In writing about the outdoors – or any other subject, for that matter – deciding what to include and what to omit in a particular story often is a challenge.

It might be something that’s not completely relevant to the story, for example – interesting though it may be – or, perhaps, it’s a paragraph or 10 that gets cut on the editing desk.

I thought about that while pondering a topic for this week’s Northland Outdoors column and quickly came up with at least three items I didn’t include in recent stories – on paddlefishing in western North Dakota, the recent catch (and release) of a 56-inch lake sturgeon on the Red River in Grand Forks and the possible sighting of a bobcat (or mountain lion) on the East Grand Forks side of the Greenway.

So, here goes.
