I just had a thought that sounds like a fun thread......this one is quotes about hunting/fishing. These may be famous or down home....I will start it out with #1, #2, and #3.

#1- about quail hunting- "Bobwhites are where you find them"- My Uncle, James Ford.

#2- about yote hunting- "Sometimes they come, sometimes they don't"- Byron South

#3- about duck hunting- "Sometimes you shoot ducks, and the other guy eats chips, and sometimes the other guy shoots ducks, and you eat chips"- Phil Robertson (The Duck Commander)
 
My dad, in disbelief, Nov. 1998. Recorded during a walkie talkie conversation after I shot a trophy whitetail and requested help getting him out...

"How dead is he?"

------------------------------------------------

A hunting buddy last year during a shotgun deer hunt. After a flurry of 12-15 shots he emerged from the woods and met three of us at the truck, first words out of his mouth were...

"How many tags do we get a year?"

--------------------------------------------

A hunting buddy named Buck, last week while calling coyoets in 34 inches of snow at temperatures pushing negative eight degrees.

"I'm sitting here reflecting on the 53 years of my life and I can't remember doing anything this damn stupid, and the only things even close were all with you!"
 
Haha, yeah I liked that last one... that's a classic. I awnsered him with a good one too, his eyes turned to the sky for a short prayer when I said...

"Hell I've done worse this weekend, just yesterday we fell through the ice into a creek"

I had hunted with hounds the day before (Christmas Eve) with a buddy up north in the same weather conditions... while trying to retrieve coyote hounds we wrecked the truck in a snow bank off a 40' levy and hung it up. We commensed to chasing the dogs on foot until we found a weak patch in the ice on a creek. KERPLUNK ! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
 
When I was a young lad, I saw a turkey flying down off of the roost. I made a snap decision to kill it. I saw a beard and that was all she wrote. I let 5 rounds go, my dad, he let 3 go. I think he would have left it alone if I hadn't started shooting.

After the woods became still again, he said "What were you doing?"

I said, "Shooting a turkey, what were you doing?"

He answered, "Making it fly faster."

When we were cleaning it, we found over 400 pellets. It was one shot up bird, but I learned a lesson from that day. Wait till they hit the ground.

I dont mind asking "how dead is he" because I have spent alot of time and energy tracking and "redeadening" ....some of those dead deer.
