Default hunting / fishing priest

hi i know this isnt a stick or cane but thought this would be the most apt section to post. I was asked to make a "fishing priest" for a friend by his wife. Duly made from Red deer antler and Ash handle with Ash blank end where antler tine was. then pyro'd a jumping Bass. showed it to my mates wife......"why the fish" she asked....well you asked fro a "fishing priest" i said. well he wants it for shooting, pheasant mostly and didnt know what to call it....try hunting priest?
so sanded off fish and then pryo'd pheasant.
hope you like.

(called a "priest" in the UK because it gives the last rites to fish....or pheasants in this case. not sure what they are called in U.S.)
