Asian Carp Are Causing Huge Problems

Asian Carp are native to Asia but have been introduced in many other areas as a food fish. In the US they escaped and are now widespread in all of the Mississippi River drainage. There is fear they will get into the Great Lakes.

These carp eat huge amounts of plankton and remove this critical food from the food chain, hurting all native species. They also take food from native filter feeders like paddlefish. Growing up to 100 pounds and 40 inches long, they can eat up to 40 percent of their body weight. They also jump when frightened, so when a boat passes they may jump up and hit boaters and skiers. Some have been injured and a few killed.

Review: Remington Great American Bird Hunt for Wii Bird Hunting Game

Just in time for the holidays, here's a review of a bird "hunting" game which you may - or may not - want to buy for that special sportsman on your Christmas list. It provides lots of action and a good variety of game, doesn't represent hunting very much at all, and can be fun to play with friends. All in all, not a bad way to spend some time (I've certainly done worse), but is it worth the $30 price tag? Read the review to find out what I think.

Paying My Dues

A few years ago (time flies!), I wrote this tale about a beautiful morning of deer hunting, what led up to it, and what it brought to me. I had surely put in my time... now, was it going to pay off?
