Mid-creek musings while wondering how many people read my article and went fishing in Shunga this week: ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON CJONLINE
South Dakota resident Buddy Seiner wants to hear your fishing stories. More accurately, he wants to record them for generations to come. Seiner is working on the first online archive for audio fishing stories. The project, called Fish Stories, will help anglers share their fishing tales, reports, favorite moments and memories, all while preserving their fishing legacies for future generations. The first two days of May will offer some exquisit fishing, according to the Farmers' Almanac's Fishing Calendar. The best fishing will begin during the evening May 1 and continue overnight into the morning May 2. The following day is predicted to be poor, but the remainder of the week looks fair before things heat up again May 9-10. The morning bite will be best May 9, while the evening bite will produce better on May 10, according to the calendar. ORIGINALLY PUBLISHED ON CJONLINE
Sometimes, the fishing gods have a way of putting you exactly where you need to be to catch fish — even if it’s on your butt. That’s where I found myself last Sunday, covered with mud in the bed of Shunga Creek with my new tackle bag in the water and the tip of my favorite fishing pole broken off. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment will team up with the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism and Westar Energy for the fourth annual “Keep it Clean Kansas” state park cleanup event, which runs from 8 to 11 a.m. April 22 at various state parks.
The Kansas Wildlife, Parks and Tourism Commission will meet April 20 in the downstairs conference room of the KDWPT Operations Office, 512 S.E. 25th Ave. in Pratt.

Sometimes, the story that comes out of a hunt is every bit as good as the hunt itself. Larry Shipman and his 17-year-old grandson, Kaleb, had one of those hunts recently on the opening day of the youth turkey season. The pair was hunting in Osage County with Shipman’s older grandson Austin, who’s 22 years old and had been wanting to take Kaleb youth hunting the past couple of years.

Last week, I ran a letter from John Genther, of Topeka, who told about his fond memories of fishing with an Arbogast Jitterbug with his parents and the Arbogast Hula Popper with his brother, Robert, who passed away in 2006. This week’s letter is from Marty Reddick, also of Topeka, who is an old family friend and hunting buddy of mine and shared one of his better memories of fishing with the Heddon Co. Hellbender. He also shared a great photograph of his oldest grandson crappie fishing. Here is his story in its entirety: Meriden native C.J. Delfelder turns old barn into game-bird research facility at Kansas State4/11/2017 MANHATTAN – Every so often, the hushed sound of scurrying birds is punctuated by a piercing call: the short, two-note sound a pheasant rooster makes when it’s flushed from the ground. This is where Kansas State University animal science researchers and students are looking for the best ways to raise poultry efficiently, humanely and profitably.
And now that poultry farm is also home to a new research facility focused on game birds such as the ring-necked pheasant, thanks to Scott Beyer, K-State associate professor, and C.J. Delfelder, a graduate student from Meriden. Delfelder is working on a master’s degree in avian nutrition management with a focus on game birds. |
