I Want to do it Myself

I am a firm believer in growth  – mentally, physically, emotionally, culturally – growth is good. If you’re not growing, learning, and asking questions you’re either standing stagnant or worse, regressing. When I moved back home back in 2020 when COVID hit I was disconnected from every aspect of my life including the outdoors. It’sContinue reading “I Want to do it Myself”

Katy’s First Deer

There is absolutely nothing like harvesting your first deer. The rush, the adrenaline, the tears. Now, that all still remains the same any time I have harvested any animal, but there is nothing like that of the first. It makes all the hard work, mistakes, ugly tears, and being overtired for days or weeks onContinue reading “Katy’s First Deer”

Wild Woman Spotlight – August 2022

Back in May I was gearing up to go out on a fishing trip out of Boston in search of Striped Bass. We had booked the trip well in advance through a women’s outdoors group, and there were 4 of us slotted to go. Last minute, someone was unable to go due to COVID andContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – August 2022”

Wild Woman Spotlight – June

Back in December I posted on a few fishing groups to see if anyone wanted to get together to do some ice fishing, and that’s how I met Vikki. We chatted briefly online and said heck ya, let’s set it up! So, low and behold, Vikki traveled to Western Mass and I met her andContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – June”

No Turkey? No Problem.

It’s been a while since I have had time to sit down and really write something from the heart, especially as it pertains to hunting and fishing. Last weekend I was sitting by a fire on Lake Bomoseen in Castleton Vermont and I got to reflecting on my turkey season. Funny, if someone asked meContinue reading “No Turkey? No Problem.”

Wild Woman Spotlight – April 2022

It’s insane to believe that April has officially come to an end. The good news is, that means another Wild Woman spotlight! There is NOTHING I love more than when a new woman reaches out wanting to talk about hunting or fishing. Megan reached out to me on FB about a largemouth I caught thisContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – April 2022”

Why?

There’s always some sort of level of surprise when I meet someone for the first time and they find out that I love to hunt and fish. Most recently, I met some new people through my dad and after chit chatting for a while one of them made a comment about how he had seenContinue reading “Why?”
