The Pennsylvania Game Commission reported results from the 2021-22 deer seasons, which ended in January. Hunters harvested an estimated 376,810 white-tailed deer. The statewide buck harvest was estimated at 145,320 and the antlerless harvest at 231,490. That take, overall, is down about 13 percent compared to 2020-21, when hunters recorded the largest deer harvest in 16 years, harvesting an estimated 435,180 deer. It is, however, similar to the estimated statewide deer harvests during the 2018-19 and 2019-20 seasons. That’s not cause for concer...
"Let's get going, Rich," Dad urged. "We want to get to the creek before 5 a.m.," he said on the opening day of trout season when I was about 10 years old. (I'm 72 now.) "The fish bite best for the first hour." Though it was dark when we arrived, quite a few anglers had already staked out spots along the creek. Dad and I walked downstream, found a pool, and rigged up. We had dug our worms prior to the season and had stored them in a container filled with Buss Bedding, which kept them healthy. At...

A new champion was crowned in 2022 as the Hollidaysburg Golden Tigers took home the gold. Previous champions in the tournament included Holy Trinity (Bishop Guilfoyle) in...
We all know that March progresses forward in fits and starts. We might enjoy a day or two of nice weather that is followed by several with nasty rain or snow and howling winds. This makes it tough to experience consistency in the outdoors. My favorite activities in March are listening for gobblers at daybreak and later fishing one of the specially regulated trout streams that are open to fishing prior to the opening day of the regular season. Some mornings I might hear excited gobbling from the...

In 2019 the Pennsylvania Game Commission (PGC) shifted the opening day of rifle deer season from the Monday following Thanksgiving to the Saturday following Thanksgiving. PGC spokesmen told us that this would allow more people to participate, workers who are off work on Saturdays and students whose Saturdays are free. Some hunters favored the move to Saturday, while others strenuously opposed it. However, the PGC did not have any data to support which position most sportsmen favored. So, the...

Except for die-hard ice fishermen, most sportsmen didn't have much to do this winter, especially after the six inches of snow in late January compacted into a thick sheet of ice. This made walking in the woods dangerous, and most sportsmen were not foolish enough to risk bad falls on the ice. A couple of guys who had trail cameras set out told me that deer fared pretty well for the most part. Unfortunately, so did coyotes. Now that March has begun and meteorological spring has arrived (according...

The Pennsylvania Game Commission (PGC) likes to take credit for the harvest of trophy bucks in the state, telling us its deer management program is responsible for increasing the number of big bucks. However, the PGC's program is only indirectly responsible for large bucks harvested in Pennsylvania -- and certainly not in the way the PGC would have us believe. The February issue of the PGC's magazine, "Pennsylvania Game News," points out what has occurred. The articles in the magazine discuss...
