A little safety topic first off. This fellow is experienced and a regular on
Texas Kayak Fisherman forum. http://www.texaskayakfisherman.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=181697
This is the video of him having a problem in not really
that bad a surf situation. It also shows why this OFM will not be seen paddling
in the surf with gear in a yak. The OFM has taken enough unplanned exits from
boats to know his limitations.Meanwhile the morning began early for some strange reason and the Fishing Team hit the pier early. The jellyfish were so thick that the spoon had trouble penetrating the mass of bodies. A few ladyfish were present again but only one was hooked. They are actually too small to hook reliably.
While we are talking fish catching here are pictures of
two birds from late yesterday. A fellow
at the end of the pier was catching small fish and feeding the birds. The seagull just pecked around on its fish.
This white bird however worked on its fish for several
minutes until it got the fish oriented just right. Then it was swallow time, but the bird still
had to work on it to get the fish swallowed. It was actually funny to watch.
Later this afternoon the OFM headed over to the
campground office area to get put to work.
After the “training” the needed books were gathered and now he is on the
job for the next ten days. Mr. Manager to you fellow!
With a little luck the only things the OFM will get to
screw up is feeding the dog and filling the yard fountain. At the moment we
have four spots open for next week. This is not a popular “weekender”
campground because we do not have swimming pools and things like that.
Naturally the OFM gets wild ideas once in a while. Here is
his latest silly wild idea. If he ever gets any sense it will surprise the
whole world.
Now how in the world is that going to help in trying to
have tooooo much fun? TheOFM.
Mr. Manager, Sir, will you still have time to go fishing or will you be stuck at the park 24/7?
ReplyDeleteSince I am the boss now, I get to set my own hours he he he.
DeleteGive me a cane pole anything. That Yakking business don't look like fun at all.
ReplyDeleteCane poles work in some locations very well.
DeleteGood thing you don't yak much anymore, eh? Well, Barney..er...Mr.Manager, Sir...I know it's hard to stay on a bike for me anymore, but now the bike's on you...looks like it might stay there!
ReplyDeleteI hope it does.
DeleteYou know if that tat brought you joy to have it put there then I say you succeeded in your quest of having too much fun.
ReplyDeleteI would like to know where your header photo is taken?
ReplyDeleteNita all my header pics have the location under the pic. This one is the Breakwater Picnic Area, Rockport, Texas. The green pin is where I stood to take the picture. https://maps.google.com/maps?ll=28.025309,-97.046555&spn=0.002434,0.004318&t=h&z=18
DeleteSince the green pin did not work let us try this description. In the map referenced above, the picture was taken where the pier/jetty meets Vet Memorial Drive looking south.
