Default RE: Hunting slang?

Here's some I noticed in Florida. I came from Maryland

1. Looky Heah....usually what an older black man calls out to you from a jon boat showing off his stringer of fish with a smile.

2. Good ins........ Little bit better than average keeper fish.

3. Slabs............Serious lunker panfish

4.Fryhards.......4/5inch .Bluegills that should have been thrown back but the fisherman is so hard up that he keeps them. Frys the whole fish.

5. Jumpers....Grass shrimp, used mostly for catching specks.

6. Flippin Stick..long fishing rod for reaching in and jigging worms or jigs in thick cover .

7.Tacked up...When a hunting place has illuminated tacks in the trees or brush to help a hunter find his way in the dark.

8. Quota.......A piece of paper that you get to allow you to hunt a certain WMA.

9. Did you get drawn?..What your hunting friends ask you concerning your signing up for certain WMAs

10. Dropplings....usually pertaniing to deer poop.

11. Buck Fever...Usually so caught up with the awe of the situation ...that your deer walks away as you stand there with your mouth open

12. Long range rifle...Usually the hunters excuse to himnself or wife for buying a another rifle.
