you know you're a sportsman when....
 

Thought it would be fun to start a thread like this since most of the people on here hunt and fish.

1. You're wife has to drive over bridges because you get distracted looking to see if anyone is in your hole (happens to me going over the basin)

2. Read the word "founder" earlier and i said "flounder".

The first thing you pull up in the morning is salty cajun, weather channel, and noaa.

Or how bout u know you're a whiskey drinker when you pour yourself a coke and stir it with your finger. Did that the other day.

#1 reminds me if the time tht my fiancé and I were headed to my buddies camp to duck hunt and I locked up the brakes after I passed the road. My fiancé wakes up and is like "what the heck are you doin!". I was like uh... I was looking for rabbits on the shoulder and I passed up the road. She just shook her head and went back to sleep

That's a good. I slowed down to try to watch a guy reel in a fish. Apparently my wife and the guy behind me didn't feel the same way....

Or the mornin of fishin you stare at every flag on the way to see the direction and the first spot your gonna hit.....


Or check wind 100x on the way to the launch....

haha
 

when you ride close to the rail going over the basin bridge and spend more time looking in the woods and waters than you do actually watching the road:eek:




or you twist your head all sideways and upwards out the window or in the windshield trying to identify a flock of birds flying over:spineyes:

or when you pass a private pond and say "dang that looks like a nice pond to fish"

or you keep your polls in your truck to make a few casts during lunch breaks.

You know your a sportsman when.. you have made comments about the cows sitting or standing so many times that your wife now looks at them!! (my wife tells me everyday if the cows were laying or standing! lol)

You pull into a restaurant after fishing and your wife notices you push a button on the dash that DOESN'T exist, and you have no shame in saying "I was trying to put the power pole down."

Your boat stays in the garage and cars stay in the driveway.

You look at computer screens everywhere you go to see if someone else is on SC!

LOL. On the basin bridge as we speak reading this. Funny I'm doing all of that! Lol

You stare over the side while driving over 210 bridge in the morning to see if you know who is fishing the island.

At one point I was actually hanging out the window to look under the bridge to make sure i didnt miss anybody....:rolleyes:

When you go 80 down the highway to catch up to a rig to check out their boat. Not the safest thing but I just can't help myself sometimes.

Yep...you wonder if any body of water you pass or come in contact with has potential for fishing...

A ricefield full of ducks or a marsh full of ducks makes you break your neck while passing...

All the time...
Riding with your woman in the car and she says "what are you looking for?" And you're like "I'm looking for ducks".

haha... guilty :redface:

You know you're a sportsman when all you wear is red tuna club tshirts.

.... Because you make fun of all the people that are soooo salt life.

... Because you convince your fiance to plan your wedding in march when there isn't much hunting and fishing is still slow

...

On that note, cows were all laid down yesterday and we spanked em.

Lifetime clubmember I see!!! Good for, you you need a new hobby.

haha damn! Salt or freshwater?

Fresh. First time ever happened

Cows lay in the corner all the time, and old men say it's going to rain but 7/10 times it don't???

Haha that's why I got married in March!

wind
 

nice one

Blake, that's also when Bob is getting married. LOL

That would be me 100%!!!! Lol

Wow, my wife does the exact same thing LOL

When you scan over fields trying to identify any wildlife near or far.

The first thing you do after your honeymoon is go fishing. And, even fish during your honeymoon.

when your wife says she wants a baby and you say as long as we dont have it during the spawn.. and she understands!!!

lmao happened to me :D

When you take hwy51 instead of I55 so you can stop several times and fish the marsh on the way to the deer lease!

When you're fishing and see a duck and try to call at it with your mouth.

Ive got approved for a day of fishing on my honeymoon:D

When a black bird, dove, etc flys across your path as your driving and you lead it with your imaginary shotgun and yes you make the "shot" sound.......

When you'd rather drop a deuce in a 5 gallon bucket than on your own toilet!

When your fishing and see a flock of ducks and you make the gun noise when they pass by....pow pow pow i got yallz azz...lol

guilty

X2.....:work:

I just read the word founder as flounder in your post

Welcome to the club!

If my heart stops no need to shock me, just use a screaming clicker, thats what gets my heart pumping

My wife told me that when I had my offshore boat. She also recorded a clicker on my IPhone and used it as my alarm. I could be dead asleep on that boat and the clicker went off and and I was on the reel in less than a second. It would piss her off so much especially when the baby would cry and I would never hear her.

We were crabbing in the marsh Saturday, 4 ducks came around behind us and caught my eye. I quacked a few times they started cornering back to us (in between two bushes) and my girlfriend stands up and they cut back..."You flared em!!"

When your son smiles at the offer to skip a baseball game to go fishing

AND when your Christmas Day pics usually have everyone dressed up, but you're in camo and headed straight back out once presents and dinner are done!

I don't think I have ever taken a picture for thanksgiving dinner without camo on

Leaving Baton Rouge every Sunday evening heading back to college in Mississippi & only going back roads just to see Deer & turkeys! There wasn't a mailbox left standing on our route!
