My name is Courtney Hungle. I am an outdoor writer from Regina, Saskatchewan. I enjoy spending time in the outdoors and sharing this passion with others. My dad has inspired me to get into writing and has been a role model of mine. I grew up hunting and fishing with my family wanting to do everything my older brother did. Today I particularly enjoy open water walleye fishing and hunting for big game animals, but will partake in any and all outdoor activities. To see what my friends and family are up to check out our Instagram page @hungle_outdoors and the pages of this publication.

When going out on the water fishing, it is important to be prepared for anything that could happen. Everyone always thinks of the basics, life jackets, an ore, and their fishing gear. But some things you should have on hand are not always found in a fishing store. Below I will explain a few of the different items I have in my boat that you don’t usually find at a fishing store and why they are important 1. First Aid Kit A first aid kit is key to have with you on any adventure whether that be on land or…

As a female hunter, finding gear with a feminine fit, that is comfortable and warm is hard to come by. After wearing my older brother’s hand-me-downs hunting clothes and a number of different brands said to be designed for women, I landed upon DSG clothing. This brand of women’s apparel is made and designed by women for women. Their products are the best hunting gear for women I have found. Not only are their products made for women they are also size inclusive with their sizes ranging from XS-5XL. I have tried a number of DSG products throughout this hunting…

Even though she’s small, she’s as tough as grit. Even though she’s pretty, she’s as determined as can be. Even though she’s a girl, she can do anything anyone else can do. I grew up wearing pink, and I still do so today. I did gymnastics, dance and cheering. I played with dolls, had tea parties and liked to dress up like a Disney Princess. My dad and older brother went hunting. I saw many deer, moose, elk and game birds come home with them. I enjoyed hearing the stories of the hunt and enjoyed eating the bounty of successful…

To be successful when targeting walleye during the open-water season, I use a number of different techniques and approaches to entice the fish to bite throughout the entire season. At the beginning of the season, my motto is to sit still. As we get into the middle of the season, my motto is to move along. Near the end of the season when the walleye start to clump together, my motto is to get aggressive. When fishing in a boat, you have the advantage of being able to easily change your depth, speed and location to increase your chances of…

A great thing about hunting Whitetail deer is that there are multiple ways to hunt them. Some of my favorite methods for hunting Whitetail deer are calling, pushing bush, and spot-and-stalk. In fact, spot and stalk is my favorite way to hunt Whitetails since it gives me the chance to walk through deer country and see where the deer spend most of their time. I can enjoy the sights and the scenery and get within a comfortable shooting range of the deer, which gives me the best opportunity for a standing broadside shot. Spot-and-stalk deer hunting can be very effective,…
