Guilty Dogs and The case of the missing Sour Trout

Rene Tanner  wrote a funny article about her dog Opie Here's an excerpt.
For the past few days, I have been fishing in my backyard. No, I do not have a pond. I have a dog -- a happy, tail-wagging, tongue-flicking Lab -- who just so happened to eat a half-pound bag of Sour Trout, plastic bag and all.

When we first realized the bag of candy was missing, Opie quickly became suspect number one.

Great column Renee.

Did you know ?

Did you know after World War II, steel whip antennas from surplus army tanks enjoyed a brief burst of popularity as fishing poles. In fact, work was done to make fiberglass antennas for tanks as they didn't conduct electricity when passing under power lines like steel antennas did. Many fishing rods built immediately after WWII were constructed from salvaged Army tank and truck antennas.


In 1954 – Shakespeare manufactured the first fiberglass radio antennas, golf club shafts, pool cues, archery equipment, and numerous industrial materials.

Federal Bureau of Reclamation is proposing to again kill thousands of trout

An artificial flood in the Grand Canyon aimed at building sandbars to protect the endangered humpback chub has led instead to an eight-fold increase in the nonnative fish that is eating the chub -- the rainbow trout.

So now, the federal Bureau of Reclamation is proposing to again kill thousands of trout using electroshock, perhaps annually for a span of a decade, and at a cost of millions of dollars to taxpayers.
