When hunting from a boat, what is a safety practice you should follow?

Stand up to shoot for better accuracy
Keep the firearm loaded at all times
Inform someone of your hunting plan
Drink alcohol for warmth

The correct answer is: Inform someone of your hunting plan

When hunting from a boat, it is important to follow safety practices to ensure the safety of yourself and others. Option A is incorrect because standing up while shooting from a boat could cause the boat to become unsteady and potentially tip over, leading to injury or drowning. Option B is incorrect because it is never safe to keep a firearm loaded at all times, especially when in a boat where accidental discharges or mishandling can be particularly dangerous. Option D is incorrect because consuming alcohol while hunting is illegal and can also impair judgement and lead to dangerous situations. This makes option C, informing someone of your hunting plans, the correct answer. This allows others to know your location and when you are expected to return, making it easier to find you in case of an emergency.
