Successful Deer Hunters Never Give Up | Maine Outdoor...

Maine Outdoor Enthusiast ·

2024/07/18

I recently spent a good deal of time digitizing a lot of our old hunting photos and while I was doing that (and cross referencing with corresponding journal entries) I noticed a common theme. Most successful hunts involved committed determination and the unwillingness to give up. Regardless of the modality that was used to harvest the deer, the greatest influence on success (in my opinion) is to never give up. So this week, we decided to sit down and discuss some past hunts and why never giving up

When Right Is Wrong And Wrong Is Right | Maine...

2024/06/24

When right is wrong and wrong is right…tends to be the way of the world these days. When it comes to fishing and hunting, much of the same can be observed. As we gain experience via the methods we choose to pursue our query, it can be easy to start thinking our way of doing things is the “right” way. While yes, there are definitely absolute rights in this world, the methods by which we choose to hunt or fish are not confined to such “laws” as long as they are both ethical and legal. When someone

Predicting Good Hunting & Fishing // Maine Outdoor...

2024/05/22

This week we sit down and discuss some recent fishing trips and some of the factors that influence success both on the water and in the deer woods. Have you ever heard of the solunar theory? Or how about those calendars that indicate the “good days” to be out fishing are hunting. Yes, most of us have seen them. However, I’ve personally never given much thought to charts that “predict” good hunting and fishing. I feel any day I have a chance to get out hunting or fishing is a good time to go😁. So,

FoMO (fear of missing out) And The Search To Belong |...

Maine Outdoor Enthusiast ·

2024/05/07

This week we piggyback off of our last episode in regard to the growing effects of FoMO (fear of missing out), how it has been amplified by social media and its effects on the outdoorsman. FoMO has always been a thing (we just didn’t have a term for it years ago) and while a little bit of FoMO might be a good motivator for some; too much can have negative effects on our health. As the saying goes, a little bit goes a long way😉. Enjoy! #outdoors #fearofmissingout #maineoutdoors Contact:

A Great Winter For The Deer, Not For The Sportsman |...

Maine Outdoor Enthusiast ·

2024/02/20

The mild winter continues. This is great for the deer herd, but not so great for the winter sports enthusiast. Little snow and poor ice conditions are frustrating a lot of those who enjoy the outdoors. In this episode, we discuss northern Maine's ice conditions, how the ice fishing has been and then we delve into Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD). Of interest to us, we compare and contrast CWD to some common human diseases which helps characterize exactly what CWD is. Enjoy! Dawn of American Deer

The Key To An Abundant Deer Herd Is...? | Maine...

Maine Outdoor Enthusiast ·

2024/01/30

This week we discuss our recent trip to the Long Lake Ice Fishing Derby and our thoughts on a deer management issue in northern Wisconsin. Years ago, northern Maine was confronted with a decimated deer herd due to a multitude of factors. Wisconsin appears to have a very similar situation to Maine's with Wisconsin IFW responding in much of the same way Maine did. The question is...will it work? Will Wisconsin correct the course or are their hands tied with limited effective solutions at their

2024/01/15

Feeding deer in northern Maine is becoming common place. Winters are long and hard, coupled with predation and loss of wintering habitat...sometimes the herd needs all the help they can get. However, if supplemental feeding is done incorrectly, it can actually cause more harm than good. Follow along as we discuss when, where, why and how you should go about feeding deer in the winter and why sometimes not feeding them at all may be the better option.

2023/11/05

While the first week of Maine's 2023 deer season got off to a warm start, snow was soon to be found just a couple days into the season. One thing I like to say is snow is a game changer...and the game definitely changed Wednesday. Listen to how we managed to locate a nice buck which allowed me to bag one of the largest bucks I've shot to date. It turned into a tumultuous 3 day hunt but was worth it in the end. Enjoy!#deerhunting #whitetaildeer #maine
