IrishEnigma I've put in for the moose draw in Maine and New Hampshire. I run up to Massachusetts twice a year to fish for strippers, tuna and hunt waterfowl.

Mainly waterfowl and upland game bird here in NV. And lots of rod and reel and fly fishing. I just got into spear fishing a couple of years ago and love it.

Mainly stripper and large mouth but if a large trout swims across me i wouldn't turn my back on it. Lots of guys also go for cat fish. I have also speared some pretty large pike.

we got more hogs than can be killed by hunters here, they have become a real nuisance. if i have time this weekend i might run out to the lease or my brothers ranch and try to shoot a few. during hunting season they turn completely nocturnal and are hard to kill, now that their not being pressured so much, they should be coming to the feeders during daylight hours.

Hunt and fish? HELL YES!!!

Love to fish salt and fresh water. Also love to hunt deer & turkey. Wanna get into duck hunting this year... I just never knew anyone that could show me the ropes until recently. Picked up a Benelli Super Black Eagle 2 a month ago as insurance to make sure I get out duck hunting this year.

I've never hunted hogs before, but I want to. We don't have them up here in southern New England.

heck yeah. do a lot of bow hunting for deer. used to do a LOT of surf and kayak fishing, but family life has taken its toll on that the last few years. here's a buck from this year, was my biggest at that point (pretty big for my area). Got a 12 a little after him.

and a nice striper I got a few years ago.

Love to fish. I don't hunt much though. I got plenty of guns, they just aren't suitable for shooting animals... least not the feathered or the four legged kind. :)

Bow fishing is my favorite. Buddies and I get a big ass ice chest full of beer and walk down rivers at night with flood lights. Lasts all night usually or until we run out if booze. Good times.
