Flash the Wonderdog was a good friend that passed on about 15 years ago. He was a fine fishing partner.
When my son was a baby, I would set up his portable crib streamside and Flashie would babysit while I fished.
Later when Flash was older he would snooze stream side while I made my way up and down the river fishing. I had no trouble finding him when I was done,he was sleeping under the circling vultures
I had to stop taking him with me when his eyesight started to go. One day when some canoes went by, he followed them down stream thinking they were me. He didn't come back for hours.

I never lost a little fish
yes, I'm free to say
It always was the biggest fish
I caught that got away
