If you are seeking a new lake vacation destination this year, in any season, we highly recommend Norfork Lake in the Arkansas Ozarks. Rocking Chair Resort is in the Twin Lakes region of the Arkansas Ozarks, about 35 minutes from Bull Shoals Lake and the White River. Lake Norfork is one of the cleanest, clearest lakes in the lower 48 states and is renowned for its bass and crappie fishing. Fed by mountain streams and cool refreshing springs, its sparkling waters reflect emerald green from the Ozark forests along its 550-mile shoreline. The moderate temperatures of the Arkansas Ozarks allow yearround action, from fishing to water sports. If you need a break from the rat-race, no need to wait for spring - come on down any time of the year.

Spring, summer, fall, or winter.

9 Tips for Training Your Hunting Dog FROM THE IOWA DNR WEBSITE If you’ve brought home a new puppy this year or want to teach some new skills to your hunting companion, check out these tips on training dogs for hunting. While there will always be variables based on the breed of dog, type of hunting and personal preference, these basics should help you prepare for a fun hunting season with your canine partner.

Get in the field – a lot.

The best learning for a hunting dog is by doing. Get your new dog on as many birds as possible their first season. Expose new dogs – in a comfortable setting – to as many sights, sounds, and smells as possible for the first few months, so they won’t be scared of those situations in the future.

Be consistent but not harsh.

When you give your dog a command, give praise when they follow through. If not, make them follow the command – too much leeway will only make training harder – but don’t be too harsh. Be patient but persistent.

Keep it real (and interesting).

Puppies Start with the basics.

Once your puppy is acclimated to its new home, start training by keeping it simple before moving on to more advanced hunting training – think sit, come, stay, heel. Don’t overdo it – at first, keep training sessions under 10 minutes and just a few times a day. Be consistent, use repetition, and give lots of praise to keep training fun and interesting for the puppy.

Be social.

Spend lots of time with your puppy, and be sure to introduce your pup to other people and dogs. Socializing your puppy is especially important if you plan to hunt with other people and dogs.

Make training scenarios as close to hunting in the field as you can.

Don’t wait for opening day to take your pup on the duck boat for the first time, for example. But make sure it’s not just the same thing every time. Keep your dog guessing with different types of hunting training sessions so they don’t get bored.

Know your dog.

Be sure to keep things fun, as dogs can easily key in on your emotions. If you’re tired, frustrated and had a rough day, it’s not a good time to train your dog. Be ready to be patient and enthusiastic for an effective training session. Just as your dog can read your emotions, be able to know how your pup is feeling. If you see signs that your dog is scared, frustrated or bored, it’s time to wrap up training and try again another time.

Think about timing.

Consider what seasons you’ll want to hunt with your dog and what age you’d like the dog to be at its first hunt. For example, puppies born in the spring are about six to eight months old when pheasant season opens. It also gives plenty of time for basic training before the season starts.

Dogs and puppies new to hunting Do your homework.

Have a training plan and outline the goals you’d like to reach with your dog, so you can research the best ways to get there.

By the time the season opens, your dog should know all the basic commands – like sit, stay, come, heel, etc. – and have had some work with retrieving and have been exposed to the sound of gunfire. Introduce the dog to decoys and calls long before the season starts. You may also want to have the dog work with live pen birds.

Go solo.

Try not to take a dog new to hunting out with other hunters and dogs at first – let the attention be on your dog so that you can give him or her lots of praise and time to work out the kinks.

7 Ti ps f o r T a k in g Kid s o r B e g i n n e rs Fi s h ing FROM THE INDIANA DNR WEBSITE

Tip 1: Start simple

A cane pole is a good way for new anglers or kids to start fishing. Spin-casting gear is a simple rod and reel for kids.

The next step is ultra-light spinning gear.

Tip 2: Lighten your line

Line that is 4 to 8-pound test will do the job; “pound test” is the amount of force it takes to break the line. Unless you’re targeting monster catfish or muskies, light line is your best bet.

Tip 3: Bag the big bobbers

Bobbers (or floats) are used to suspend your bait in the water and to alert you when to set the hook. The harder the bobber is to pull under, the harder it will be to hook a fish.

Small floats will help convince the fish to take your tasty bait and run. “Slip” bobbers work well for kids. Slip bobber rigs cut down on the amount of line needed at the end of the rod and are easier to cast. Small ice fishing bobbers can provide a light touch any time of year.

Tip 4: Sink it with shot

Sinkers (or weights) help get your line down to the fish. They can also create “zero buoyancy.” Ideally, you want your bobber to just barely float on the top of the water. Squeeze small BB-sized split shot sinkers onto your line, one at a time, until your bobber nearly sinks from the weight. Since there is very little resistance when the fish takes the bait, it is more likely to bite the bait and run.

Tip 5: Small hooks = big catches

Use hook sizes 6 to 10 (size 6 is larger than size 10). Fish won’t readily take large hooks unless they are feeding like crazy. A subtle presentation is often needed to catch wary fish. Tiny hooks also allow small fish to “inhale” the bait, rather than nibble the bait off the hook. If a fish swallows the hook and you want to return the fish to the water, simply cut the line as close to the hook as possible and release the fish. For a safer hook, smash down the barb with pliers or use barbless hooks.

Tip 6: Great big gobs of worms won’t do

There’s no need to use whole, whopping-big, writhing night

crawlers on your hook. Live bait such as red worms, wax 12

worms (bee moth larvae) or crickets work best. Keep the bait approximately the size of your hook, so the fish is less likely to steal your bait. You can also cut the bait to fit your hook. When you’re finished with the bait, give to another angler, bring home for the next trip, or throw it in the trash.

Never dump your bait into the water.

Tip 7: Fish Local

The best way to make someone an angler is to show them

where they can fish close to home. Regardless of whether it’s a Go FishIN in the City park or a retention pond in your neighborhood, show them where they can fish that doesn’t require a lot of travel time. You can find locations throughout the state with our Where to Fish map.

If you would like to learn how to teach fishing to the youth of your classroom or community and be able to borrow fishing equipment from the DNR for free, please visit Go FishIN online or contact gofishin@dnr.in.gov.

Young’s Wilderness Camp Accommodations

www.youngswildernesscamp.com | 800-559-8515 | 1 Youngs Rd., Nestor Falls, Ontario

Welcome to Young’s Camp on Lake of the Woods Lake of the Woods in Northern Ontario, Canada is an internationally acclaimed fishery and one of the top choices for angler destinations worldwide. Lake of the Woods is home to large numbers of world class trophy Musky, voracious Northern Pike, hard hitting and hard fighting Small mouth Bass, Largemouth Bass, Crappie, Yellow Perch and of course, plenty of delicious eating Walleye! Young’s Wilderness Camp is located in the middle of one of the “prime” spawning areas for all of these species and offers you the opportunity to be in the midst of fast paced fish catching opportunities just moments from the camp itself.

Due to the remote location of Stevens Bay and our camp, the fishing pressure is extremely low. It is not uncommon to virtually spend a full day without seeing another boat and to be able to take in the serene and breathtaking beauty of all the North Woods has to offer! Couple the serenity and beauty of the area with such a wide variety of fish catching opportunities and it spells one of the best family or group getaways one could possibly hope for!

Young’s Wilderness Camp is located on the Canadian Shield, also known as the Laurentian Plateau, an area where, during the Pleistocene epoch, continental ice sheets carved out deep valleys leaving behind myriad lakes, rivers and a dense boreal forest. Our location offers a rich, mixed bag for the hunter.

The more than a million acres of Crown Land is heavily populated with the deciduous plant life that provides a natural habitat for white-tail deer, black bear, moose and countless other mammals.

Young’s Camp is all about recreation, relaxation and serenity. Whether your interest is fishing, hunting or just relaxing, we would like nothing better than to accommodate you as our guest.
