Interesting Topic....

[Guest]

What figures from history or fiction, living or dead, would you like to go fishing/hunting with? Why?

FISHING: Edgar Rice Burroughs - if the action was slow, he'd be fun to listen to.

CAMPING: Thomas Edison - it would be cool to see what gear he'd choose in this modern world.

Fishing- Ernest Hemingway

Camping- Marilyn Monroe

[Lip RIPPER!]

Hugh Hefner and his wives!

History shows He knew where to throw the net!

Stephen Dawg

Jesus is a good person to fish with...I do it all the time. I seem to be swearing less and less when I loose a brand new Rapala.

I think right now it would be fun to hook up with Al Linder or Jim Moyer. I guess if that dosn't happen...Fishhead will do!

WET NETS!

Jim Moyer is a hoot Dark30, you would have a blast fishing with Big Jim. Great guy and he knows his cats!

In the posthumous category I think Marilyn Manroe would be a good pick. Maybe Cleopatra, she had a really cool river boat I hear.

What more could you asp for?

[Jim W]

All great answers, especially fishing with Jesus. That's a no brainer!

I would have to say ice fishing with Jerry Garcia on LOTW. So when the bite is slow we can just sit in the heated shack and listen to some fine jammin'!!!

My Grandpa, I never met him but I hear he was a good fisherman. I've seen pictures with him holding pike that are probably 25 pounds. I also enjoy fishing with my dad.

Good Fishin, Matt.

Aldo Leopold....
Theodore Roosevelt....
Elle McPhearson!

I would pick my grandpa. I was to young to remember fishing with him much. I was 5 or 6 when he died but from photos and stories I know he was a wonderful man and a great fisherman too.

Carlos Hitchcock - I would like to see those 2500 meter shots with a 50 cal. As a Marine Corps Sniper in Vietnam.

I know I'll probably get major sh-t for this one, but for hunting, the first thing that pops into my mind is "that D.C. sniper has a pretty good aim..." (sorry - just kidding; I don't hunt anyway).
But fishing, I love fishing... I'd take Sean Connery. I think he'd be great to hang out with, not to mention, listen to & look at!

That's sick. Sick and wrong. I'm laughing. That's sick and wrong.

[fishinphyl]

Well, I don't hunt, but for a nice, warm, leisurely day on the lake I would take George Strait. Of course I would take George Strait on a cold day on the lake too!

I'd take Loulou from Hee-Haw along with a sack of flour.

Considering that you would have to spend a considerable amt of time considering things.....What if the fish weren't biting and time allowed the topic to wander a bit.

This topic does bring up some really interesting thoughts....I could list alot of people who I would love to talk with if given the chance. Sure I would love to fish with Jesus in the flesh....That would be really heavy....Talk about stage fright! I remember having a dream once when I was a kid. I was sittin in an old wooden boat fishing and drinking Budwieser with Alice Cooper....Ya I know! What if you got stuck fishing with someone you don't think you like.....Maybe your feelings would change...You never know. What about fishing with someone not famous like the little girl in another country who is starving.... or the guy who died in the belly turret of a B-17 in WWII.... or the old guy sittin on the bank fishing with a bobber and some crawlers....That list could go on and on.

A few people said "Dad" or "Grandpa" or maybe an old friend here or not. I think if you haven't fished with someone you love....Hurry up! Its ok if you your on some serious fish with some serious people ....but Its ok if their not biting and you have a little time on your hands too.

Now that alot of people think I'm goofy....I don't mind fishing with just me and my imaginary friend either..."Whats that Roy??....Of course I have a license to fish with two lines!!"

I forgot about Camping....Today I get to acompany my son (The New Boy Scout) on his first overnight campout. I wonder if I can still do it without all the comforts of the campground! So lets see....matches,pillow,m&m's,swiss army shovel,map,cell phone.......What?! no fishing rods?!! AARRGGGGG!!

I hear there are a couple of wolves running around down in the park not to mention the Creature himself! (note to self) Check flashlight batteries!

Hey Dark:
If I were you, I'd cheat & bring along a pair of battery-operated wool socks & maybe a bunch of hand warmers!
