My only defense is that if I wasn't out hunting and fishing.....I would be taking that money and be out drink'n and smoke'n and gamble'n and chase'n women!
Now that I think about it....maybe I'll change my.....Na, I'll stick with hunt'n and fish'n!

Save this for the day that the freezer dies and you have to call your homeowners insurance agent.
My cousin had that happen. 1/2 moose, 1/2 Elk, at least 1 deer and 1/2 bighorn ram. He came home from being gone a week and smelled it when he went into the garage. Adjuster said he needed the packages of meat counted. My cousin said I will meet you here at 9am tomorrow so you can verify the count.
The adjuster took my cousin's estimation. Luckily there was a work crew down the street with a forklift. It got forked into the back of his PU truck, and he drove to a buddies place out in the country, hit the brakes while in reverse and the whole thing slid out of the truck into the field. His buddy shot coyotes for a LONG time there.

It is priceless. Always laugh hearing folks say they hunt for the free meat. At the time I was far from free but if you can convince yourself that is fine.
When you fry up that filet and remember the day you caught that fish is much better than remembering picking up the bag of tilapia filets. That has to be worth some of the extra cost

There is nothing I enjoy more than cooking up some sort of wild caught fish or animal that I harvested and remembering that trip or hunt.
Learning how to cook wild and make it gourmet is a challenge my wife and I enjoy,especially during the cold winter months.

I just spent close to 350 on 4 perch 4 eyes and one pike all together maybe 6 or 7 lbs of meat but I can offset some of that cost by the 15 quarts of blueberries I picked
Im not counting that 48 dollar bottle of Crown I bought up there that’s all on me
