We used to hunt years ago, kinda got out of it for awhile. My husbands parents own a trapline so we spend time out there and the kids love it. They are into hunting big time--they usually go up to Ft. St John every fall for Elk season, and they usually luck out with a moose and a few deer. We still like to fish and my Grampa has a boat that he charters on the saltchuck (Kitimat). The last time we were out there was the summer of '05. We had a really good time, got our limit in crab, Eric got a salmon, and we all got some halibut. We spent 5 days out there on the boat, and boy I tell you it was sure nice to get off onto dry land after that!! lol!!

I grew up doing both, unfortunately as far as the hunting I was just a tag along with my parents. I asked them the other day, why did you never teach me to shoot a gun after all the guns, shooting and hunting they did. They never even thought about it they said. So I went to hunter safety, and now I love to hunt. I have a 20 gauge that I love to shoot trap with, my .22 for varmets, my colt .45 for my concealed carry (yes I have my permit), and my featherweight .25-06 for hunting game (deer and elk). I have not hunted every year, but I try to at least get out and scout em out!!! I also have a bow, that I would love to hunt with, I just do not have near enough practice yet and hubby just rifle hunts :( .

LOVE to archery hunt elk - the BEST! (I even called one in too close too fast last year and got STEPPED ON! - by an ELK!)
Also, big game hunting - have some pretty nice trophies.
Been lucky drawing tags so already have a moose & mountain goat...just waiting on the tag for a bighorn.
Love fishin too, altho' for now, it involves setting up worms for the kiddos and making sure they don't hook each other. ;o)
