Even if May just finally feels like spring for many of us, in most years by the time May rolls around, many anglers have already enjoyed a few outings wetting a line.

NDGF conducts midwinter bald eagle assessment
Penning an outdoors column each week may seem daunting to some, but even with 52 opportunities in a given calendar year to generate topics and information to pass along, at times I actually wish I had more time and room.

ND legislation progression
The legislative process in North Dakota only takes place every two years. With that in mind, all hunters, anglers, trappers and anyone else who spends time outdoors, has an opportunity to engage in the process now, rather than later this year after bills become law and changes in how you spend time outdoors are already implemented.

Wildlife’s constant struggle in winter

Reflecting on the previous year
As the inevitable change of calendars from 2012 to 2013 is upon us, I’ll end the year in traditional fashion with a look back at the past 12 months from an outdoors perspective.

Success compared to quality
Quality and success are two of the more difficult terms with which fisheries and wildlife managers struggle. In fact, many hunters and anglers would probably nod in agreement that defining quality and success is about as easy as explaining a normal weather pattern.

Calender may change, season stays open
October is a sort of early Christmas present for those of us who like to spend as much time as possible on the outside of the window. Hunting seasons for just about everything are open, and fall fishing can be just as hot as summer, but without humidity and mosquitoes.

Leier: Deer numbers are down, applicants also down
As a game warden and then an outreach biologist serving North Dakota’s most populated county and two of the five largest cities over the past 15 years, fall hunting seasons keep me hopping. From answering questions and taking care of licensing issues, especially as deer season approaches, I sometimes feel like an accountant during tax season.

If you hunt or fish, chances are you take pictures of your catch or bag. It’s easy these days because small cameras or mobile phones capable of taking photos and video are convenient to bring along, and the automatic settings are almost fool-proof.

Getting into hunting shape for fall
With the close of summer, you’ll notice a swing from fishing rods to shotguns, when, for the next two months, every day is one day closer to the next hunting season. For many, it’s a seamless and welcome transition, even if the tradeoff means we’re one step closer to winter.

PLOTS tied up in CRP
Throughout the years I’ve been writing, I’ve continued to highlight the Conservation Reserve Program, and for good reason. It’s not by sheer accident that North Dakota’s wildlife populations have experienced a contemporary revival that rivals most hunters’ recollections of “the good old days.”
