Lack of Respect
With the new day breaking, I walked the bank of the Pere Marquette, looking for my first honey hole of the morning.  It was beautiful – the sun’s rays bouncing off the banks, bringing new life to the early spring forage - but, as I walked along, something on the trail ahead caught my eye. WTF? A beer can.  And another beer can.  I hate trash! It amazes me as to how little respect s...
First Hawaiian Island Adventure
For those of you that regularly follow Simply Outdoors'  blog you know that I recently relocated to Hawaii. It has been a hectic and crazy summer to say the least, but I did finally get to experience my first "island edition" outdoor excursion recently. Words and pictures probably won't give the experience its due justice, but here it goes anyways. The day trip was planned to consist of a hike...
Another Mounted Buck for Justin
Our SimplyOutdoor Pro Staffer, Justin, had a great deer season last year.  And if you need to be reminded as to how "great" it was, you can click here. But, even though all of us completely remember how great his season was, and because Justin is the complete jerk that he is, he likes to send pictures months after the season in order to continue to rub it in. The picture in this post is of ...
Primal Thoughts
The corn is shoulder high, farmers are harvesting their wheat crop already, tomorrow it is supposed to be ninety degrees, and yet all I can think about is fall. It’s always interesting to see what triggers the senses and summons that primal hunting urge within.  The corn stalks glistening in the morning sun caught my eye this morning, as well as the morning sun’s reflection on the tractor ...
Role Reversal
After stumbling across this picture, I'm starting to get a little concerned.  I know that bears inhabit many of the woods around us, and while their population may be small in my area of Michigan, if they are starting to get this smart I might need to be careful when scouting, hunting, or simply heading to my treestand. And, Mike, my fellow Michigan hunting blog friend and bear hunter, you and...

Fishing-better than a sharp stick in the eye!

Posted By: Arthur on June 29, 2007 in Bass and Bluegill - Comments: No Comments »

100_1357.jpgAlright, so I was a litte frustrated with the fishing tonight. None of us anymore own a boat so the wife and I went out to a local lake and tried some bobber fishing from shore! Not even one bite. Oh well! Was a gorgeous night though and got to take the pup out for his first fishing trip. We had a good time with or without catching fish and was much better than sitting inside the house the entire night!

sidestab.jpgThe wife got a little bored so she went off and starting taking some pictures. She took the pic you see at the start of the post of me fishing and also took this one. A nice little gem of the fishing reel I was using tonight. I think I’ll call Shakespeare and see if they want to use it for an ad!

Mission Statement!!

Posted By: Arthur on in Site goodies - Comments: No Comments »

albumcover.JPGSo this is our first ever post on AJS Outdoors and we wanted to send a clear message! Alright I’m just kidding a little. We are NRA proud though there is no kidding in that, but we’re not out to hurt anyone. We just wanted to start off our website with an attention getter and this is the best thing I got! Keep watching this section of the site for all of our daily outdoor activities, but don’t be surprised if every once in awhile their is a lull in the action. We are not professionals so we do have to work for a living! That being said there will be times when our outdoor activities aren’t happening quite as often as we’d like! Keep looking though and thanks for reading and enjoying the outdoors!!
