I reckon a dingo tracker would've got him.

These are the guys that put out that great story about the drunks
cating the eel. Some of the best local newspaper writing I've ever
seen.

I just gotta ask - how in the hell did a guy from Australia wind up hearing
about a small-town Texas newspaper...? I mean, I know it's a, um...well, world
wide web and all, but still...

Someone posted a link to the original eel story and Rob asked for the
link about 6 weeks ago. Been reading them since that first story.

Been reading this newsgroup for about 13 years ever since I had the internet
put on. Heard about the mag as Frank said, the article about the Killer Eel
which was posted here a while back and now read it once a month online with
a wicked grin each time - it's a diamond in the ruff, a bit like an Elk Hair
caddis; not much to look at, but a dynamite fly.

Now onto your second question... I believe Frank is a Ninja!
His tales of fumbling on boats, tripping on anchor ropes, nuclear powered
magnifiers, are a ruse. I suspect "Snowed In" madness got to him and he went
to the pound, picked out a Ninjarish looking dog, trained him in the ways of
the Ninja (and fly-fishing - of course), then placed the dog in San Leon,
Texas - near the Mayor's house.

Tight Lines.

Rob.

Oh me, oh my. I've lost my puppy (had to "loose" him as he was eating
me out of house and home). Got some of this great stuff from Wolfie
http://www.wisn.com/health/16166778/detail.html to give him that
really spooky look. Kinda got used to having him around the house.
Stubbed my toes in the dark a bunch of times since since I sent... uh,
lost him.
