Game & Fish Publisher Michael Cassidy Fulfills ‘Bucket List’ Dream with Maine Moose Hunt

Posted on October 12, 2021October 18, 2021 by George Apregan

DENVER (October 11, 2021) – After 30 years of trying to draw a tag in Maine to hunt moose, Game & Fish publisher Michael Cassidy recently got the chance…and did not disappoint.

Cassidy, who won his chance to hunt in the Pine State through the moose hunting lottery system, harvested a 600-pound moose in the Alagash region of Maine. The “bucket list” harvest fulfilled a lifelong dream.

In a story recently published online at gameandfishmag.com, Cassidy stated: "It was a Maine Moose Dream hunt! After 30 years of trying for the Maine moose lottery, I finally drew my once-in-a-lifetime Maine moose tag!" The Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife received more than 72,000 applications for the 2021 fall moose hunting permits and issued 3,480.

Meat from the harvested moose was donated to the Maine Hunters for the Hungry, and field-tissue samples were taken to assist students from the University of Maine graduate-study research in their studies of the state's moose population.

‘Wild Boar Fever: The Art of Boar’ Epic Driven Hunting Series Airing Now on Sportsman Channel and MyOutdoorTV

Posted on October 8, 2021October 5, 2021 by George Apregan

DENVER (October 8, 2021) – In 2019, Outdoor Channel introduced North American audiences to one of the world’s most popular and exciting hunting methods – driven hunting – with Wild Boar Fever presented by Aimpoint. Now, a new take on that series, Wild Boar Fever: The Art of Boar presented by Aimpoint, is airing Tuesdays and Sundays at 4:30 p.m. ET on Sportsman Channel and available on MyOutdoorTV.

Narrated and curated by the star of Wild Boar Fever, legendary German hunter Franz-Albrecht Oettingen-Spielberg, The Art of Boar showcases the very best scenes from 11 Wild Boar Fever seasons filmed over the past three decades.

Wild Boar Fever: The Art of Boar is the ultimate celebration of everything that has made Wild Boar Fever so popular with global audiences over three decades. Watch monster keilers being taken at full pace in France, Hungary, Croatia and Romania. See the precision marksmanship that defies the laws of physics, and of course, watch many of the most famous scenes of Franz-Albrecht doing what he does best. Franz-Albrecht also reveals to audiences for the first time what it was like starring in the most famous Wild Boar Fever scenes, which molded a generation of hunters and defined a category. Wild Boar Fever is an epic compilation of arguably the best driven hunting scenes ever filmed, all together in one season for the first time.

Wild boar hunting in Europe involves more than a bolt-action rifle and steady nerves. A driven hunt pushes boar towards hunters from their daytime cover using specially-trained dogs and a team of fearless beaters. The hunters selectively shoot the boar with single shots from bolt action rifles as they run through the gun line. This style of hunting is the most popular method in Europe because – not only is it a highly-effective means of managing a growing and menacing population – it is a fast-paced, challenging and thrilling method of shooting game on the run.

In MeatEater, Rinella explores various hunting techniques, tracks and pursues prey, and procures and cooks his own food. Whether tracking blacktail deer, or rooting out javelina, Rinella leverages his back-country skills while challenging himself at every corner and providing nail-biting adventure along the way.

Steven Rinella is an avid outdoorsman, writer, and television personality best known for his ability to translate the hunting lifestyle to a wide variety of audiences. His weekly MeatEater podcast (distributed on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Spotify and Stitcher) is the most popular podcast in the outdoor category on Apple.
