A full grown common snapping turtle can jump and grab your pecker if standing directly over him.

You can eat all the raw tuna and snapper you want, but one raw piece of a sacalait will ruin your night unless you've always wanted to shite through a screen door while standing up.

Check for ticks behind your knees, in your belly button, and on the back of your sack.

A wounded deer's will to live is stronger than your desire to kill him. Keep this in mind when grabbing one before he/she has expired.

Always check your baitwell for the last pogey after a day of fishing.

A skunk can spray you after you shoot him.

Hunting dogs eat human feces for some reason, so plan your dump accordingly when dropping in the woods.

It's a bad idea to take a woman hunting, I don't give a damn who she is.

Always show up early. Never make a hunting or fishing partner wait for you.

Don't borrow a boat or tractor from your father-in-law unless you have the funds to replace it.

With just 2 people, and especially since you know and trust him a lot, I think you're fine. In a more standard duck hunting scenario, I wouldn't even consider it though.

Nah. I'd do this with yeti and a cousin of mine I grew up hunting with. Weiser and Yeti's roommate were both fairly inexperienced at the time. That's why we lost our cool.

You cant drown a wounded deer.

They enjoy breathing.

This and when the hunt is over, unload everything before picking up decoys.

Don't ever strip a rope into the boat through your hand when in commonly fished water. Instead pull it in hand over hand.

always check for wasps. assume they are there and are just hiding. When they aren't found, just assume you did a poor job of looking.

90% of my near accident accidents I think somehow revolve around the discovery and attack of bitching wasps.

Also, the two things you never want a treble hook to get lodged are earlobes and dogs. Getting a devilhorse unhooked from a 70 lb lab while in a 12-ft bateau is a task like none other.

Daughter got tired of fishing and laid down the rod on the ground. My catahoula ate the piece of hotdog that was on the tiny treble hook. Lodged right into her soft pallete. $700 vet visit to get that removed.

Lesson learned: watch what your kids do when on camping trips with the dog.
