There is a rapidly increasing number of our senior citizens that has no recollection whatsoever of the great depression which ran from October 24, 1929 to 1941. And, today, our youngest generation has no firsthand knowledge of the attack on the twin towers on September 11, 2001. These two horrendous events did more in our
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
By Ken Hunter Spring is in the air, and for the turkey hunting enthusiast, that means it’s time to locate some potential gobbler hunting spots. The spring turkey season is set to start statewide on May 2 and run until May 30. A big part of spring gobbler hunting is actually locating good hunting spots
In just over a week, the one-day Pennsylvania Youth Spring Gobbler Hunt will take place – Saturday, April 25th to be exact. On the following Saturday, May 2, our statewide Spring Gobbler Season gets underway. These are the days many of us have been daydreaming about for weeks, so let’s take a look at a

Over the past few weeks, we’ve been exploring the vast number of artificial lures available to today’s bass fishermen; we’ve probed the bottom and worked the mid-depth ranges, so now let’s “scratch the surface.” I know that the phrase “scratch the surface” usually conjures up the thought that we may barely touch on the subject,
There are many joys when it comes to parenthood and I consider myself very fortunate to have a son. Jensen is eleven and we are the best of buds. He is at a great age and I enjoy the many adventures that we share. Jensen makes me proud in a variety of ways. Even now.
Good riddance may be the kindest thing I could say about the month of March as we push its disastrous thirty-one days into our rear-view mirror. What we are collectively enduring has been nothing to fool around about. It seems somewhat ironic that in the face of all this grimness the beginning of April brings
The Commonwealth of PA is now on a temporary lockdown. Well that’s unless you are out buying beer, gathering ammo or playing the daily lottery. There is much debate on how this was actually determined. Governor Tom is faced with a very difficult situation. But what’s considered essential or life sustaining? The Pennsylvania Fish and
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been trying to simplify the vast array of lures available to today’s bass fishermen but the main thing to remember is to have a selection of lures that will cover the bottom, the surface and the mid-depth range. Last week we looked at bottom producing lures and this
