Gift of the airlines

I guess I picked up this chest cold on the way to Raleigh, it hit me hard on the way back on Sunday, but I recovered enough to spend some time in the water yesterday.   I got a bite that hit my mullet so hard it was knocked off the hook....I guess I should have hooked it a little deeper, but it sure was swimming nice.   About 2 minutes later I was locked and loaded with that cast net, waste deep and hoping to catch another bait.  It was getting pretty dark, but just enough light to see the mullets showering and coming right at me.   They were getting chased by that rooster who ended up between my legs trying to get at the mullet using me for cover.   It all happened pretty quick, in mid launch I decided that it was not a good idea to have that rooster in my net so I aborted mid-throw and everything ended up in a knot.   Gotta try that again today......
