Fishing Secondary Points for Summertime Bass

The first place I’d look for bass this time of year, anywhere in the country, is on secondary points. Bass move onto and off of secondary points, and I like to try to catch bass coming to me from both directions – deep water and shallow water.

Rewards of Managing Land for Wildlife as a GameKeeper

I took a nice buck with my bow last season that would score about 135 inches. The buck came in to within 15 yards of my stand. That’s the first deer we’ve harvested on property.

Manage Invasive Plants for a Variety of Wildlife

Our section of Indiana has quite a bit of bush honeysuckle and wintercreeper – both invasive species.

Honeysuckle isn’t a bad plant, until it becomes so thick that animals can’t move through it. It does have some value for wildlife; however, it’s a very aggressive growing plant that can

GameKeeper Quick Tip: Managing Your Bass Pond

For a recreational bass fishing pond to reach its full potential and maintain that peak, it must be managed throughout the year. One major component of managing a fish pond is controlling the fish population.
