As the weather starts to break and winter becomes visible in the rear-view mirror, anglers turn their thoughts to the next fishing season. For most of us, that means spring, ice-out panfish.
Although I always find it hard to put away my ice fishing gear, I do relish the days when I can get the boat in the water and search for spring panfish.
I have been an avid waterfowl hunter for more than 50 years. The one fact I have learned again and again is that snow goose hunting is an ever evolving sport that takes extensive planning and careful execution.
