Standing up for Shoreline Access

  By Michael Woods   I’ve always loved the beach. Some of my most memorable outdoor experiences as a youth involved fishing for striped bass from the sandy shores of Cape Cod. As time passed, I discovered new and intriguing shoreline pursuits for all seasons of the year. Clamming in the spring, crabbing in the summer, fishing the striper run in autumn and hunting waterfowl and whitetails in the winter are just a few of the activities that keep me coming back to New England’s shores. Easy ...

Montana - squeal on pigs!

Author: Montana BHA
Feral swine (sometimes called wild pigs, wild boars, etc) spell trouble for Montana's wildlife and habitat. They're incredibly destructive, invasive and hard to control. In the 39 states they're established in, they cause some $2.5 BILLION in damages each year. They're also dangerous vectors of more than thirty diseases that pose threats to humans, livestock and wildlife. It's important that we do our part as hunters and conservationists to keep them out of our state. While they're not here ...

A Farewell to Fish

In the summer of that year, we lived in a village near a stream in Idaho where salmon came to spawn. The Valley of the Fish was broad and flat, and high snow-covered mountains rose to the south. The stream wound like a snake through the valley marshes, and the water sparkled in the sun. There were boulders and pebbles in it, and in places, the water moved swiftly, and for these reasons, the fish liked it, and their families had lived there for a long time. There were many salmon in the ...

Colorado Over The Counter (OTC) Unit Elk Hunting

Author: David Lien
It was opening morning of Colorado’s 2nd rifle elk season (Oct. 29 – Nov. 6, 2022) and I was hunting in southwest Colorado’s San Juan Mountains. During September I had the opportunity to do some scouting in the area (on Sept. 19) with my friend, local hunter-conservationist and Colorado BHA Habitat Watch Volunteer Rick Hooley. We subsequently heard one bugling bull and I saw another, posing for photos roadside, the prior evening (see “Elk Hunt Scouting” photos link below). Colorado BHA ...
