Portable Aerator for Fish & Bait by Fish Food Tackle
The Fish Food Tackle Portable Aerator is ideal when you must keep your bait or fish alive. Whether it be minnows or small fish, or for aquarium emergencies…this fish aerator will fill in nicely.
After spending too much money on competing aerators for our own personal use, we came up with our own.
We enlarged the lithium battery and even enlarged the air pump for the optimal amount of oxygen pushed into the water, for the longest time possible.

Best Mobile Ice Fishing House for Serious Anglers
It’s early Sunday afternoon in Lake Country. The football game is on, the beer is flowing, and maybe a bobber goes down…or not. Does this sound like a scenario for you? While I’m not knocking a man’s version of a good time, this is often the scenario of those who own permanent ice fishing houses all over the Midwest. You can usually spot them in large communities, more often it seems than not. And this community doesn’t build until almost mid-winter, too. Personally, I don’t drink on the ice. I’m not against anyone doing so, I just hit the ice to catch fish, PERIOD. I don’t want a SUPER HEAVY ICE HOUSE that I can only use a few months

Snow Goose Hunting 101 – Everything You Need to Know to Hunt Snow Geese
Snow goose hunting has to be one of the most psychotic outdoor activities on the planet. Why? Well, if you’ve never been on a week-long snow goose hunting trip, it has to be one of the most tiring vacations you’ll ever experience. I mean, to do this week in and out requires a special type of person, and there are very few that can stand up and claim to know…the grind. What is the grind??? Well, it usually starts WAY TOO EARLY in the morning, and after setting and picking up decoys, cleaning birds, scouting, etc. it ends with a repeat the following day. With that being said it’s often called a young man’s game, and for good reason. I’ve

Muddy Pro Harness Review
Editor’s Note: I saw Lukas’ story on Facebook and I knew this would be a good reminder about the importance of safety harnesses. I know someone with permanent back injuries due to falling out of a treestand. Safety first! I run the Muddy Pro Harness system for bow hunting out of tree stands. The product is awesome and very lightweight coming in at 1.5lbs. They’re equipped with added shoulder straps for a very comfortable fit and mesh backing. They also feature quick-release buckles for the waist that are very nice and quiet and release very easily! No metal-on-metal noise is an added bonus. Tree strap and tether strap are included, all needed for use is a quick latch hook. Another

Best Video Camera for Hunting – Start Filming Your Hunts
Updated best video cameras for hunting for 2021/2022! I started filming hunts back in 2004, and have been having fun doing amateur videos ever since. I get it, I’m not George Lucas and never will be…but I like having decent video cameras to capture memories as I get older. Nowadays, I like to have the camera rolling whenever I’m out hunting or fishing. You just never know when something BIG is going to happen…like my personal best walleye that I caught on film years back. A worst-case scenario is you acquire no decent footage, which takes about 10 seconds to reformat your SD card and delete it all. This article is really for those interested in self-filming your hunts. The
