Get the camera!

After my last blog post suggesting everyone get a quality, fish-friendly, catch-and-release, landing net, http://outdoornebraska.ne.gov/blogs/2011/11/net/ , let me crawl up on another soap-box for a little bit and make another suggestion. . . . This week has been the rifle deer season in Nebraska.  I have looked at dozens of …

Get the net!

Whether you like it or not, catch and release is a reality on most waters.  In some cases fish must be released in order to comply with regulations while in other cases anglers voluntarily choose to release some if not most of the fish they catch.  Of course catch & …

Holiday Tackle Box

I have mentioned “Recycled Fish” here on my blog before, http://www.recycledfish.org/ .  They are a great organization promoting not just catch & release but a lifestyle of stewardship.  They have a lot of connections to Nebraska; Teeg Stouffer, their executive director and founder, now lives here in Nebraska and a …

30-point Buck

Tomorrow is the opening of Nebraska’s 2011 rifle deer season.  In honor of that event . . . I in no way condone the bad, dangerous, or unethical behavior mentioned in the song.  But, it is kind of funny and well, it is Friday, lighten up. Have a great weekend, …

Water Wars

I know nobody will listen or take this seriously, especially after all of the flooding we have experienced this year.  It happens every time we come out of a drought cycle and enter a wet cycle. . . but, I will continue to “preach” that water is going to be …

Fishing Animals

My boss was talking this week about his dog and how much that dog likes to fish.  I have ice-fished with the two of them before and can tell you that if his dog hear’s a fish splashing in your ice hole she will come a-running and then will have …

Another Exceptional Fish

I have teased some that I had news of another unusual state record fish, so I better come clean and tell the story. Three weeks ago I blogged about a couple of new state record fish that had been caught from the Missouri River in northeast Nebraska,  http://outdoornebraska.ne.gov/blogs/2011/10/stop-presses-big-huge-fish/.  One of …

Some odds and ends, and Happy Halloween!

I still have a ton of things to blog about, let me just throw out a few odds and ends here today and finish with a Halloween twist. Regional Champs First of all, a week ago I told you about Adam Diehl and Drew Bailey from Lincoln County who went …

Wow, look at that!

In case you have not figured it out by now, I am very serious about my fishing–I fish hard, I am out there to catch fish, big fish.  One of the side benefits of all the time spent on the water or in the field is getting to see and …
