Badwater Convention


in search of the elusive legal fish at Dunham
Ernie Harwell used to quote the following at the beginning of spring training each year, "For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone; the flowers appear on the earth; the time of the singing of birds is come, and the voice of the turtle is heard in our land." I have no idea who this magical turtle is that is talking but as with baseball, spring means fishing and the members of the Badwater Bass Club got together this weekend to celebrate what looks to be another great fishing season.
I hope my luck on the water, however, is better than it was playing cards and in the raffles at the gathering. It was not to be for me.
A gold star to the Badwater executive board for getting everything in order for the season. The new gear is pretty tough looking. The hats are even big head friendly, which, for a person like yours truly who has a big cranium, it is a welcome sight. 
Fish on!
