I've got one that came from the bayous of Louisiana:

Make sure there is a solid river bottom before you step one foot outta the boat.

All good lessons.

I'll add another. There's not much cooler than taking your kid hunting and watch them witness things for the first time. (Even if it is a slow day, they don't seem to mind. Just like being out there.) I know some older hunters that could benefit from that philosophy.

You don't have to pee until you get UP in your tree stand. (This increases with frequency after you hit 50)

Do not trust a 22 year old who holds the permit for any opening day draw hunt to answer the bell in the morning...

If you have an ingrown toenail, wait untill the season is over to get it removed.

my list goes,

1. if you brag too much on your dog he will eventually make you look foolish

2. canvasbacks [when spooked ] are very very very fast.

3.icy water [ in your waders] is still as cold as it was last year.

4.it doesn't matter if there is 100 birds committed , my two buddies and me are gonna shoot the same bird.

5.when you add it all up duck meat is at least $50 a pound

6. It is a gift from GOD just be there .

7. can't wait til next year.
