eople of all abilities can go hiking. Go at your own pace and find a trail that matches your physical fitness. Local, state and national parks have mostly flat nature trails that allow you to go at your own pace; even the Grand Canyon, which is known for its steep descents and punishing ascents, has a rim trail that provides an easy walk along the edge, providing amazing views without requiring more than hikers are able. For those who are inclined, you can find mountains to climb, canyons to descend and tricky trails that require more navigation and rock scrambling.

However you choose to hike, Recreation.gov offers ways to take full advantage of the trails while keeping yourself safe and preserving nature.

Fish handling and release guidelines and equipment Content provided by the Missouri Department of Conservation

F

ish handling and release guidelines protect you and your catch. The following will ensure a successful fishing trip and tournament.

Guidelines Choose equipment that will bring fish in with minimal damage

• Use artificial lures over live bait. Fish that hit artificial baits are less likely to be hooked deeply enough to damage vital organs and have a higher survival rate.

• Squeeze hook barbs flat with pliers or file them off. Barbless hooks allow you to unhook fish without causing serious wounds.

• Always carry a hook disgorger or needlenosed pliers. Back the hooks out, if possible.

• Clip the line as close to the hook as possible if the fish is hooked deeply in the gills or stomach. The hook will fall out after a time, with minimal damage to the fish.

• Use a landing net large enough to handle your fish safely.

it from infection and improves survival.

• Hold large fish by the lower jaw with one hand and support the heavy body with the other.

• Grasp fish with teeth across the gill covers.

• Never put your fingers in the eyes or gill sockets.

• Minimize the amount of time a fish is exposed to the air — gently release the fish as soon as possible.

Maintain optimal conditions in holding tanks and live wells

• Provide continuous aeration, cooling the water with ice in the summer, maintaining a 0.5 percent salt solution (1/3 cup noniodized salt per 5 gallons water), and replacing half of the water in your live well every two hours.

• Don’t allow water to drain from a live well when motoring around the lake.

• Don’t put too many fish in your live well.

You should put no more than 3/4 pounds of fish per gallon of water. Most live wells can hold about 11 gallons of water plus 8 pounds of fish.

Angling advice to reduce fish stress

• If you use live bait, set the hook at the first sign of a bite so the fish doesn’t have time to swallow the bait.

• On rod and reel, don’t play a fish any longer than necessary.

• Check setlines frequently to improve survival of released fish, and in the summer keep setlines positioned above the thermocline (the transition zone between surface water and deep water).

Tournaments In addition to fish-handling guidelines listed above, follow these recommendations during tournaments: • Locate the weigh-in site close to the release site and the parking lot or boatmooring area.

• Keep fish in live wells until participants leave their boats.

• Shorten weigh-in lines by using only three to five organizer-provided weigh-in Handle fish carefully baskets. A series of 50-gallon plastic garbage • Wet your hands and any other dry sur- cans may be spaced every 10 feet up to the face a fish may come into contact with. This scales so that baskets of fish can be kept in will protect the fish’s slime coat, which guards the water right up until the actual weigh-in.

6 Brand Ave. Studios | Spring Outdoor Guide | March 24, 2019

The water in these cans must be kept fresh or aerated.

• Provide proper water conditions in the tournament holding tank by using continuous aeration and maintaining recommended temperature and salt levels (see live well recommendations above).

• Choose a release site with relatively cool, clear, deep water.

• Assign people to coordinate fish release.

After the weigh-in, fish should be classified as releasable or non-releasable. Non-releasable are dead, weak, or injured fish. It is better to keep any questionable fish as food than to waste them by returning them to the lake.

• Three to five days after the release, check the release area to remove any dead fish if necessary. The tournament should not be considered over until this has been done.

Equipment You don’t need to spend a lot of money on fancy equipment to go fishing. In fact, the following basic items will equip you nicely for your first outings.

• A good all-round rod-and-reel combination — something that will let you catch fish of all sizes. Ask the clerk for a mediumlight rod from 5 1/2 to 6 1/2 feet long and a matching reel that will handle lines from 4-pound test to 12-pound test. (The “pound test” tells you how strong the line is.)

• Monofilament line, 8-pound test, light blue, clear or green. Check your reel or the instructions that came with it to determine how much 8-pound-test line it will hold.

Usually a 100-yard spool is large enough to fill a medium-light reel.

• Package of hooks, size 6 • A “wheel” of split shot in assorted sizes • One package of three bell sinkers, 1/2ounce

• A small plastic tackle box • Two or three bobbers • Stringer • Landing net (optional, unless you’re fishing for trout) • A Missouri fishing permit (If you are between the age of 16 and 64 or are a nonresident) and a trout permit if your target is trout, except in the state’s four trout parks, where you will need a daily permit.

Learn more about permits at huntfish.mdc. mo.gov/permits.

Other useful items

• Pair of needle-nose pliers • Pair of fingernail clippers • Cooler or bucket (also bring ice to keep your catch cool if fishing in warm months) Choosing a rod-and-reel that works for you Before buying the rod-and-reel, consider the type you would feel most comfortable using. With an open-face spinning reel, the rod is held in the right hand with the reel on the underside for both casting and retrieving. Right-handed anglers reel with their left hand; however, most open face reels can be set up to reel with either hand. Closed face reels with levers are also held in the same underside position. With a push-button, closed-face spinning reel, the rod is held reel up. Cast with the rod in the right hand and switch the rod to the left hand before retrieving. Reel with the right hand.

Seven tips for keeping mosquitoes at bay when you’re camping

GREEN SHOOT MEDIA

Content provided by Newspaper Toolbox

We all love camping. Mosquitoes, not so much! Do you think that you can’t have one without the other? Well, these tips will help you avoid being attacked by a horde of bloodthirsty insects so that you can finally enjoy your time in the great outdoors.

1. Be sure there aren’t any holes or tears in your tent’s fabric, and keep it zipped shut at all times.

2. Choose a campsite surrounded by deciduous trees rather than conifers.

3. Pitch your tent in an area that has a nice breeze and is far away from any standing water, electrical posts and toilets.

4. Avoid entering and leaving your tent frequently and don’t leave its flap unzipped unless it’s really necessary — you should also take off your shoes and turn off your flashlight before entering the tent (you can place a

tarp near the entrance for your shoes).

5. Light a fire before the sun sets (the smoke will chase away the mosquitoes).

6. Arm yourself with a good bug spray or other insect-repellent product.

7. Wear long shirts and pants in light colors.

How to organize your cooler for camping Content provided by Newspaper Toolbox

So, you’re going camping for two or three days. Here are a few smart organization tips to make the most out of your cooler space.

First, plan all the meals you’ll be making.

That way you’ll only have to bring the food that you need. About 20 percent of the content of your cooler should consist of frozen products (cartons of juice, pasta sauce, etc.).

These items will also act as ice blocks, helping to keep your other items chilled. If you need another way to keep your items cold, opt for ice packs rather than real ice. They’re more effective and won’t get your items wet as they warm up.

At least one hour before filling the cooler, use ice packs to get the cooler itself really cold. Pre-cooling your cooler will help food stay fresher for longer. For the same reason, only put in items that actually need to be refrigerated. It’s usually best to avoid dairy products (except hard cheeses) and fresh meats (opt instead for cooked meats).

Finally, place your items into the cooler in the order in which they’ll be eaten. In other words, have what you’ll be eating last at the bottom of the container. Put perishable foods

Pitch a Tent

Thinking about going camping? Whether it’s the thought of cooking over a fire, falling asleep to the sound of the wind or a nearby stream or waking up to a beautiful sunrise, camping is a fun way to spend more time in nature that can help you feel better, de-stress and enjoy time with your family and friends.

amping can be simple. With a little planning and the right gear, you’re ready to hit the local campsites and pitch the tent. Gizmodo offered tips to have a fun and safe camping trip that doesn’t end in a rain-flooded tent.

as close as possible to frozen items, and place ice packs toward the top of the cooler (cold falls while heat rises). Of course, to keep your items cold for as long as possible, open the cooler only when necessary.

At the end of the season, clean your cooler from top to bottom and don’t close it completely. That way, you’ll prevent bad odors from developing.

Find the Right Sleeping Bag Sleeping bags with cartoon characters are great for indoor slumber parties, but for camping when it’s going to get at all chilly, invest in heavier bags. Unless you’re planning a very cold trip, a sleeping bag that rates at 20 degrees Fahrenheit should be warm enough.

Sleeping mats or hammocks can make a world of difference, both in comfort and in staying warm at night. You can get mats that roll up, similar to a yoga mat, air mattresses or hammocks, which offer different levels of removal from the cold, hard ground. If you take an air mattress, make sure to bring a pump as well.

charcoal or wood and kindling to start a fire. You can have traditional food from the grill or cook many of the same foods on a stick over a fire.

You can also use the coals to cook, either with a Dutch oven or with foil dinners. S’mores are a must. Keep food and anything that smells like food locked in the car when you’re not eating so you don’t entice animals to your campsite.

Gimme Shelter The first rule of thumb for a tent: one listed as sleeping six people will not sleep six adults.

Have a tent that can fit at least one person more than the number of people on your trip.

Gizmodo’s camping expert recommended a dome-style tent with flexible poles. Putting a tarp under the tent can help some with warmth and also keep water away from your tent.

Must-have items: • Insect repellent • Lantern, flashlight, extra batteries, headlamp • Water bucket (to douse the fire) • Drinking water • Rain gear Cooking • Warm clothes Many campsites have grills or fire pits. Know • Soap, hand towel what you’re getting so you can have either

SUCCESSFUL SPRING TURKEY HUNT Content provided by the Missouri Department of Conservation

Consider these tips for a successful spring turkey hunt.

Time of Day — Many hunters are in the woods before dawn, and most turkeys are killed before 8 a.m. However, turkey hunting after 8 a.m. can be rewarding. Most people leave the woods by 10 a.m. If you have the patience to stay late, there are fewer hunters in the woods competing for available birds.

Location — It is important to start your hunt from a good location. Be careful not to hide too well. You want to be able to see in every direction in order to spot approaching hunters. Consider any movement in the woods to be another hunter until you can positively identify the object.

Attracting a Bird — Hooting like a barred owl or cawing like a crow usually encourages a turkey to gobble, and are preferred ways to locate the birds early in the morning. Hooting and cawing may get him to gobble without making him look for you.

Various Calls — Variations of the yelp are the most frequently used calls. Most spring turkey hunters yelp from three to seven times — it’s not critical how many times, but rhythm is important. It really does not matter whether you are raspy or smooth, or using friction or diaphragm calls. Pre-recorded tapes of turkey calls can help you learn the various calls and associated rhythms.

• Tree yelp— a very soft yelp that should be used when the gobbler is still on the roost. Turkeys hear much better than humans. Before the hen comes off the roost, she calls softly. After you get in position, try giving a tree yelp while the gobbler is still on the roost.

• Cluck —Turkeys frequently cluck while feeding and moving around undisturbed. You can make the clucking sound on any of the calls.

This is also one of the easiest calls to learn.

• Cackle — is a series of excited clucks that hens sometimes make as they fly down from the roost. The call gets faster and faster as she pulls off the limb and flies to the ground, then tapers off and slows down as she lands.

• Cutting — is a sound turkeys make that is similar to the cackle. Cutting consists of excited, fast, short, sharp clucks and is frequently made by adult hens.

• Purr — is the contented, soft call of the hen. Purring and clucking are the calls that will bring turkeys in the last few yards.

• Putt — is a sound both sexes make, typically consisting of a series of hard, short, loud clucks, which serves as the alarm call.

• Whine — is a soft, high-pitched, drawnout call of the hen, usually used in combination with putts and clucks.

• Gobble — can be imitated with your voice, a box call, a diaphragm call or a shaker-type of call designed specifically for gobbling. Beware of gobbling during legal shooting hours, because you might attract other hunters.

• Spit and drum (or thrum) — is done while displaying for the hen. The drum sounds like a giant rubber band vibrating in the woods. It is a very soft call. If the drumming gobbler is hidden by brush, it can be difficult to pinpoint his location.

• Lost call or assembly call —is a series of pleading yelps that tend to get louder and more pleading.

• Kee-kee —is the whistle of a young turkey.

The kee-kee run is the voice of a young turkey changing from a whistle to a yelp and is usually heard in the fall.

It takes Practice! Sometimes you can use every call in the book and you still have trouble getting the gobbler to come in those last few critical yards. Possible reasons and solutions: • A physical barrier, such as a woven-wire fence between you and the turkey or another

10 Brand Ave. Studios | Spring Outdoor Guide | March 24, 2019

hunter or predator may have caused him to abandon you for the moment.

• You may have called too loudly. Generally, turkeys only call loud enough to be heard by another turkey. When your call is too loud, the gobbler assumes the hen is close and he begins to strut and display.

• Try turning your head to project the call behind you and the gobbler may move closer.

• Be patient, you may be able to wait him out. If the gobbler has hens with him, eventually the hens may leave and your periodic calling will start working on the gobbler’s mating urges.

• How often and how loud you want to call varies with the situation and will come naturally to you with more experience.

• Keep the turkey interested. If he loses interest, he may move out of the area or go to another hen. Remember, the gobbler responds to stimuli and to lure him in, you must emit the strongest, most seductive stimulus while interacting with him.

EQUIPMENT — Proper equipment can make the difference between an enjoyable or miserable hunt. A good idea is to develop a checklist, especially if you are traveling a great distance to hunt. Be prepared for the unexpected.

Shotgun Selection — A 12-gauge shotgun is the standard among turkey hunters. Smaller

gauges, particularly 20 gauges, are a great choice for young hunters.

• Shooting at a turkey at more than 40 yards is not recommended, regardless of which gauge shotgun is used.

• Your choice of choke may make the difference between a clean kill and a crippled bird.

The most popular is an extra-full choke, which gives the tightest pattern. A tight pattern is important in order to strike the vital head-andneck area.

• Many hunters now use shorter-barreled shotguns, which are lighter and easier to maneuver. The most common shot sizes are No. 4, 5, and 6. Pattern your gun with several sizes and select the load and shot size that pattern best. Missouri regulations prohibit the use of shot size larger than No. 4 for turkey hunting.

Bow hunting — Bow hunting for turkeys is challenging. Use a broadhead design that inhibits full penetration, which generates more impact and kills a turkey more quickly.

Turkey calls — Another important piece of equipment is a turkey call. There are a variety of calls on the market but basically they fall into two categories–friction calls and air-operated calls. Friction calls are probably the easiest to use. Two surfaces are rubbed together, creating friction that produces sound. Box and slate calls are examples of friction calls. Air-operated calls create sound when air is passed through or over the call. The three basic air-operated calls are the yelper, the tube call and the diaphragm call. All of these calls require practice to become proficient. Your best bet is learning from an experienced caller and from the turkey. Audio and video tapes may also be helpful.

General Equipment — Other equipment you may need for the hunt includes: a knife, compass, topographic maps, rope, first-aid kit, insect repellent, rain gear, camera and your turkey-hunting permit. Camouflage clothing, including hat, gloves, face paint or mask, can be helpful and are considered essential by some hunters. A blaze-orange hat or vest is recommended when moving in the woods, and another vest or orange sash is suggested for wrapping your turkey when carrying it out of the woods.

Physical Preparation — One other important consideration before the hunt is yourself. Missouri turkey hunting can be physically demanding. Prepare yourself for the long walks, steep hills and adverse weather conditions. Pre-hunt scouting will help you get into shape.

YOU-POWERED WATERCRAFT For some people, there’s nothing like the thrill of taking on rapids on a kayak that skims the top of the water or powering a canoe through a river. Kayaks and canoes are less expensive to rent, own and maintain, and work in rivers large and small as well as lakes.

ll boaters should wear life jackets. Be aware of safety hazards and water depths and pay attention to the weather; big winds can produce waves that can swamp a small watercraft.

Recreational Kayaks Kayaks are lighter, smaller, and easier to maneuver than other types of boats. They can hold one to two passengers, depending on size.

According to The Active Times, recreational kayaks are great for beginners or for people going boating on fairly calm waters and for short trips. These boats, usually 10 to 12 feet long, provide extra stability and are lighter in weight, making transporting them easier.

They’re also the most affordable of boats. Recreational kayaks are not good for long trips, as they don’t have much room for supplies, nor are they good in fast-moving rivers.

You can also get inflatable kayaks or siton-top kayaks, which are stable, wider and good for children.

RESULTS SO SMOOTH, YOUR CARPET WILL BE JEALOUS. No other mower can match the smooth, even cut of a Grasshopper zero-turn mower. In fact, very few carpets can either. Which is why Grasshopper mowers remain a top choice among turf care professionals.

Sea Kayaks Sea kayaks have more room than recreational kayaks and are made for more efficient paddling, The Active Times says. They’re longer — between 12 and 16 feet — and have lifted hulls, which makes them quicker and better in rapids. Many also have a rudder or skeg; the rudder makes the kayak easier to maneuver, and the skeg helps it stay on course.

Canoes According to Canoe & Kayak, canoes range from solo whitewater canoes that are less than 10 feet long and a four-person craft that stretches to 23 feet in length, which can carry a lot of gear but isn’t going to be as easy to maneuver, either on the water or getting into or out of your vehicle. Canoes are typically 33-40 inches wide; wider canoes are more stable but less efficient. Many recreational waterways offer canoe rentals, which let you test out your canoeing skills. If you want to buy your own, consider how and where you’re most likely to use it, keeping in mind that you’re more likely to use a boat in waterways that are an hour or two from your home, experts told Canoe & Kayak.
