I was fishing the Spring River arm on the north end of Grand Lake in Oklahoma the weekend before last when I heard a dog howling.
My fishing buddies and I rescued the pup. I recorded the event and posted it to YouTube. To my surprise someone found the videos and wrote an article. I thought it was pretty neat.
I'm going to post the link below, if I am breaking any rules please remove or let me know and I will remove it.
Thanks
Men Gone Fishing Catch Something Better Than a Fish. A Puppy!

Great deed! And great job men!
Great deal guys.
Way to go guys! Glad you could get it in the boat with ya. Y'all will be richly blessed for what you did.:highfive
Way to go! Thanks! :)
Now thats worth the trip right there. Go fishing and bring a puppy home. Greag job fellas!
Those guys did a great thing. We may hunt and take fish but inside every outdoors person is a large streak of compassion. That video and those guys prove it. They could have gone on their way, glad they didn't. I have a dog that I got much in the same way. I found her in May of '09 and she is the poster dog for rescues everywhere. All we look for in a dog is there in her. My wife would dump me before she ever got rid of "Emma". I won't steal their thunder but I will post a couple of pics of the day she was found and as she is now. We talk often of how lucky we were to find her. We got the better end of the deal.
Good job men.
Always keep a collar with your name,phone number and address on your dog.
WTG guys!!!

We found the pup a good home. They named him Finn (Huckleberry Finn).
Awesome!!! I saw the comments under the video and the person who got him posted. Love it!!

Good job guys!!

Nice find and rescue.
I rescued a kitten at a shopping mall one year on my way to my mom's for Christmas. The wife, kids, and I stopped to do some last minute shopping in Wausaw WI.. I headed out to get the car and pull up to the door for them. I was parked in an attached parking garage and heard the cries of a kitten. It was a very busy parking garage and I was amazed I heard the cat at all. I found it wondering near my car. Opened the door and she jumped in. Needless to say, she rode in our laps for the next 4 hours as we drove to grandmas house in the north woods. That kitten passed last week due to old age. She lived a wonderful life in the northern woods. She got to hunt and play, hung out with other cats and a dog. She was skiddish around people and never came out when visitors came to Grandmas house. However, every time we came to visit, she came out to say high and curl up in our laps one more time. Her name was Lucky, as in "Lucky to be alive".
What a great rescue, thank you so much for being such a good person.I was on the Tennessee river in 2001 hunting many miles from the nearest home or farm.The coldest day of the year and night was approaching when I could hear a lonesome howl in the distance .When I finally located the sound coming from a overhang on the river bank.I had to get on my knees and whistled and this little pup ran out to my surprise .She was so small I couldn't imagine he surviving the night.
I carried this pup out in my jacket pocket is she talked to me for the next two mile hike back to the truck and home ,to my waiting wife in standing in the driveway. Gracey was named on the spot by the wife for God's good grace I found her.I thank God too because it this time my wife had lost both parents not that far apart.Finding this gift from God was the best healing for my wife, the love Gracey has given back to us is unconditional.
Great thread. WTG people.
