rocketwheels Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Went out into the hills tonight with a few friends doing a little recon/hunting for some Coyotes that have been taking down cattle on my friends family farm. Around dark, and after doing a little of this... ...we set out across the pastures and up into the hills and woods, crossing several flooded creeks and bounding over rocks and fallen timber. We parked for a while to let the quiet take over again, did some more :cheers: while we was :chillin: . After a while we used a couple Coyote calls, didn't get any responses , but could hear things moving all around us in the woods. We pull out the Spotlights to check around us and my buddy that is the "marksman" :brows: reaches into the cab to retrive one of the rifles and guess what happens? , BLAM !! He blows a hole in my floorboard. I guess in the excitement of the moment and pitch black darkness these things can happen. :thwak: At this point, the hunt has become :rotfl2: , so we and :chillin: a little while longer, then we :driving: up the trail a bit further. I've got all my lighting in working order and we eventually roust a couple of coons. This time my buddy the "marksman":dunce: is on his game and cracks the bugger right between the eyes from about 150 feet and 60 feet up in a tree. So we are :banana: and :cheers: and we back down the mountain. Ole stock height 2wd Sgt. Rock didn't have anything bad to say about the trip, even after sitting in that chicken coupe for the last 7 years. Water did come in throught the door seals at times, but since I have a new drain hole , no problem! We get back to the farm and a few more brews while :chillin: , then we decide to check on the truck to see what damage may have been inflicted. It was basically a , didn't hit the tranny or anything important, just went throught the floorboard and sheared the rusty exhaust pipe (it needs replaced anyways). It was great fun in the old MJ, plan on doing it again soon, except there will be more and :chillin: and hopefully a litle less . Ive included a link for tonights photo in case it goes :redX: like the rest of my pics have lately :hmm: . This is a shot of my friend Haybailler laying hand on both of tonights kills..... http://images21.fotki.com/v577/fileobx6 ... C00001.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rocketwheels Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 ....well, I thought about another round of Coyote hunting this weekend. Then I came to my senses and decided to go Crappi fishing. Yeah, thats way safer than Coyote hunting.....except, the guy that owns the boat is the same guy that shot my truck :roll: .....I'll let yall know how it turns out :chillin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketwheels Posted March 11, 2007 Author Share Posted March 11, 2007 .....so we went fishing instead of Coyote hunting, ....warm day here in N. Alabama, low 40's at day break, into the 60's mid day and a mild wind. The Crappi have turned off in the deeper holes in Lake Guntersville, so we slid up into the shallows around docks and boat houses. Picked up one fair sized Crappie and and 3.8 lb Large Mouth. Wasn't a stellar day, but hey, we was fishing ! 8) http://images22.fotki.com/v724/file78Yz ... C00028.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know California's badging, but I assume it's sheriff with the tan uniform and star, but think forest service with the green hat. If that's a police truck, wow would I have some tickets.

Tracker Posted March 11, 2007 Share Posted March 11, 2007 Fish and Game actually. Not to hijack the thread but that old '99 short bed and I do get around. With a 5.9, 3.92's, LSD, and knowing that someone else will pay to fix it, I get into places where I get to hear my favorite line: "I never thought I'd see you here:mad:".

That would absolutely make my day to see the expressions on guys faces that thought they could get away with something cause they figured the boonies were beyond the reach of the long arm of the law. :D I may have found my calling in life...
