OAF FISHING CONTIBUTOR

Reminds me of the fist time I was bass fishing at Lake Huites in Mexico. It was early morning (first day). We spotted a dark colored object in the water down lake from where we were fishing. Our Mexican guide (boat driver) started hollering and between my understanding of Spanish and a few hand gestures .... I figured out out he wanted me drive the boat in the direction of the object. We get close to the object and it turns out to be a deer swimming across the lake. The guide (Phillipe) fashioned a lasso out of the anchor rope on the ride over to it and when we got close .... he stood on the front deck and then roped the deer (first try). He then proceeded to wrap the rope around a cleat on the boat .... then put the motor in gear and headed to the bank. By the time we got to the bank .... the deer had expired. This guide was a hero in the local community ..... he had a meal that would feed his family for quite awhile. My buddy was completely/totally in shock (almost catatonic) during the whole event. Don't know if it was deer season or if there is such a thing down there. Unbelievable.

Nice pic. PC :P

Cheers. PC
