PT nymphs ....on the hoof
 
Pheasant season is open here and the neighbors ( and "friends from the city"
.... it's amazing how many 'friends' remember ya one time a year at pheasant
season ) are out marching around the local fields, their once a year guns at
the ready.

There is a big rooster in my backyard, slinking around the shop and keeping
a low profile. He's lucky that I have a good supply of PT nymph material
and I don't want to eat him badly enough to pluck and clean him. G.

I'll have to wait here in the house a while before I go out to do morning
chores, I don't want to chase him back into harms way.

Jenny cost me a great hunting spot, 40 years ago. As I stopped to thank
the farm owner for permission to hunt and show him my birds, a great
squarking uproar started behind me. I turned to see Jenny just as she
caught one of the farmers "pet" peacocks by the tail!

I yelled "Here" just as the bird nearly lifted that little Golden off the
ground as it flew off to land on the roof of a barn. My wonderful little
bitch came, as called, but had a mouth absolutely stuffed full of fresh
Prince nymph materials.G The farmer's wife was outraged and we were
never invited back to hunt the place again :-(

You're a Golden man .... I wrote this many years ago and had it on a
retriever specialty web site I maintained until a few years ago .....
she was an exceptional bitch, far more so than I understood then ....
Hundreds of retrievers later, including a few Field Champions and many
Master Hunter titles, I'd give anything to have another one like her, now
..... any dog men around here might enjoy my story about her.
