Bailiffs.

Anglers wear camo so they blend in the background when the water is clear so there shadow doesn't spook the fish   The council workers will be wearing it for the people that go mooching on tips and

For fishing no problem, I wear a little especially when I'm trotting a line, however people who wear cammo at Game Fairs....well that makes me chuckkle each and everytime I see it.

I wear Deerhunter RAM jackets trousers, and so do my lads because;

A) when setting traps/snares or building trapping points, casual observers are less likely to spot you.

when lying out with my rifle whacking corvids off a carcass, the sound of a rifle shot reverberating around the hills again attracts attention, which for me is unwanted. Wearing cam allows me to lie out undetected for those few minutes after the shot and until casual observers lose interest in what they have heard.

C) Civilian cam patterns mimic the natural contrast in nature which as a result breaks up the natural outline of the hunter provided they use it wisely.

D) A whole host of other reasons, for not wanting to stand out while enjoying my sport.

 

I don't wearing it any other time, and I agree, why wear it at gamefairs etc. I also understand that some people only have one set of hunting/shooting/fishing clothes, and they shouldnt get knocked for that.

 

Sometimes I will be decoying with my lad, and we will be in nothing other than a bed of rushes, no more than knee height. I will go out to the patern to pick up a shot crow, look back at the firing position and think, "bloody hell, he blends in really well" I wouldnt be thinking that if he was just in his jeans and blue waterproof jacket.

 

I am a little confused with this post, but hey, each to their own.
