Bob, I recently got stuck by some Barbed wire(bob wahr). It made 2 punctures about an inch apart that scabbed over. About a week later 2 of my Granddaughters, 12 and 16, came over. One noticed it and asked what happened. I told them "Aw, I got rattler bit again.". One asked what happened. I told them that it made me mad so I broke its damn neck. It took about a minute for them to wise up when one told the other that Grandpa was lying again and that snakes didn't have necks. I told them that they do have necks, just not shoulders.
They're both blondes so I'll get them again.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
