[QUOTE="26Reload, post: 1408918, member: 99519"] Been relating some tales on another thread "Dumb things I've Done"... Since both are great threads I am trying to tie US all together.... A story from when I was guiding....a talent bygone..... A group of guys from Arizona came up for a fishing trip...driftboat trips on inland river....two clients one rower.... So as the lead guide..I helped the other guides get their boats in the river and clients loaded...as I put my boat into the river..a client steps out into the water with tennis shoes on....mind you that this was winter steelhead fishing...and the weather was freezing in mornings....I jumped out of my warm truck to get that guy out of the water before he gets soaked...then I notice the shoes he is wearing are those little swimmers shoes....for wading....I tell him to get the hell out of that water before his feet freeze.... Ray turns towards me..a bigass smile on his face..and said something like "thanks for the warning".....he pulls up his pants legs and he has two artificial legs....Ray is a Vietnam Vet...had both his legs taken off by landmine.......he told the other guys about my worrying about getting his feet frozen..and they laughed about it all morning.......I didn't mind the jokes at all....I just wouldn't let him cast in any good holes.....just kidding......great group of guys... Later that day we were sliding into a really good fishy spot...Ray hooked up on a really nice steelhead...after a lengthy battle that wore Ray to the edge of a nap..he landed a beautiful 16# chrome hen steelhead....the other boats lined up to watch Ray catch that fish and hi fives were shared by all...and I have no idea how many pictures....I got one picture of that day and that hole....there was another viewer watching Ray catch that fish that day.........and it was there from beiggining to end....[ATTACH]91713[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]91714[/ATTACH] That bird.... an American Bald Eagle.... And that gentlemen is the story....that bird was only 30' above our heads...the entire time.....RAY'S HOLE.... [/QUOTE]
