My friend Jack is a tough retired Montana logger who hunts like a cougar. Sure, he enjoys his hunting buddies. But for decades now, each hunting season, he disappears alone into the high country with a simple kit of dried food and a rifle after bighorn and elk. Often, he returns with game. Always, he returns with an adventure. While I share Jack’s taste in solitary hunting, I don’t have quite his tenacity. For me, a day or two alone is often enough.

Perch has to be one of the most underrated freshwater fish. They’re widespread across the country, don’t require much gear, are family-friendly, and taste great, too.

Summer is here, and most wild game seasons are specks in the rearview. Days are longer, temps higher, and that means camping and grilling seasons are just hitting their strides. If you had a successful hunting season, it’s time to reap the benefits from those pack-outs, cold mornings, and long butchering sessions in your kitchen. But even if you blanked, it’s still a good excuse to grill up some burgers and brats. Much like hunting, outdoor cooking requires the right tools for the job.

While there can be a certain amount of luck in anything, those who consistently have success will tell you that other factors typically are in play. Consistently catching fish, particularly trophy caliber, doesn’t involve as much luck as it does having the ability to understand the factors that consistently matter to get results. Here are five things to better understand and implement when targeting trophy-size walleyes.

Any fisherman who isn’t still being carded for adult beverages can likely remember more than a few controversies with fishing technology. Way back, it was flashers, then GPS, then mapping, and then side imaging. Each of these advances had critics claim that it would ruin fishing or it was too expensive for the average angler to afford.

Whether we like it or not, technology is here to stay. Like a tiny snowball rolling downhill until it becomes a massive avalanche, technological advancements continue to rage forward. And unless hunters and anglers are willing to ride the edge of the torrent, they’ll be buried by it. This is especially true in the world of fishing, where electronics like forward-facing sonar and live imaging are making many of us endlessly more efficient at catching fish.
