Mystery Tackle Box: 1

Something I hate to admit, is that I tend to have very boring tackle box contents. Worms, Powerbait, basic hooks, sinkers, and bobbers; a couple older Thomas lures or rooster tails. I have never been good at picking out different tackle for myself. Partly because I don’t really want to pay $7-$10 for a lureContinue reading “Mystery Tackle Box: 1”

Way Up North

Easter being today, I was contemplating not posting. I decided instead to throw a shout out to a special family of mine. I have a memory of asking my mom for 3 kinds of cereal in one bowl after a weekend “way up north”. She called a certain someone asking where I’d gotten that idea,Continue reading “Way Up North”

Some Responses

I wasn’t planning on writing about doe tags again, but there was so much feedback I felt it deserved another post. I wasn’t really expecting the sheer volume of responses and replies that I received, primarily via social media. Nothing could have made me happier, because one of my goals is to open dialogue onContinue reading “Some Responses”

5 Stars for Electric Drill Auger Kits

There is always a lull between the last day of December when deer season ends, and the fourth week in April which marks the beginning of turkey season (my personal FAVORITE but more on that another time). With nothing to hunt in-between, I find myself doing a lot of ice fishing. This year’s new-found favoriteContinue reading “5 Stars for Electric Drill Auger Kits”

You hunt, so does that mean you just like to kill?

When people find out that I am an avid hunter, the first thing they think about, after the shock wears off that I am a woman, is the killing. You know, being “out for blood”. I have been asked many times if I hate animals, and my reaction has typically been one of shock orContinue reading “You hunt, so does that mean you just like to kill?”

Introduction

Hello! Thanks for taking the time to read what I have to write. If you had told me a year ago that I would be writing for the public eye, where literally anyone can view what I have to write, I would have laughed in your face. But, here I am! So what am IContinue reading “Introduction”
