It's official—I was fortunate enough to draw a doe tag for Wildlife Management Unit 58 this year.
I know these tags are limited, so I feel very thankful for the opportunity. Regulated hunting plays an important role in wildlife conservation by helping maintain healthy deer populations and supporting balanced ecosystems for future generations.
I'm looking forward to spending time in God's creation, making memories, and doing my part as an ethical hunter and conservationist.
Wishing everyone a safe, successful, and enjoyable hunting season. Good luck to all who were fortunate enough to draw a tag! 🦌

My son and his friend were having a bonfire in the backyard at night. They live in Prince Edward County. All of a sudden they heard an animal screaming. A sound neither of them had heard before. When they turned on their cell phone flashlights they could see two eyes that were illuminated from a field beside them. At one point the eyes seemed like they were 6 or 7 feet tall. After my son looked online he determined it was a Cougar. He played the sound for me to hear it which I had never heard before. It is very eerie. We called the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources, but they said they don't take Cougar sightings even though the web says they do.
Cougars (mountain lions) are confirmed to exist in Ontario, though they are highly elusive and rarely seen.

It was an excellent day for fishing, despite not catching any walleye. However, my son did successfully reel in a sizable bass. The season opener is just ten days away. 🎣🐟🌞
Consider these two techniques:
Target Shallows & Spawning Bays: During the early season, bass frequently inhabit areas near their spawning beds, sheltered shallow bays, rocky points, and w**d flats, which tend to warm more quickly.
Cover Ground: If you are not experiencing bites, avoid remaining in a single location. Efficiently cover the water to locate active fish.

Just received my 10 year service diploma for training safe and responsible hunters in Ontatio. Thanks to Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters for supporting me and all the students who have made it personally satisfying.

Great organization CSSA to be a member of.
The Canadian Shooting Sports Association stands with responsible, law-abiding firearm owners across the country.
This week, Ontario Premier Doug Ford said it best:
“Gun owners, protect your guns. Simple as that. Don’t ever give them away.”
We appreciate Premier Ford’s support for our community and his recognition of the importance of protecting law-abiding fi****ms owners. But we believe Ontario can go even further. Saskatchewan has already taken concrete steps to stand up for its responsible gun owners — and we urge Premier Ford to follow that example and take real action to protect our rights in Ontario.
Let’s keep advocating for fair policies that target crime, not honest Canadians. What are your thoughts? Share them below!

Hunting is about so much more than harvesting game. It teaches patience, responsibility, respect for nature, and appreciation for God’s creation. It provides healthy food for families, supports wildlife conservation through licensing and habitat programs, and creates unforgettable memories passed down through generations.
For many of us, time in the woods is where we find peace, fellowship, and a deeper connection with the outdoors. Hunting isn’t just a sport — it’s tradition, stewardship, and a way of life. 🍁🦌
