O.K guys, seasons over and everyone went home. A few points to clear up. Your right, there are a lot of red, white and blue plates doing the same thing. The deal is they seem to know when to pull over and let someone drive past. A lot of people work in the woods and could care less if they see deer or not. Its a long drive when your behind someone who is convinced that you want to get past them to get to that 6 point thats for sure standing around the next corner.. or the next or maybe the one after that... A freind a few years ago was driving up one of the creeks going up to fix some fence. Came around the corner and there in the middle of the road, both doors wide open, engine running was a chevy pick up. Nobody was around. He turned off the key and yelled down the hill.. way down in the bottom came the reply..."we got one !!!!" ... Good for you... I'm gonna move your truck.. O.K... from way down in the bottom "O.K".. So he pulls it to the side, turned it off, and locked the keys in the cab. Thats pretty harsh!!!
I showed this to some of the guys I hunt with and they came up with a list of how you can tell a local from a Wa State hunter.
1> Local, Truck is a piece of crap. Wa guy, loaded diesel with winch and no front plate. ATV in back
2> Local, looking for his third deer of the
year and still has his tag. Wa guy, paid a fortune for his tag and can't get his GPS to work
3> Local, told his wife he would be hunting all day but somehow wound up at the bar. Wa guy told his wife he was going hunting in Idaho and brought some gal from the office with him (camp cook)
4> Local, his wife wants to know how he spent 60 bucks to go hunting for 1 day (SAT IN BAR) Wa guys wife wants to know how he put 700 bucks on the Chevron card and whats this charge on the visa card to the silver shoe in spokane ???
5> My wife.. wonders why I read this just about every day... Your wives.. wonder the same thing about you you guys.
Hope you get your rain, we could use some too..
