Scared the crap out of me and here comes Ol man Fowler and his clan with guns blaring......scared the bejesus out of that bear. Never seen that bear again.

Sorry to say he really didn't know any one or anything the last 8or 9 years. Really sad. Him and his wife both always treated me just like one of their kids. Was really rough on my buddy last few years because they were pretty close. I can just see him gittin after that bear. Big and strong as he was he didn't need a gun.

Ticks and Fleas are all over Horseshoe in warmer weather.

For those obviously NOT in the know, ticks and fleas are what real fishermen call ski boats, pontoons (ticks) and SeaDoo's (fleas)!!! LMAO

Sorry to hear about Mr Fowler. Always enjoyed visiting with him when he had the store open. He seemed to really go downhill after his wife died.

we refer to the fancy dancy big boats with all the females on board as cooties!!
