Congratulations to Ott DeFoe for winning the 2019 Bassmaster’s Classic! Knoxville native gets the Knoxville win!

It’s the first day of Spring, and it’s time to get outdoors and enjoy the weather! TWRA put together a great reminder on hunting and fishing licenses!

I’m excited to be in Giles Co. at the TN Governor’s One Shot Turkey Hunt with Tennessee Wildlife Resources Foundation this weekend. We’ve had some big wins in education reform the past couple of weeks, and we’re looking forward to getting back to work on Monday!

We need to get people outside! Step in right direction! AssocFishWildlife is delighted by this announcement of a continuing commitment by US Department of the Interior to expanded access for hunting & angling, on National Refuges, in partnership with fish & wildlife agencies. doi.gov/pressreleases/…

Very glad to be a part of such a historic piece of legislation. While restoration of threatened species will always be a goal, preventing an animal from becoming imperiled is the real focus.

Excited to have the Bass Pro Shops US Open National Amateur Bass Fishing Team Championship on Old Hickory Lake today and also honored to serve on the #nationalfishhabitatpartnership. #gofishtennessee

It was a great day on the mighty Mississippi for the River Monsters Tournament in Memphis TN. Pictured with me are Commissioner Angie Box, her husband Brad, the one and only Bill Dance, and tournament founder and director George Young. #tnwildlife Bass Pro Pyramid

About 150, 10-15 in. rainbow trout were placed into the river at the @TVANEWS S. Holston weir dam today by officials from 4 agencies. The release commemorates an agreement to provide continued funding for 3 federal fish hatcheries to continue stocking waters in GA and TN U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service

Thanks for a fun outing and your support Bill Dance! #tnwildlife

Duck hunters be sure to sanitize your boots and gear if you work at a poultry farm or have poultry flocks at home.

🦆Reminder🦆 Phase 2 of TN duck season kicks off on Monday, Dec. 5th through Jan. 31, 2023. Many are used to a weekend opener but this year it starts on a Monday due to the split season used to maximize hunt days later in January. #tnwildlife Photo: @smokey_photos_ on IG
