done Posted October 14, 2010 Posted October 14, 2010 So I always carry my 40 in my tacklebox and this led to a discussion with my bud about how his father refuses to fish with anyone who carries a gun in the boat. Here is why: He and his bud are out fishing in a 14 ft wide bottom jon boat on a lake in FL. They are out just a short time but far from the dock working a cove. Out of nowhere a snake falls into the boat. Without missing a beat is buddy pulls his .380 revolver out of the holster, and before he can say anything, he empties the thing on the snake, turning his jon boat into an expensive colander and sending them both racing back to the dock while bailing water trying to stay afloat until they can get out of the water. I just about died hearing this so I thought I would share. I have spoken to his dad about it and he mentioned his weariness about me carrying my 40 (cause it has larger round and more of them). I told him it ain't for snakes, it is for the more dangerous animal you run into at the docks on rare occasion. Quote

MMan16 Posted October 14, 2010 Posted October 14, 2010 That's one trigger happy fella. I would think a machete would be a better safer choice. Quote
