What To Do in July
Fish for largemouth bass at
Kramper Lake
All month | Danish Alps State Recreation Area
Kramper Lake is a new reservoir, and it's just at that age where fi sh
populations are at their peak. So the fi shing at Kramper is excellent
right now — and that includes largemouth bass. Topwater baits,
particularly scum frogs, are a good choice; throw some out early and
late in the day.

Ready your hunting
equipment
Throughout the month | Statewide
While there's not much hunting
happening right now, summer is a good
time to organize your hunting equipment
for fall. Set aside some time to repair,
clean and organize your gear; you'll be
glad you did.
