Shooting fish in a barrel.

The phrase had to come from somewhere, and since guns are needed to shoot (well, yes, there are bows and arrows.. but who is going to reach into a fishy barrel to retrieve their arrows?) there is the connection.

FWIW, around here, certain seasons it looks like Duck Dynasty* on steroids. I don't see hunting dying out in these parts.

*more deer and turkey, but the guns and camo is the comparison.
