The Outdoor Paper
For “Maine Folks”
The Sportin’ Journal
The Northwoods Sporting Journal is the
Northeast’s most comprehensive and readable
monthly outdoor publication. Published and edited literally at the trailhead of Maine’s sprawling
North Woods, the Sportin’ Journal - as it is known
locally - works at being an independent voice for
the state’s outdoor community. Some of our writers
are seasoned and specialized outdoorsmen who
will share their know-how and insights; some of
our contributors are simply lifelong outdoor people
with interesting stories to tell.
Our aim every month is to capture the essence of Maine’s remarkable outdoor heritage
by stirring memories, portraying Maine outdoor
humor, and sharing experiences and outdoor
knowledge about any and all aspects of outdoor
recreation in the North Woods. We also keep our
readers up to date with late breaking outdoor news
and hard hitting editorials about fish and wildlife
issues.
That we call ourselves the “Outdoor Paper
For Maine Folks” doesn’t mean that only Mainers
read the Journal. On the contrary, we are read by
outdoor lovers from 48 states and the Canadian
Maritimes. “Maine Folks” covers a lot of ground.
Anyone who hunts or fishes in Maine, who hikes
and camps here one week out of the year or comes
to our great state for a few days in June to swat
bugs and watch moose feeding in a beaver pond, or
owns land or a camp on one of Maine’s more than
3,000 lakes or ponds, we regard as “Maine Folks.”
If you consider yourself “Maine Folks” and
the outdoors is a special place for you, you’re
likely to find some special connections in the
Northwoods Sporting Journal.
