I don't care if you're on the river, out on the sound, on the ocean seas.. There's a brotherhood between boat owners. Sure, ya'll are out there fighting for position for the same lunker fish in that favorite hole, but there's the safety factor when boating, that things can get real ugly really fast, that brings that brotherhood together just as fast. A stranded boat gets help from people that boat owner doesn't even know. -unlike that stranded motorist on the side of I-5 that's blocking a lane.

Thats a fact right there, I can't think of a distress call out on the salt here where by the time we get to the boat and launch we get to the boat in distress before one or usually more private boats responding to the distress call. Good on all you willing to help, sometimes I think sportsman are wired a bit different than the general public.

A long time hunting buddy and I were in the woods north of Lyman, in what's now known as the prime Nooksack Elk run. We were hunting Blacktail and Blackbear and had been in the woods in the thick for some six hours. We decided to wander back to the truck/camp for lunch. It was a very chilly morning with a dusting of snow on the ground. We came out to the road and had no idea there were so many rigs parked near our camp. (more than two would mean that there's an issue in the woods) There were probably 10 S&R rigs and another 10 hunter trucks. I walked down the road to find a deputy at the command tent. Got all the particulars that there was a kid that left his dad to hunt a draw to the east, and never came back up to the road the evening before. Just like the rest of the hunters that had the news, we put our rifles in the rig, got a bite to eat, switched out some gear and hit the woods searching a grid we were assigned. The 17yr old spent the night under a windfall and walked out on his own, once he found a bridge across the river down stream a couple hours after we started. Lucky kid. Flannel shirt, jeans, and cowboy boots. I know damn well his night in the woods was not comfortable. We never heard his shots after dark.
I was amazed at the few hunters on that road that did not take part in the search, but thankful that if it would have been me or one of my boys, that there were so many willing to jump into the brush with a search assignment.
