Worst fishing partner ever

Captain Woody Woods · 11-19-2009, 08:59 PM

Decided to do some fishing today down at the farm. Went 5 for 5 on largemouths; all fish caught on little black rapala. Bass ran a little on the small side today, but were otherwise pretty aggressive in light of the cold temps. Now, I could have probably caught twice that many if Belle didn't INSIST on flying off the shore into the water and swimming from one side of the pond to another. That dog is the worst fishing partner I have ever had by far. Fun day though, enjoy the pictures.

How many did she catch?

Captain Woody Woods · 11-19-2009, 09:14 PM

haha when the feeder went off she went flying into the middle of the pond and swam in circles trying to snag her one. she would definitely pounce on every fish as soon as they would start jumping. i would release them in just a few inches of water (part of our pond is a shallow flat. clear as the keys too so it's fun to sight cast/fly fish on that part) so she could chase them back into the deep water.

Great looking dog Woody. I had to put my Belle (black lab) down in March. One of the toughest things for a grown man to do ... I still miss her butit did make me smile seeing your Belle enjoying the pond. Thanks for sharing.

Joe-not sure if you saw offtopic a week ago but I had to put down my oldest golden (I have 3) last Monday. I feel your pain man. I cried like a baby and didn't come out of my room for 3 days. Not a whole lot I am proud of but I will brag on my labrador all day long. She turned out great (got her from a forum member). I will breed her in a year.....thank you for the compliments. I'll pass them on to Belle as soon as she wakes up. She is DONE for the night after chasing the four wheeler all day and swimming!

Ahhh, but how can you say no to that face! I use to try and take my dog wade fishing with me in hopes that he would stay on shore but that dang dog would practically drown trying to wade out with me... a 120 lb rottweiler doesn't make a good wading partner

Labs just don't know how to act when they get around water!
