The Fishing Gods Are Satisfied....I think

While I was waiting for popper bodies to dry, I decided to hit the river for a quick trip.  I really wanted to go back and see if I could find my camera, not that I think it would work after being in the water for 24 hours.  Well I went back to the hole where I lost the camera.  This is the place we, who fish it, call it the deep pool or deep hole.  I caught one fish on my first cast and promptly got worried.  We all know, you get jinxed if you catch a fish on the first cast.  I believe now though that the fishing gods have been satisfied.  I mean they should be right????  I did offer them up my camera and a work camera at that.  I landed 25 long ears, 10 smallies, 8 red eyed rocks, 1 fall fish and 1 crappie.  Not sure how the crappie snuck in there.  I have never caught them in this location on the river before.  I will say that it was a pleasant surprise.  I checked for the camera but alas no luck.  Not that I expected to really find it.  I managed to take a couple of photos with my cell phone camera.  I was worried about dropping it so I didn't take a lot of photos.  Here they are:

  1. Glad to hear the gods are satisfied. It sounds like they have expensive taste in sacrificial offerings. Sorry to hear about your camera.

  2. I've been trying to appease the wind-gods all spring...they are still angry. Maybe I should try the camera thing. ;)
