AK Bear Hunt, By Loni, the Sportsman’s Wife

LoniSomething I don’t tell many people (especially men) is that I have shot a bear.  And tanned it’s hide.  In Alaska.  
 
Girls usually think its weird and it intimidates most guys.  But whatevs…  If your from Alaska, its just another day at the office.  
 
I was digging through my Alaska pictures the other day and came across my black bear hunt pictures.  It was a memorable trip.  A time when I truly fell in love with the rawness of Alaska.  So I thought I would share it with you all.

Tips-and-Tricks

How to catch and cope with, Shad Fever By: Zach Hartman, Owner and Upper Potomac River Guide of Capitol City Fishing

Well, it is late-March, and we know what March is all about right? If you said basketball, then you are probably not a fisherman – not that there’s anything wrong with that – and if you are a fisherman, then you have probably never fished the annual Potomac River shad run. Every year, tidal fishermen delight at the prospect of annual game fish migrations.  It starts with the yellow perch, then the white perch, followed by the Hickory and American shad.

The Tale of “the Sisters McGregor”

mcgregor 1

Merrill and Christie McGregor on Phantom Canyon

We’ve often been referred to as “the Sisters McGregor”. We work in the same professional field, share the same friends and are both avid outdoorswomen. Although we’re 10 years apart, we both have distinct memories of fishing off our grandparents dock in Charleston, camping with our parents and siblings in KY and WI, or hiking with friends across the southeast. 

We’re also pretty inseparable – living together off and on for over 10 years –or at least we were until Christie, the older/wiser one, decided to up and move from South Carolina to Washington DC for a new job (note: the younger sister, Merrill,  is NOT bitter and is DEFINITELY not harboring any resentment against her older sister who left ...
