This is a tale of two lakes. Intertwined lakes, in Barry County, Michigan. Where somehow the water has gone away. Upper and Lower Crooked Lakes, both near and dear to me, are suffering from the lowest water levels I've seen in the 35+ years I've been fishing them.

Not once they're plucked. Hope the sensor doesn't get me for that one.

So if you catch more than one from the same spot on the hook with chicken feathers, are you into a good flock of fish?

I think that would be a gaggle of fish. A gaggle is a flock of fish not in flight.
Original song and lyrics by "MadWags"

What's with the news these days on the TV and the radio. Can't find the truth amongst the lies. Some talking head that claims to live their life in a better way, says I have to compromise. But now there's something on the rise. Truth has opened up my eyes. There's no running from your dirty lies. You can't avoid the truth. I'll no longer close my eyes.

But there is such a thing as flying fish, saw them myself down in the carribean.
When you are in any contest you should work as if there whereto the very last minute a chance to loose it.

hey those are knocking on the door to the GLs  :'(
"dont stop keep fishing"

Sorry Guys,
A gaggle is a term of venery for a flock of geese that isn't in flight;

Fishmael

OH!  So they have to be GOOSE feathers tied on the hook!  I am glad we cleared that one up before I got into a good flock and didn't know what to use.

Durand Dan is sending me to the dictionary with his verbosity. I didn't know what "Venery" was  and now that I know I am not sure I want anything to do with those feathers. This thread is a bit afflacked.  ;D

venery - definition of venery by the Free Online Dictionary ...
ven·er·y 1 (v n -r ). n. pl. ven·er·ies Archaic. 1. Indulgence in or pursuit of sexual activity. 2. The act of sexual intercourse. ...
"Not in the clamor of the crowded streets nor in the shouts and plaudits of the throng, but within oneself lies victory or defeat."

MadWags

LOL! :o

Add the feather and fish hooks and you have a rather shocking visual.

That would explain why they aren't flying.

And I don't think this is the place to be discussing doing that to geese...sheesh... :o

I'm consulting with the forum decency board right now on whether or not this thread needs defenestration...

Help stop invasive spcies. Don't move fish between unconnected bodies of water. Clean, drain and dry your boat before launching on another water body.

Please throw it out the window! (defenestration)

Fishmael

Yeah, it really has gone south...however, since it is almost April, I imagine it will start making its way back north soon.

LOL!  :D Very well said.
