. Young to basically everybody – especially the population that fishes. So today I was at the stream waiting for the stocking truck to come.

The F Word
Last week I wrote about how just over a year ago, I started to find my way again after being stuck in a rut, for far too long. I cannot express enough how much reconnecting with what I love to do has had such a positive effect on my life, but even with all theContinue reading “The F Word”
Share the Joy
I have been surrounded by hunting and fishing since before I was born. My mom shot a deer when she was pregnant with me in the fall of 92. Seventeen years later, in the same spot, I shot my first buck. My parents used to take me out in a baby backpack when they wouldContinue reading “Share the Joy”

Let’s Eat Some Turkey
Massachusetts turkey season is winding down, with an end date of Saturday, May 22nd. To say it’s been eventful would be an understatement. Between my dad, brother, and I we have 4 birds. Something I have noticed when I talk to other hunters: we are all very eager to share our stories about how toContinue reading “Let’s Eat Some Turkey”
Fuel Your Fire
It’s no secret that the pandemic has turned people’s lives upside down around the world, but I wanted to share how it inadvertently helped me reconnect to what I love to do. Pre-pandemic, fall of 2019: I was living in upstate New York with none of my family nearby, and recently out of a badContinue reading “Fuel Your Fire”
