Shooting and fishing...

I like both but have never had much of an opportunity to do either.

I've been out bunny shooting a few times with my sister and some other friends but that was aaaaaaaaaaaaaaages ago.

I have a good friend who does a lot of deer & pig hunting, with dogs, and I'd love to go out with him sometime - although I do suspect that when it come down to it I couldn't stick a pig.

Fishing - love it too but, again don't know enough about it. I have a rod gathering dust.

I really needed a big brother or a Dad growing up.

Bloody oath there Spank, are you storing arms for a small personal army or something??

Feel free to pop around to my place any time and ping a few possums. I quite often wander down the road and get a few, which is a pretty stress-free "hunting exercise".

We've also got a lot of goats and a few pigs around our area so that's always a bit of fun. Hardly ever get the chance to go fishing but wish I did. Got some cod and terakihi off Turakirae Head the other day though - very, very nice trip!

Nice to see a few people on this site (of both genders too!) that are not of the "bleeding heart Bambi-hugger anti-gun type"

Good on you all,

I don't knock anybody that has no interest in hunting & fishing but I've a negative tolerance for anybody that tries to tell me why I shouldn't go hunting/fishing/have guns/eat meat etc

. (rant over).

I have to admit I enjoy making people think... They're anti guns/hunting/killing - so I just calmly tell them to stop eating meat then and let them work the rest out for themselves...

It ain't no big mystery where meat comes from... the method of death may differ slightly (stunning and killing on the line at the works vs a single clean shot in the bush) but I prefer the taste of wild Venison and beef anyway...

Damn right- and by this time next week I'll be dining on White-tail venison!!

BTW I suppose Cordura etc was put on earth for those that didn't like the idea of naked cows walking around feeling the cold eh?
