REASON BEYOND

I was recently in a pinch. I left my socks at home and needed a pair to get me through the day. As luck would have it, I happened by Target, ducked in, and found many socks to choose from. The colors were adequate. The cotton/ poly blend was acceptable. The price was reasonable. One thing did stick out. These socks were “One Size Fits All”.

Arrowhead Oddities

So, after contemplating the eternal for the last two weekends (in a column, and for those of you who didn’t read the column, a sermon), we switch to the oddities of life near 61. I am compelled to do this because Rob Perez has not covered this topic in the two years we have overlapped.

Outdoors

with Fly fishing for Steelhead The steelhead fishing fly which has come to be called the Intruder is a recent development from the past ten to fifteen years, developed on the great rivers of the steelhead's native lower US range – California, Oregon, and Washington - and the Great Lakes tributaries where steelhead have been introduced and now spawn and reproduce. With the Intruder, two important developments have come together: an oversized profile is created without creating a heavy, waterlogged fly; and a single stinger hook is strung behind a bare shank, at a distance that ensures the fly's long, undulating profile materials do not get fouled in the hook.

Wellness

What do you value? Values – so much is encapsulated within this single word. This week, I invite you to take a moment to step back and think about your values.

Conservation Officer Tales

Although the Cook County News-Herald knows that the majority of sportsmen and women are law-abiding folks, there are a few that run afoul of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Conservation Officers. Periodically, the DNR provides a report of some of the miscreants the Conservation Officers (CO) have encountered. The News-Herald shares these stories as a reminder to all to be safe and to follow the rules!
