Good fishin' mitch
Fisherman's prayer:
God grant that I may live to fish, For another rainy day.
But when my final cast is made, I then most humbly pray.
When nestled in your landing net, As I lay peacefully asleep.
You'll smile at me and judge, That I'm "good enough to keep"!

id say after 16 schoolies the adrenaline was pumping so a big german shepard should have been no problem for your jigger
big dogs i dont mind so much its the sly jack russels that sneek over and bite the back of your legs that bothers me and run off before you can bite them back grrrrrrrr
