What is the best thing you ever found while hunting or fishing?
I found a bag with 3 boxes of new live 308 factory ammo at the range today. Receipt in the bag. Reminded me of the sweet Gerber Multi-Tool I found at a fishing spot last summer - thing was totally new with not a sharpening scract on the main blade. Out on the ATV's - my wife has spotted knifes, a nice helmet, and a cargo strap by the trail.
What cool things have you found - that you know the owner is bumming he lost it?
Well, I was bumming over a lost item. Then, a year later, while hunting in the same area, I found my lost item. I knew that it was mine when I found it again, a bit dirty, half buried and a bit stained. How could I know that it was mine, you might ask? Easy, is my answer, for only an utter and complete MORON would lose a pair of Swarovski 10X42 binoculars, that same incredibly lucky idiot finding them a year later. I have not the slightest CLUE as to how nobody else found them before I returned to that spot the following year. As to how I found them (not even looking for them), it's simple.
I stubbed my toe against the binocular's body while tracking game, all but falling on my...well...you know.
P.S. On that same hunt, I found a German made Boker hunting knife (rare!). I started to pick it up, then stopped myself, thinking that there was another moron (like me), out there that might return to trip over it, and take it home.
