One does not shoot fish. One uses dynamite for this.
Get a 4" .357. Use it to learn proper shooting technique. Then put it in your car for a car gun.
Took a Brit friend shooting the other day. First time in his life he ever held a gun. He was pretty good too. Plus he was happier than a pig in slop :)
Excellent foreign relations!
I was at a Bass Pro Shops in Orlando. These British tourists were in the gun dept just amazed at all the guns for sale. They said they had never seen so many guns and couldnt believe people could just walk in and buy one.
I felt really sorry for them.
ROFLMAO. I recall in my college years that I lacked for some dynamite to go fishin' but I remembered something my ranger qualified buddy once told me on the subject. I found a nice deep creek and slow moving water. I found a low hanging branch dangling out over that water. Took some management, but I was able to get myself and a fully loaded 7mm magnum bolt rifle into the right position to fire a round straight down into the water without fear of bounce. Lo and behold, the concussion of the round entering the water was enough to stun some fish and they floated up for dinner. Now I admit that the recoil durn near knocked me into the creek and it wasn't any fun getting into or out of position without taking a tumble with the rifle, but it sure as heck was faster than plopping a rod and a worm into the water. Fed me and two roommates, too. All of us future army officers were quite smug sippin' beer that night after dinner. There is no single correct way to any conclusion. All is technique.
That’s not entirely true, I have caught trout with a 12 gauge.
