Never Hire a Dog As Your Guide

Arkansas guide John Berry comes close to landing the fish of a lifetime, only to have his over-excited "assistant" get a leg caught in the tippet. "When it was almost in, it took a huge tail walking leap. I gasped as I realized just how big it was. It was well over 27 inches long and must have weighed at least 10 pounds. It was a gorgeous, vividly colored male brown and it was not happy. This was more than Ellie could handle, and she launched into the river like a torpedo." In the Baxter Bulletin.

That´s hilarious!!! I tried onces to take my dog to the river... I couldn´t fish at all. I presume that my dog thought that my rod was a steak, every time I tried to cast my dog jump and tried to get my rod.

Regards.
