@oodmag.bsky.social...eerie howl at the peak mere yards above and behind me, just to let me know I wasn’t alone.
@oodmag.bsky.socialKen Doherty: My only true scare happened years ago in Northwestern Ontario while moose hunting. It was still dark when I finally reached my watch just below the brow of a rocky peak overlooking a new cut. I had just settled into my chair when a lone wolf let out a long loud...

@oodmag.bsky.socialThe best moose spots aren’t always obvious — and they’re rarely easy. They’re often small, dirty, inconspicuous places just far enough off the road, or just difficult enough to reach, that most hunters never bother with them.

@oodmag.bsky.social...fish and game law. Instead, they asked if I had seen the guy in the photo. Oshawa had experienced its seventh murder of the year the night before, and the suspect was last seen in the vicinity. I left, deciding if he was still around, he could have the spot.
@oodmag.bsky.socialGeoff Coleman: Fishing a run on Oshawa Creek just after sunrise, I saw a heavily armed and uniformed police officer holding up a photo. Three more officers and a German shepherd appeared from the near darkness, so I waded back wondering if I was breaking some obscure...

@oodmag.bsky.socialWaiting after the shot is one of the most important decisions you’ll make — for both the animal and your chances of recovering it.

@oodmag.bsky.socialJeff Gustafson: Years ago I was waiting to pick friends up at night by boat. It was nearly dark and I was in a cedar swamp, which are creepy by nature. A pack of wolves starting fully going off over the hill. I hotfooted it, happy to be back in the boat!

@oodmag.bsky.socialCanadian trap shooter Paul Shaw is now the second Ontario resident inducted into the Amateur Trapshooting Association’s (ATA) Hall of Fame, after a ceremony on Aug. 4.*
@oodmag.bsky.socialJeff Helsdon: Waterfowl hunters can be caught in scary weather, particularly over big water. On Lake Erie, in a 14-foot punt boat with a shallow draft, water was soon coming over the sides, despite our being in a protected bay. We walked the boat in, albeit later than planned.
@oodmag.bsky.social@oodmag.bsky.socialCongratulations to #PhotoFriday winner Joshua Marion of Petawawa, whose first fly-in moose hunt with Jacob Dickerson, Mathew Dickerson, and Scott Laderoute via Ogoki Frontier was a success in WMU 16C. This bull responded to cow calls, creating an opening at 100 yards on opening morning.

@oodmag.bsky.social...that originated from the folklore of Algonquian-speaking tribes. Later that night, during a lull in the conversation, the quiet crackle of the fire was broken by a blood-curdling cry from across the lake. I’ve never heard a sound like it again.
@oodmag.bsky.socialGord Ellis: Friends and I were going to a fly-in lake north of Lake Nipigon for a week. The outfitter told us before we went “you need to know there is a wendigo on the lake.” I knew a little about the lore of the wendigo and that it was a mythological, cannibalistic being...
