Making Guns Fit Like A Glove
When using a rifle or a pistol, size and weight matters if you want to ace.
A rifle is great when you are hunting bears or deer. In countries where hunting is legally allowed, this can be a sport that can be enjoyed by just about anyone including the kids and ladies. However, rifles and guns were not initially intended for their use. Since the adult male population originally dominated the sport, most of the firearms produced were made for their fit. What then is the option for the younger ones and the women who want to hunt and try out the sport? Should they just make do then with the ready-made options available to them?

Recently we returned from an epic trip down to Louisiana where we absolutely crushed big Redfish on the fly. Frigate Travel took a group of guests and we fished with Capt.Greg Dini and his crew at Flywater Expeditions. Many fish over twenty pounds, some over thirty, and a couple pushing forty. All sight fishing and some popper fishing as well.
It was a grand time to include amazing food in the Big Easy. As the photo above showed, the girls boat (k8 and Remi) kicked some butt one day and landed this fish among many many others. Thanks to all the guides for their patience, great attitudes, and winning personalities. We will be back!

Summertime for me means tacos and, in particular, fish tacos. In the past, we have only grilled the fish but now I’ve discovered how to beer-batter and I’m not sure we’ll ever go back to grilling. After testing with a few added taco components, we’ve settled on serving the battered-fish with a Cajun Slaw. Follow these easy directions for delicious… And don’t forget to get fishing on the Bay.
For the beer-battered fish…
In medium size bowl, whisk together 1 1⁄2 tbsp. salt, 1 1⁄2 cups flour, cornstarch, beer, and egg to make a batter.
Pour Canola oil into a 5-qt. Dutch oven to a depth of 2′; heat until a thermometer reads 375˚. Sprinkle fish with chili powder and salt. Put remaining flour on a plate. Dredge fish in flour; shake off excess.
Working in batches, dip fish in batter a...
