[HuntingNY-News]

Planning on starting a series of stories on "Favorite Fishing Spots," which will profile off-shore locations that continue to draw anglers year after year -- I'm talking about such places as the causeway on Otisco, or the breakwater at Verona Beach. I need some help here. Call me at 470-6066 or email me at [email protected] John Berry/The Post-StandardJohn Dobricki casts for trout recently on Limestone Creek.First off, sorry about filing this report a day late. I usually file it on Tuesday afternoon, but the carp fishing tournament in Baldwinsville and a personal problem caused me to be a bit scatterbrained.Anyway, here's the update on what's coming in this week's Outdoors pages of The Post-Standard.FRIDAY: Second in a three-part series on local year-round trout streams. This week we visit Limestone Creek. We go fishing with a John Dobricki, local angler who's wet his line on these waters for more than 20 years and tell what makes this stream so special for him (and others).Column: Wrapup of several things, including last weekend's birdathon, an eye-opening hike some locals are planning to take and a run-in I had recently with a tree-climbing ground hog.SUNDAY: Staff Photographer Jim Commentucci writes and supplies the photos for a recent morel hunting expedition. These are tasty wild mushrooms.Column: Still mulling my options.. ANYTHING ELSE READERS OF THIS REPORT WOULD LIKE TO SEE ME WRITE ABOUT? The effectiveness of this report is two-fold. First it lets readers know what's coming up story-wise. It also allows readers a chance to affect coverage and provide sources for upcoming stories. Bottom line: Keep in touch and give input. You could make a difference as to what appears week to week on the outdoors page!
