Not a banner day but scratched the itch
Fished 8-11:30 1st & 2nd bridge & rubble pile by pumphouse. Bridges both big producers but fish mostly small. I had 2 over 12 and that was the biggest but cripes I musta caught 40. Had I wanted any I coulda put together a good meal of 10"+ fish but returned everything. Used slip float on 1 rig with minnow and 1/32 plain head jig with various bodies, sometimes w, sometimes w/o minnow. Caught 2 pretty hefty musky, and quite a few white perch.
Water almost 85 degrees, bluebird sky, nice breeze. When I got to the ramp they were just finishing mowing the parking area for me. Had to be me it was for, I was the lone ranger there till noon anyway. Made a short day of it, am in the middle of mowing lawn right now. No pics, had camera with but only took 1 and not of fish.
Doodle, I am disappointed in my brother giving you that pic. He's done crap like that ever since I went upside his noggin with a rock one day when we were kids. Atleast he had his wits about him enuf to show you the way to the neighbors garden. He may have a real bad case of the dumba$$ but he will not bite the garden that feeds him.
That pic ought to be self-explanatory: I whispered just a tad too hard upside
Ol Bucks' head trying to drive my point home and a closer look at his glassy eyes should tell ya he's out cold. I rolled him over and have assumed the position to administer artificial resuscitation. When I lean forward to plant a liplock on him to blow in, it extends his front legs forward and up, clearing his air passage. Then after blowing in I jump up and draw my legs up so when I land it is with my full weight on his chest to aid in exhalation.
You always want to have a witness present when resuscitating a horse because any misinterpretation of what is going on by passersby or bystanders can lead to a stretch in the crowbar motel on downright disgusting charges. It also tends to lower ones' status with agencies like the
American Alliance of Friends of Horses.
