Memorial Day weekend for many families is the start to their outdoor recreation season. Fishing, camping, hikes, boating, biking and much more take up all our pre-summer activities. It is not too late to make some plans for some all American outdoor fun. This year get out to a park you never have been, camp in a new area or fishing on a new pond or stream.
As a teen and then in college, I made it a point to fish in a new place every chance I could. Here is an idea, get a local map and find all the ponds, lakes, reservoirs, rivers and streams you can get to and access legally. Make a summer bucket list and challenge your friends to do the same. See who can catch the most species and compare notes throughout the summer. You will be a better angler at the end, guaranteed.
