Fish/Hunt Camp Survival Tips

I did some brainstorming last night for the following list. Did I miss any?

  • Treat chili with the same care as you would any potential bio-hazard
  • Waking up at the ‘crack of noon‘ is perfectly normal
  • What is said in the camp STAYS in the camp
  • Assume there is NO toilet paper in the outhouse
  • The NEW person always gets the worst bed
  • The ‘ORF’s (Old Retired Farts) like telling stories – get used to them
  • Bunk Watch – a state of horizontal contentment that is reached when the wood stove releases the perfect amount of heat that is proportional to the amount of cold rain falling on the cabin roof
  • Remember – someone has to the dishes. It might as well be you.
  • Cell phones are subject to confiscation and can only be used for target practice or anchoring
  • Missed deer, or lost fish, are direct results of the angler’s or hunter’s abilities – NOT the jacket they are wearing!
  • One shot fired means deer is down, multiple volleys fired means dear is gone.

    Fish/Deer are always bigger in camp then they were in the field
