Wildlife in North Carolina Magazine Publishes Spring Outdoors Guide
OutdoorHub 02.09.12
The N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission has published its Spring Outdoors Guide, a seasonal bonus issue for subscribers to Wildlife in North Carolina magazine.
The special issue highlights fishing, turkey hunting and warmer-weather recreational opportunities across the state. It includes a full-color fish identification feature on species found in North Carolina waters, a comprehensive list of marinas and boatyards and an easy-to-use chart showing the location of public boating access areas across the state.
With spring fishing always a favorite activity, respected outdoors writer and now Wildlife in North Carolina associate editor Mike Zlotnicki contributes a couple of angling articles, “Spring Into Bass Fishing” and “Springtime Slabs Beckon” on crappie fishing. Fly-fishing isn’t overlooked, with “Less is More: Adventures in Small Stream Fly Fishing,” an article on the charms of hidden mountain creeks. All are illustrated with photos by award-winning outdoors photographer Melissa McGaw.
If boating and fishing aren’t enough, several pages are devoted to the other popular tradition of spring, wild turkey season, with a primer on hunting strategies useful to beginning hunters and veterans alike.
