Pond Boss Forums INTRO Questions & Observations Thanks....and farewell.

I heard tale that a Karmex study at MSU showed evidence that the fish became stronger, it was linked to a story about Bonds & steroids. The funny part was how did they actually know...a gill press ?

I want frogs with 4 hind legs...I was on vacation when the march of the crawdads was posted. Just read it. Shorty, that is one for the books.

Bullfrog tadpoles are large and brown/gray, leapards change into frogs when very small.
This reminds me of my buddy Boudreaux:

Boudreaux been fish'n down by de bayou all day and he done run outa night
crawler baits. He be bout reddy to leave when he seen a snake wif a big frog
in his mouf. He knowed dat dem big bass fish like dem frogs, so he decided
to steal dat froggie. Dat snake, he be a cotton mouf water moccasin, so he
had to be real careful or he'd git bit. He snuk up behin' dat snake and
grabbed him roun de haid. Dat ole snake din't lak dat one bit. He squirmed
and wrap hisself roun' Boudreaux's arm try'n to git hisself free. But
Boudreaux, he had a real good grip on de snake's haid, yeh. Well, Boudreaux
pried his mouf open and got de frog and puts it in his bait can. Now,
Boudreaux knows dat he cain't let go dat snake or he's gonna bite him good,
but he had a plan. He reach into de back pocket of his bibs and pulls out a
pint a moonshine likker.
He pour some drops into de snake's mouf. Well, dat snake's eyeballs kinda
roll back in his haid and his body go limp. Wit dat, Boudreaux toss dat
snake into de bayou. Den he goes back to fishin'. !
A while later Boudreaux dun feel sumpin' tappin' on his barefoot toe.
He slowly look down and dare wuz dat water moccasin wif two more
frogs........

I did enjoy the scouts. Not many merit badges, and no rank above First Class, but I wouldn’t trade the memories for anything, and having a great scoutmaster who lived the values of scouting helped mold my life and many others.

Mudcat Joe, on the other hand, sez the bestest thing about them scouts is the snipe hunts. “Heck, one time, they took me out, and them worthless scouts musta’ got lost, ‘cause I never seen them no more that night. I never saw no snipe, neither, but I know they done their best for me, so next day I found a hognose snake and left it in their tent for them to play with. Sorta a pet, don'cha know. When they went in to go to sleep, that hog nose musta’ thought they wuz after him, ‘cause he reared up and flared out like a cobra. I could see his shadder on the tent wall, and it was downright purty, but it shore looked big in that lanternlight. Them scouts musta' scared off every snipe in the country with all their yelling and carryin on,” Mudcat sez, with a far away look in his eye. “They scared the hognose, too. He jes’ rolled over like he was ded and proceeded to stink up the place somethin’ awful. Yep, I shore did like that snipe hunt, but they never asked me no more. I don't know why.”

ML :

Like George's goats those CG ( Bill's quote " flying toilets" ) can be very aggressive. They love new fall grass and will pick a area clean and leave piles for you to deal with. See the PB link from early this year on 20 geese = 1 cow.

Brettski,

No offense taken, at all.

I understand full well what a fowl bird (water turkeys in my case) can do. The Canadas are very rare here and hence, their appearance is just a delight (but I also subscribe to the Ben Franklin addage that fish and visitors stink after three days ).

ML, how is the new propane cannon working?

ML :

Don't stand near those birds when the cannon goes off. They will take off and make a deposit on you quicker than a bass strike.

This doesn't have much in common with the thread but is a funny story just the same. About fifteen years ago there was a guy who used to feed the Canadian geese at a lake in Rochester Minnesota. The city for the most part hated the birds, lots of crapping, getting in the way of cars etc.. A large flock living year round in this partially heated lake. Some people would park their cars by the lake and feed the birds bread, So after a spell the birds became very tame. A mother and her daughter were feeding the geese one day, when the little girl noticed that a goose that had gone under one of the parked trucks and did not come back out. She told her mother about the bird and the two of them watched a second goose disappear the same way. They explained this to a cop who was driving through the parking lot. When the officer went to investigate the four wheel drive truck, he noticed while talking to the driver, that a large hole had been cut out of the trucks passenger floor board and broken pieces of bread in the seat above. This guy was waving the bread through the hole, and when the poor goose would poke his head up into the truck, the enterprising hunter would grab the neck of the bird, spin it around a few times and throw them behind the seat. They found out later on that this old guy had been doing this for years. Maybe we could find this fella and send him ML's way.
