Happy Thursday anglers! Brett and I have both hung up our fishing gear, as hunting season is finally here. We will be back on the water when the ice is safe, hopefully with lots of venison to share. The rest of the jig heads have been out doing their thing! Tim hit up Congamond thisContinue reading “Jigs and Bigs Fishing Report: 10/14/21”

Wild Woman Spotlight – September
It was April when I reached out to Tara to see if she would be interested in participating in my spotlight post. She had posted on one of the women’s fishing pages about how fishing had saved her life by keeping her active and by giving her some new perspectives in life. When I reachedContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – September”
Wild Woman Spotlight – August
Meet Rocky Kent, a Litigation Paralegal from Colorado with pure, raw passion for the outdoors. The first time I saw her name was with this post on Facebook in one of my favorite groups: I went on my first hunt this past weekend, hog hunting! And it WAS AMAZING! I was the only female atContinue reading “Wild Woman Spotlight – August”
Let the Woods Humble You
There are so many reasons I love being in the woods and on the water. So many, I don’t know that I could put all of them on paper. There’s something though that I rarely hear about when people talk about their experiences in the woods, and I didn’t start to understand it until IContinue reading “Let the Woods Humble You”
When I Fell in Love
I stumbled across a podcast this week on Instagram called Mindful Hunter. I highly recommend listening to his podcast, and following him on Instagram, especially this particular episode. He interviewed a woman from Texas named Lyndsey Kotrla (give her a follow too!). They talked about something briefly that really stuck with me, and that wasContinue reading “When I Fell in Love”
Constructive Criticism or Killing Enthusiasm?
There has been a little grey cloud following me around this week, as a FB user decided to comment on a couple of my posts in a negative way. First I was told that I am not a writer. I am writing to share the joy that I get from doing what I love withContinue reading “Constructive Criticism or Killing Enthusiasm?”
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”
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”
Filling Doe Tags
Anyone who hunts knows that there is some discussion to be had on filling doe tags. I know people who never would pass on a doe if they have the tag, and then I know others who would never shoot a doe, even if they had a tag in their pocket. There are sides toContinue reading “Filling Doe Tags”
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?”
