Hay all plse forgive me for not posting, fishing has been spotty due to weather and run off, and now my very bestest fishing partner Fischer has gotten real sick, acute renal failure, still not sure what the cause is, good news is that the vet says he may come home tomorrow night! My heart has been heavy and worried, I would loose my best friend.

I have not prayed or cried this hard since I was 8yrs old and was told my Mother had died.. I have lived a blessed life and have a wonderful supporting family, I must never take them for granted and be thankful for every day!

Sorry to hear about your fishing buddy. I have missed your reports but it sounds like you have good reasons. Hope everything turns out well for you and your dog.

Get well soon Fischer.

Hi all

It has been a while, fishing here has been spotty due to torrential rains and big run off. It has been especially hard for me for this last week because my best Fur friend in the world has been deathly ill, Fischer experienced "Acute Renal Failure" and the cause is unknown, truly one of life's awful mysteries.

My self and the Vet have gone over every minute of the trip and can't come up with a cause, the good news is that Fischer is home and resting comfortable now on the couch with Mother Ann, I am on top of the world now, but still must be careful and work for the rest of Fischer's life to keep him healthy and safe.

I do have some pictures of what the fishing was shaping up to be, I will get back at it but and there is always a but only when Fischer is GTG = Good To Go.

That is true LF he must have heard my prayers, and as the quote goes if there are no dogs in heaven then I want to go where the dogs are! or something like that.

Thank you LF
