Do you ever think of something you wish you would’ve packed once you’re already on the water? There’s a lot of gear to remember when you hit the water to go fishing.

10-Gauge Added to the Cartridge Hall of Fame
The mighty 10-gauge shotshell is an absolute powerhouse. Well before the longer 3.5-inch 12-gauge shell was born, the 10-gauge was hammering game on a regular basis. Here’s why Larry Potterfield of Midway USA has added it to the Cartridge Hall of Fame: The big 10-gauge shotgun load throws a lot of shot, as well as

Top Edge
I used to think that top-water baits were a specialized fishing presentation appropriately used ONLY under the best of conditions: A warm, calm, sunrise with a few wisps of steam rising off the water? Sure, there is nothing funner than catching a fish on a top-water bait, but my thinking was that there were usually …

When Bad Goes to Worse!
Being the victim of a violent attack is rare for law-abiding citizens, but they do occur! I often use the analogy, “The chances of being struck by lightning are rare, but you don’t see too many people standing outside when it’s thundering and lightning.” Now imagine this, “What if you were struck by lightning not once, but two or three times?” That’s a bad day! Here’s my second question, “What if you were facing not just one bad guy who wants to hurt you, but two or three?” I would estimate the chances of that happening are more likely than being struck by lightning two or three times in a row!

‘Reel in’ that discarded fishing line
As soon as we arrived at the Chadron City Ponds for a short family fishing excursion, our dog Benny’s attention turned to the shoreline. His eyes were fixed on a bird dangling upside down from the rushes. Sadly, just as I suspected, the American robin had become tangled in fishing line. That bird flew off …

Watch: Hewitt and Halep Trade Blows in Wimbledon Warm-Up
The Aussie had some kind words for Halep on social media when all was said and done. Former champ LLeyton Hewitt and top-seeded Simona Halep took to the court for a grueling practice today in London. Looks like both players enjoyed the experience quite a bit—after they caught their breath.
Thank you soooo much for the practice @lleytonhewitt ☺️☺️ It’s amazing how well you play and make it look so easy. I was dead at the end 😜 Thanks also to @darren_cahill for organising and Andrei Pavel for joining in. I had the best day @wimbledon 😍 #luckygirl pic.twitter.com/dcUf7Dvdep

Hewitt, 37, has taken a wild card into the doubles with Alex Bolt. Hewitt and Halep both have won Grand Slams with Darren Cahill as their coach, so the pair have more in common than their well-documented and much-celebrated battle lust.
Haha… @Simona_Halep you hit it great and took it easy on me 😜 https://t.co/vozPLCLKIR

Video: Diver Finds a Tiny Ditched Revolver at the Bottom of a Georgia River
Could someone have used this tiny pistol in a crime? Already this year we’ve shared not one, not two, but three different videos of YouTubers Brandon, Tristan and Jake finding long-lost weapons. Each of them was seemingly ditched in their local river in Columbus, Georgia. Jake, aka DALLMYD, already had a pretty good day at the

Kvitova out of Eastbourne with Hamstring Injury
The two-time Wimbledon champion hopes to be in good health for Wimbledon next week.
Petra Kvitova has withdrawn from this week’s Nature Valley International in Eastbourne, citing an injured hamstring that she injured while winning the title last week at Birmingham.
The Czech defeated Kateryna Bondarenko in round two at Eastbourne for her sixth straight win on grass and said the injury was worse this morning when she woke up.

“I felt my hamstring in the Birmingham final and although I played with tape in my match here yesterday, when I woke up this morning it felt worse. With Wimbledon around the corner I couldn’t take the risk of making it worse by playing today,” wrote Kvitova on social media.
The two-time Wimbledon champion is seeded eighth at this year’s Championships.
