More pictures of fish (CPR):
Can’t tell by the phone cam picture, but the tiny one is actually a ‘Warmouth,’ every bit as rambunctious as its larger bro.
That one bass was annoying. Healthy buck, tide was out, and he and a buddy kept circling a stump, and they both kept avoiding bait dangled right in front of them. Sight fishing – if we can see them? They can see us. I finally tricked him, but it was a chore. That’s a lot of work with a light pole, for just few minutes’ fight.

Creek water is still cold, but felt nice for an afternoon swim – Barton Pool was closed.

At least six miles and numerous “hellos” on the trail. I stopped and chatted with one lad, former tenant, we stopped in the middle of the trail, “Yeah, don’t worry Kramer, those shorts? No place to carry a weapon.” He grinned.

I kept having this recurrent idea, all day long. Too long and weird for a horoscope. I’ve been using “Worm-Glo” or “Glo-Worm” dye on a handful of red wigglers. The dye was on the sale rack at a superstore. It’s worm food with a green dye in it – all-natural – environmentally safe &c. So I can just imagine the fish, mostly perch these days, but some bass, too (see picture above): “Dude, it’s a rush, no, those green worms? Bite it. Got to bite it hard. You get pulled up into the sky, see? Then there’s a bright, white light, right? And then suddenly, back here. No, you gotta try it! It’s a rush!”

I made one (or two) minor adjustments to the scopes’ template. Wasn’t anything big, and I thought I’d mention it here. Except that it’s the sniffer for older browsers, and I realized that older browsers can’t even read the weblog, so, like, what’s the point? When I checked the stats last night, for March, looks like 500 hits from older browsers. Out of almost 300,000 hits? Should I even bother? (Well, yes, I will, as it’s already set up and I don’t have to meddle with a thing.)

Sagittarius. Lots of them. All over the place. Even another 11/28, “Good looking in an odd way, intelligent, odd sense of humor…”
(A little positive PR never hurts.)
