Yesterday and today were really great days!! On monday we went fishing. we were gone about 5 hrs. This time I simply went out into spokane river and floated downstream while the current slowed into the lake. I haven,t had a bite or even a follow.. But, rocky is so busy with is own itenerary sp that he creates all kinds of racket and going back and forth side to side front to back really tires me out so i normally go out for only 2 hrs. So by floating downstream i have time to adjust the boat to float over all the gravel beds, change lures etc. and i,m able to sample warm water shallow areas looking for crappies.
Rocky has a great time, normally he luvs to sit on the very front of the boat--all 4 feet in an area the size of a napkin..it,s dangerous but rocky luvs it.. when the water gets warm. i,ll suddenly shut off the power and he goes flying. When going upstream the boat can suddenly jerk left or rt sending him flying.i have to shut the motor off (5hp) and steer the motor away from him..so far so good.. To be honest, up there he balances the boat perfectly and we get the most speed possible..onto a plane? plain? He looks like one of the flying Wolendas and everyone laughs and waves to see him perfecly balanced on about 8 square inches..He must look like a giant hood ornament and i,m driving a Bently. He luvs to swim to shore and explore his world of smell. If i get to far away he jumps into the river and swims out to the boat were i haul him aboard.. I use a harness and not a collar.. so he can put his front paws on the side of the boat. And i can safely pull him up to the point where he can get his rear feet up and come aboard.. Then of course the ritual bath (call me coach). So really, it,s about having fun ,catch some rays and fish hopefully. On the weekends we stay home and putter around..The problems we had were on a saturday..I have less of a problem during the week, when people are working..I like my privacy..
