I enjoy freshwater fishing, especially fly fishing. There is something awesome about a nice trout hitting a fly, especially a dry fly. While I enjoy fishing many places in NY state, I personally feel that PA does a much better job with stocking trout (sizes and quantities). I also enjoy doing some ice fishing on different lakes in PA with my brother-in-law.
If you've never heard that thunder of a gobbling turkey in the spring, you've missed something special. Cool, crisp mornings in the woods followed by the sounds of animals waking up around you and then you hear it somewhere in the distance. Trust me, it gives you goose bumps. When you hear that thunder coming closer to your setup and calling you know it's game time.
Deer hunting is another great experience no matter what your instrument of choice is. Gun, bow, crossbow it doesn't matter. Being out there in nature and watching these majestic creatures walk through the woods is fantastic! When you are lucky enough to harvest one, show the respect that they deserve and then savor every moment of it.
