I used to all the time. I'd like to have the time for it again. I'd REALLY like to get down on the Ohio River at night and shoot some of the big Asian and Silver carp…...

Luke and I wade the creek behind our house and also go at night using a spotlight at our local reservoir. Also a slimy bloody mess.
