Like that tag on the truck.Must be a story behind that?
Thanks Bob, Ireally like shooting Snipe! Takes those unsportsmanlike trees and thickets out of a good woodcock shoot!

Those are affinity plates for the Coastal Conservation Asssociation (CCA) that I am proud to have been the Chairman of the Board for the past 10 years. And the 8AFLY is my homage to my love for fly fishing, particularly saltwater flats fly fishing.

Maybe that is why I like Snipe shooting so much! It is like a combination of wadefishing and quail hunting!

Makes sense now.I see the what you mean about the similarities of the two.
I know there is something about a sxs and a fly rod that attracts a lot of us.
Actually driving home yesterday had a flock of snipe flush off the shoulder of the road right in front of me.Thought they were dowitchers at first but one parted out and flew right next to me.I could see him clear as a bell.Wished I had a good camera with me all afternoon.

41 here in deep South Texas today! Much more comfortable trudging the marsh, and the Snipe cooperated,
