The Vietnam War was a conflict marked by dense jungles, relentless heat, and an enemy that often seemed to vanish into the wilderness. But for some U.S. soldiers, there were moments when the enemy appeared to be something altogether different.

There’s an almost magical window when flounder fishing turns downright electric—and for me, it’s during tropical‑storm tides. Believe it or not, on three different occasions, I’ve experienced the best flounder fishing of my life—all while storm‑tides muddied the bays and

When audiences think of Jaws, one character looms as large as the shark itself: Quint-the grizzled fisherman with a vendetta. His raspy sea songs, harpoon in hand, and final showdown with the great white became a part of pop culture.

I’M JUST AN EVERYDAY public-land hunter here in Central Texas, and I’ve got to say the news about that sneaky attempt to sell off millions of acres of public land hit me hard. We don’t have much public ground in Texas to begin with. If you don’t have a lease, you’re already limited. Losing even a sliver of what little we have left would box out folks like me completely.

SOUTH TEXAS IS A TRUE outdoorsman’s paradise, especially during the late summer and beginning of fall. This is my favorite time of year and favorite few fishing months to chase any and everything, especially big snook and tarpon. Mornings consisting of yellow-finned snook inhaling topwaters and silver gilded tarpon flying out of the water to afternoons hunting white winged dove over vast fields of sunflowers are hard to beat…

GIVE THEM COVER and bass will come. I thought about the connection pretty often while watching some of the nation’s top pros pick apart the shallows during Bassmaster Live coverage of the Elite Series event held earlier this month on the Sabine River in Orange. Nothing was off limits as the anglers plied the cover-rich river system for some of the tiniest bass anyone saw brought to the scales in a big league fishing tournament all season long…

LAST JUNE, A LITTLE-NOTICED PROVISION buried deep in a federal budget reconciliation package set off alarm bells across the outdoor community. Tucked away in the lengthy legislative text was a proposal to sell or transfer between 2 and 3 million acres of public land currently overseen by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service. Had the measure passed, it would have represented one of the largest reductions in federally managed land access in decades…

“COMING LEFT!” Seven or eight mourning doves within twenty yards, I shouldered my Mossberg 410-gauge swung past the lead bird and pulled the trigger. Down it went! Two dove wing beats later I swung through a second dove, pulled the trigger on the bottom barrel. “Gracious! Didn’t think you even knew what a shotgun was, nor how to shoot one!” I smiled and pretended like it happened every time I pulled a shotgun’s trigger…

LET’S FACE IT. When it comes to big water fishing holes, there just aren’t many secrets anymore. Much the same can be said for duck and dove hunting sweet spots on public hunting lands. One careless social media post or slip of the tongue amongst big ears these days is all it takes to call in the troops and ruin a great hunting spot that may have taken years to locate…
