The Sportin’ Journal

The Outdoor Paper For “Maine Folks”

The Northwoods Sporting Journal is the Northeast’s most comprehensive, readable monthly sporting magazine. Published at the trailhead of Maine’s sprawling North Woods, the Sporting Journal prides itself on being an independent voice for the region’s outdoor community for more than 25 years. Some of our writers are seasoned, specialized outdoors people who share their know-how and insights. Some of our contributors are simply lifelong outdoors people with exciting stories to tell.

Every month, we aim to capture the essence of Northern New England’s remarkable outdoor heritage by stirring memories, portraying outdoor humor, sharing experience, and outdoor knowledge. We also keep our readers up to date with the late-breaking outdoor news and hard-hitting editorials about fish and wildlife issues. Anyone who loves to hunt and fish or finds the Great Outdoors a special place is likely to find some unique connections amid the Northwoods Sporting Journal pages.
