Almost Skunked
Being skunked equals catching nothing while your partner
catches something. It’s just that simple. Webster defines skunked as being
overwhelmingly defeated in a game or contest. It goes further and states that when one is
skunked he is kept from scoring any points. Well, today I was almost skunked.
Today’s Guest
My guest today was Roger “I’m back on the
board” Bentley. We met at the Dog River dock around 7:30 am. By 8:20 Roger had caught
two of his three fish of the morning. His best today went 3 Lbs, 3 ozs which was enough to
put him in 5th place. It was also enough to bump off Ken “I shall return”
Higginbotham and his sidekick, Bryan.
Roger had to leave at noon to go to work so I fished on until
about 3:30. I finally caught four and had a few runs that I was unable to catch. Roger may
have won the morning round but I was the best fisherman aboard the ALVA D this afternoon!
I am attaching pictures of Roger's best and one of mine from
this afternoon.( so Roger will know I'm not stretching the truth). I also have a picture
of Roger in action. Look at that rod bend! When a Golden Ghost bends your rod, it stays
bent!
