For the Love of Dove Hunting!

September 8, 2016 by Clark Wendlandt

9-5-16-blog-dove-huntingFor me dove hunting marks the start of hunting season, which is one of the things I spend a lot of time planning for, thinking about, obsessing over, preparing for and just flat enjoy.  Deer hunting is probably my favorite kind of hunting and what I spend the most time on, but dove hunting is a time you can get together with family and friends and spend time in the outdoors.  You really don’t even have to have that much gear – a good shotgun, some shells, some camo and a bird vest, and you’re ready.  You can even borrow a shotgun if you need to.  And it is hands down the best way to get kids excited about hunting.  You don’t have to be really quiet.  Movement can be important, but it won’t mess up an entire hunt, and there is usually some really good action.  Shooting at and killing dove are two very different things.  Dove like to dart and fly fast, and can be really challenging.  My advice is to take as many shells as you can and shoot a lot.   Patti and I had the opportunity to hunt with Angel and Wade Middleton on opening morning. It was a great time and a we all got our limits.  If you’ve never tried it, dove is delicious (and Angel has some great recipes!). What a great sport and family activity.  I hope you all get a chance to get out in the field in the next few weeks!

Fishing was brutally tough so I was thankful for every bass I caught this week, but unfortunately it was only good enough to finish middle of the pack in 52nd. Time to put it behind me and gear up for the next one. #teamoutdoors #rangerboats #yamahaoutboards #powerpole #garminpro #thmarineteam #lithiumpros #truetimber #strikeking #sunline #ownerhooks ...

Let’s get em’ tomorrow. #teamoutdoors #rangerboats #yamahaoutboards #powerpole #thmarineteam #garminpri #fishgarmin #truetimber #strikeking #sunline #ownerhooks #lithiumpros #basselite ... See more

The Strike King Lure Company Cut-R worm is one of my go-to baits. It’s versatile and catches a lot of fish! #strikeking

The Strike King® Rage Tail™ Cut-R Worm is a soft bait with a crazy streak. It sports a Rage flange on its tail for increased action, and in fact, this tail design boasts the fastest tail flicker rate of any worm on the market. Incredibly versatile, this worm is ideal for flipping and pitching, Texas and Carolina rigging, and even straight swimming retrieves on a weighted or unweighted hook. No matter how you fish it, you'll wonder how you ever caught fish without it. Infused with organic coffee scent, which attracts and holds the bite while masking human scent.

Strike King's most versatile worm yet

As we’ve taken the past few days to reflect on my mom’s life, we’ve come across a lot of great memories through old pictures. My mom was the life of the party, had a contagious laugh, and very importantly to me and my brother, was always willing to go fishing or hunting with us. Swipe through to see some serious short shorts, bowl hair cuts, and mustaches... ... See more

My mom passed away yesterday to go be with Jesus in heaven. The angels are singing there now. She gave me my competitive spirit and gave me every opportunity I could ever want in life. She was a remarkable person, kind-hearted, generous and always interested in others. As we are celebrating her life as a family, we really appreciate the love and support we are receiving. Thank you! ... See more

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year

2020 Bassmaster Angler of the Year It is hard to put in to words how it feels to have the greatest accomplishment of my career occur in the context of the most chaotic year of my life, and I imagine many of yours too – 2020. But in the midst of all the chaos, my job, while disrupted for a few months, resumed after a few months thanks to the efforts made by B.A.S.S to provide a full season for us. I am so appreciative to them and my fellow anglers for pulling together to make this happen. And … Read More...
