  • Mother’s Day Woes0

    Bernadette Ulsamer

    I have not had a good track record of celebrating Mother’s Day as a mother. No brunches, or jewelry or flowers for me, which is fine. I’ve never been a big supporter of the “Hallmark” holidays. Don’t get me wrong, I love my mother, and I love showing her how much she means to me.

  • Surprise! Trout Season Opened0

    Ken Hunter

    Yesterday (April 6), I sat down to write a piece on the opening of trout season that would be coming up in a little over a week; well forget that idea since like a lot of other surprised people I just found out that the season opened about an hour ago — that would be

  • Steelhead Fishing0

    Ken Hunter

    Now that winter has made its appearance in central Pennsylvania, even the diehard trout fishermen have shelved their trout tackle until next spring. If you don’t mind a little road trip, however, you can still get in on some fantastic trout fishing; more specifically, I’m talking about steelhead fishing in the Lake Erie tributaries. Several

  • Live By Faith: Rahab the Faithful0

    Tim Hartzell

    The next hero of the faith introduced by the author of the Hebrews is Rahab. Rahab’s story is found in Joshua chapters 2 and 6. Here’s what the Hebrew writer says about this courageous woman: By faith the prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies, was not killed with those who were disobedient. Hebrews 11:31

  • The Roving Sportsman… Tasty Trout0

    Jon Pries

    Having been fortunate enough to not only catch, but also bring back from a recent trip to northern Quebec, several dozen brook trout, I was anxious to see just how good they would taste. The trip itself was very special, requiring 24 hours on the road and then a flight into the lake via floatplane.

  • The Roving Sportsman… Summertime Reading0

    Jon Pries

    With summer well under way and with lots of outside activities to enjoy, little thought is generally given to reading. There are, however, those rainy days that keep us inside and there are times when whiling away the hours while sitting along a stream or a woodsy setting and reading a good book can be

  • First Day Trout Tactics0

    Ken Hunter

    The first day of the regular trout season is Saturday, April 13 with an 8 a.m. starting time and weather permitting I’m sure there will be a good number of anxious fishermen lining the banks of area streams. I’m sure too that there will be a wide variety of baits and lures as well as

  • Floored0

    Melinda Wentzel

    Against all logic and understanding, I tolerated the most hideous-looking carpet known to man for what seemed like an eternity. It stretched an expanse measuring more than 600 square feet from living room to dining room — a wall-to-wall nightmare that everyone knew was pink. Not salmon. Coupled with the abundance of brass and ugly-as-sin

  • Lure Retrieval0

    Ken Hunter

    Some of the best fishing of the year is yet to come this fall and fishing with artificial lures can produce some of the best action. Both trout and a variety of warm water species of fish will be feeding more heavily as the water cools and the winter season approaches and with the multitude

  • It’s Not Fair0

    Ken Hunter

    We seem to be hearing that phrase a lot these days, “It’s not fair.” I even hear that same suggestion in the world of hunting and fishing. Let me explain. I recently read something in an outdoor publication that I find kind of annoying. In a letter to the editor, the writer said it wasn’t

  • April 14 – Trout Opener0

    Ken Hunter

    To be honest, I haven’t fished the opening day of trout season for many years. It wasn’t always that way though; when I was a young fellow in the 60s, I wouldn’t have missed the first day for anything. Most of my first days were spent on Sinnemahoning Creek using Mike’s Lucky Seven salmon eggs.

  • Time to Limber Up That Fly Rod0

    Ken Hunter

    The opening day of trout season is still a month away — April 14th here in our part of the state — and a couple of weeks until the trout opener in the southern part of the state on March 31st. With the openers still that far out, why would I be ready to give

  • Mid March Memories and Traditions0

    Jim Webb

    What a wonderful time of year as the calendar reads the middle of March. Robins can be found abound. It is so great to wake up to the sounds of birds singing in the morning. Don’t get me wrong winter could still bring us some Arctic air but one thing’s for sure, it can’t last

  • Fishing with Mike O’Brien… Quotes Of Angling Humor And Wisdom0

    Mike O'Brien

    “There is an old saying that one can never enter the same river twice. The river is always new; the man is forever changed.”- Mike Crockett and Grant McClintock, Flywater “It is the challenge of the fishing more than it is the catching of the fish.”- Joseph D. Bates, Jr., Atlantic Salmon Flies & Fishing

  • Anglers Resort To Small Flies To Catch Big Fish0

    Mike O'Brien

    Atlantic salmon fishing can hardly be described as predictable. The fish first must arrive. After several years of feeding on the ocean’s bounty, salmon return to their natal river, often to the same spot where they were hatched. This is an incredible feat of navigation, a miracle performed by the smell of the water, which

    New Year’s wishes of health, happiness and prosperity. The year 2015, wow it almost seems like a title for a sci-fi movie. I still catch myself thinking it’s 19 something, let alone we are 15 years into the new millennium. What’s going on in the world today is much different than anyone would have imagined
