Waterfowl hunters have it good in Oklahoma. Not only do they live in a prime location along the central flyway, but they also need only check their e-mail to find out just what is happening at their favorite waterfowling hotspots across the state.
The Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation's weekly news release includes periodic waterfowl reports throughout the entire waterfowling season, and sportsmen can receive the information in their e-mail box by signing up on the Department's Web site at wildlifedepartment.com.<br />
"It's not always easy to decide where you want to start your search to find concentrations of birds, but the waterfowl report can be just the thing to help hunters decide where to scout," said Nels Rodefeld, information and education chief for the Wildlife Department. "We have a lot of helpful cooperators across the state who help us compile these reports. That way waterfowlers get the most up to date information, and they get it fast. It can be a very useful tool for those hunters who take the time to check it out."<br />
Waterfowl hunters can sign up to receive the entire weekly news release or choose to only receive the waterfowl reports.<br />
"Our new e-mail system makes it easy for Oklahoma sportsmen to decide exactly what information they want to receive, whether it's the waterfowl reports, fishing reports, news stories or all of it at once," Rodefeld said. "The great thing about the Wildlife Department's news release is that there is something for everybody who signs up to receive it."<br />
People with an interest in hunting, fishing or the outdoors can stay current on what's happening in Oklahoma's outdoors by logging on to wildlifedepartment.com/wl_news.htm and signing up to receive the Department's weekly news.<br />
News stories each week provide subscribers with information on everything from fishing and hunting news to eagle and bat-watching activities, and they refer readers to additional sources of information on certain topics relating to Oklahoma's outdoors. Put simply, the Department's weekly news stories provide readers with important, timely information that Oklahoma outdoorsmen need to know.<br />
Subscribers not only receive updates on the latest Department news and outdoor-related tips and information, but they also receive the Department's weekly Outdoor Calendar, Fishing Report and other seasonal information like the Waterfowl Report.<br />
In addition to current events and other outdoor news, the weekly release provides an Outdoor Calendar that gives a detailed outlook on a variety of outdoor-related events taking place across the state. Activities designed to educate people on wildlife and to hone their outdoor skills take place all year long, and annual events such as tackle shows and the Wildlife Expo provide endless entertainment.<br />
"This news release is a great tool for anyone wanting to stay informed about the outdoors in Oklahoma," Rodefeld said.<br />
