Bass pros fish for a living. What could be better, right? Sit down with a professional angler at a  boat show, and it comes out that they do enjoy their gig, mainly because they genuinely love to fish. One perk of the job is that the tournament season doesn’t run all year long, so they do have a true offseason.

Indiana DNR Looking for Trail Camera Volunteers for Deer Study

The Indiana DNR is looking for volunteers for a new study called "Snapshot IN" that will use trail cameras to gather information on Indiana wildlife.
Volunteers must have at least 10 acres and be willing to set up a trail camera provided by the DNR on their property this fall. The DNR hopes to find between 20 and 100 volunteers, according to wildlife biologist Shawn Rossler.
"Gathering accurate data on the distribution and relative abundance of wildlife species statewide can be extremely challenging for biologists," Rossler said. "Working with citizen scientists, the DNR hopes to understand how animals are using various land types in Indiana."
Snapshot IN will run during October and November, when many wildlife species are active.
The DNR will provide each landowner with the same camera model, with the same settings.

Of course, that silly stereotype espoused by the anti-hunting public is even less true today.
In fact, hunting isn’t just for guys, period.
It’s become a woman’s world, too.
The numbers don’t lie. In Indiana, the number of women who bought hunting licenses soared by 93 percent from 2006 to 2014.
It’s a national trend, too. A National Sporting Goods Association survey showed that the number of female hunters has risen 85 percent from 2001 to 2013.
