What's new

Archie Moses and I went on a date.

Looks like a rainbow to me. How did you determine it was a Koke? I can never tell differences so I throw them all back to be safe.
 
I don't know what they do with the fish, but um, fish are food. When I catch fish I usually make them for dinner.

I'm going to assume that you've never gone hunting before, Enes. If you ever ind yourself in north 'Mericuh, a hunting/fishing trip to the Rockies is highly recommended. The actual hunting part is probably only 20% of the experience.

Just messing with them, I spent my childhood near a big big lake where the fishing is a daily routine, so fishing is just boring to me, plus I don't like fish, the food, so my mercy is for them, did you know any kind of fish have also character like most of the other animals and livings? I have close friends from faculty of Fisheries in the college, I spend a lot of time in their faculty around their fish tanks and very big aquariums, some of the more intelligent fish even know me when I go there. And my friend knows their different personalities. I think it's amazing.

But on the other hand, I do hate some of the hunting kinds, especially the ones which they do for "sport".

I hunt big game for sport. It's necessary here and much more humane than winter starvation kills or getting eaten alive by a cougar.

This is the small buck I took last year on the general draw muzzle loader hunt. I put a .50 caliber slug in his *** and another in his heart. I normally wouldn't shoot such a small buck but this one had some cool character on one of the right tines that I wanted to get a closer look at.

@franklin, Then I hate you big time. It's necessary to reduce human population you know, so I will hunt you for sport some time, it's better than getting killed by the most killer living(human) on the planet some day.

I will go to Canada for my education in a few years, so wait for me...
 
I don't get the appeal of hunting, but fishing is pretty relaxing. I guess some people can get pretty into it and take it too seriously, but just fishing on a boat or a dock is always a nice way to chill.

Some men have man instincts and some don't...
 
OK, very nice lake and view, idyllic place etc but...

What the hell do you want from the poor fishes? I never understand the hunting. Birds, deers, gazelles, fishes etc are poor livings, what have they done to you?

Man, you're already the superior livings. Especially you two, Trout and Moses, one is fat the other is very tall, how can you satisfy your manhood against these little fishes? If you're man enough come here and try to hunt me!

Your string is hanging out.

13 years of Canadian education (in Alberta, mind you) has done nothing but taught me about the great things about hunting, and how crucial it is to get out and become one with the wilderness. You're in for a surprise :)

I also thought it was a Rainbow at first. It had some of the bluest lines running along its back that I've ever seen -- and I've seen more rainbow trout than probably anyone here -- and it wasn't slimy like most trout, but had a rougher, more scaly body. Also, we asked a couple of regulars out there what they thought of it, and they said it was definitely not a rainbow, and even thought it could be a Silver Salmon. Found this online: "the sockeye salmon is called the kokanee or silver trout when it resides in fresh waterways." I'm going to go with the local guys who know more than me. Either way, it was an amazing fish.

Small one? Haha, please. I have no desire to murder big beautiful animals, but if other people do, that's fine by me. I understand population control, etc. and I LOVE deer and elk meat.
 
I really don't think that was a koke, but if you insist.

Apparently they gotta watch out for you:)

Lol, I don't want to hack the guy's thread but it's pretty clear for me, being human is using good abilities(such as finding solutions to the problems) of human as much as possible, not being as much as natural. I had sufi education from my early childhood, killing is the LAST option for me. Hey at least it's an option, so yeah I'm wild as much as you are!
