Becoming an Outdoors-Woman Workshop Set June 2-4 in Crossville
NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency (TWRA) will host the 2017 Becoming an Outdoors-Woman (BOW) workshop June 2-4 in Crossville at the Clyde M. York 4-H Center.
The relaxed atmosphere of the BOW workshop is aimed at women, and an opportunity for those 18 or older to learn outdoor skills usually associated with hunting and fishing. However, the workshop provides useful for other out-door pursuits and interests. Workshop participants will have a chance to take a variety of courses over the three days and the classes are taught by experts in their respective fields. There will be special programs in the evenings.

Chickamauga Reservoir Report:
Largemouth Bass: Many bass are bedding. Plastic worms, spinnerbaits, lipless lures, and topwater baits are the best baits. Some heavy fish are being caught.
Smallmouth Bass: Upper reservoir and lower reservoir anglers are catching a few fish. Jigs or crankbaits are good lure choices.
Crappie: Shallow fish are being caught. Some fish are spawning, others have spawned. Jigs or minnows are being used. Trolling, tight lining, and fishing under a float are all techniques being used.
Striped bass: No observations.
Bluegill: Many bluegills are bedding. Crickets or worms are better than other baits.
Sauger/Walleye: No observations.
Catfish: Some catfish are being caught along the river banks and also shallow in the sloughs. The meaty bait of your choice can be used. - TWRA -

Research Being Conducted on Pygmy Rattlesnakes
NASHVILLE --- The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is assisting wildlife biologists at Tennessee State University in research to determine the distribution of pygmy rattlesnakes in Tennessee.
The pygmy rattlesnake is listed as a threatened species in Tennessee and the research will help in conservation efforts to preserve the species in the state. Native to Tennessee, pygmy rattle-snakes are predators that are rarely encountered and play important ecological roles, including the control of rodent populations. These tiny snakes will rattle their tails when threatened, but

bites are extremely rare and non-fatal if treatment is administered. The snakes are seldom seen by humans.Pygmy rattlesnakes
To aid their research, the TSU wildlife biologists are asking that anyone who happens to encounter a pygmy rattlesnake, he/she is asked to docu-ment the location with a photograph with the Smartphone GPS location turned on. (For an IPhone, it is located in Settings/Privacy. Other phones or cameras will have similar settings.) This will provide GPS coordinates of the photo to document the exact location.
Previous pygmy rattlesnake sightings, along with photographs, can also
(“Pygmy Rattlesnakes” ... con’t from p. 24)
(Con’t below)
be reported with specific location data and the date of the sight-ing. Persons are reminded not to harass or attempt to capture the snakes. The TWRA does not want anyone to endanger themselves.
Pygmy rattlesnake sightings and information may be reported to one of the following biologists: Shawn Snyder, Email: [email protected] or (717) 683-4226; Dr. Bill Sutton, Email: [email protected] or (615) 963-7787.
