    Well I think that would fit in with my job, Im a Self Employed Fly Fishing, and Upland Bird HuntingGuideand the Wife trains and sells German Shorthaired Pointer Pupsin Northern Michigan. I could squeeze in a few filmed Bowhunts out of State if someone wants to pay me for it

    Nope.

    I have been there done that and wont go back to full time hunting for a living it is just too much hard work and not the glamour you see on tv.
