That's me. Care to give me some words of wisdom why i need to get act together before it's too late. Just look at this photo. This is what we do. Amazing.

Very neat picture either way. One can enjoy the roses without smelling them. Some may even find the fragrance not that appealing. aka Pond Doctor & Dr. Perca Read Pond Boss Magazine - America's Journal of Pond Management

Somebody "shared" it on my Facebook page and I fell in love with it. Metaphorically speaking, I refuse to take a moment and just enjoy all the wonderment of pond bossing. I've definitely got a problem. Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.

As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons. Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even the dull and the ignorant; they too have their story.

Take a break from trying to improve the fish, and let the fish improve you for awhile. Your lake locked up tight enough yet? "Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

You have a way of distilling the experience down to it's core. Food, fun, fellowship...throw in a little ChefTodd and you've got all it takes. Holding a redear sunfish is like running with scissors.
