I try to leave the stink kitties home :grin: (under the barn) :grin: when I go fishing. Sometimes they hide in the boat and ruin the trip.
I haven't had this problem so far this year (my cane must scare them) but on Monday we must have been using rubber hooks! Seven takedowns but only one hook up!

The Umpqua was running a bit high, muddy, and cold :depressed: but I still brought home a nice 12 pound springer. :smile:
