Boy bluegill, that sounds sickeningly familiar.
It was guy I use to live with, nasty day, duck hunting, coldwater (christmas eve eve (12-23)), tiny jon boat. Then add a big goofy Newfoundland dog, in the open salt water.
The dog swam to shore, My friend didn't make it.
Not something I like to think about.
The simpler the outfit, the more skill it takes to manage it, and the more pleasure one gets in his achievements.
