A Sunset man was issued citations after allegedly killing a black bear sow and its cub during a Nov. 27 hunt on Red River Wildlife Management Area. The man faces jail time and more than $20,000 in fines. […]
Every year I am amazed at how a deer seems to know what type of nutrition he needs at certain times of the year. It seems like flipping the light switch off: The deer just stopped eating rice bran and other high-protein feeds the first weekend of November from the Felicianas and north into Mississippi (Interestingly, it seems like the deer near the flooded river and south around Mount Pleasant and Baton Rouge are still eating the bran/protein).

I took vacation Thanksgiving week to catch up on some chores and, of course, make a few duck hunts! I went out with my son Monday (Nov. 23), and the very high tide from the Saturday storm put water over the transom of my boat. […]
When Captain Marty LaCoste skirted Lake Mechant, I had to wonder what was going on. […]
I sit here on Thanksgiving morning giving thanks to my Lord Jesus Christ for all he has blessed me with: my precious family, friends, job and country. […]
I mentioned that I would be hunting the hardwood drains in Clinton during the primitive season because we had found a fairly decent acorn crop – white oaks, water oaks and cherry bark acorns. […]

Dear Capt. Paul:
I’m hoping to buy a houseboat in Lafitte, close to Joe’s Landing, across from Cochiara’s Marina, and moving it to Lake Maurpas close to the Amite River. […]
The words “I didn’t think that anything so ugly could ever win an award” really caught my attention. […]
Kudos to the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission. […]
I like fishing in December with football games on TV, waterfowl and deer seasons taking place and most of Louisiana’s lakes clear of fishermen. […]
Dave Moreland holds undergraduate and master’s degrees in biology, and spent 30 years working with the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries. After serving 15 years in the field, Moreland became the state’s Deer Program manager in 1992. […]
Think of this brand-new jig as a bass fisherman’s dream version of an all-terrain vehicle. It’s an artificial lure that acts alive and apparently looks delicious to bass, fished shallow or deep, around rocks or wood and anything else they tend to hang out on. […]
