The Owl
The story I am about to tell is true, only the names have been change. Just kidding, let me tell you a story. This took place on a Saturday night at a lake that we call Lonzo’s. I guest I was about 36 at the time so it has been a wail. Boy now he had some nice fish in this lake. It was quite often that there were fish up to 30lbs there week after week at lest every other week.
My wife and I got there that day and then some friends came up to fish that night. It was a real nice night a summer night just right. The fish were biting real well and we were catching quite a few carp. I had been lucky to get a 14lber and a 19lber so far. Had won an hour with each one of them and the 19 was on the biggest fish. I have to say I was feeling real good at the time.
This was an all righter and it was about 2 in the morning. It was so quit you could have hear a pin drop on the ground. We were setting there talking about the muskrat in the water. Wasn’t even thinking about what we were doing fishing and all you know. It was just one of them there times. We were just setting around laughing and cutting up doing the things that make a great fishing trip.
I was setting behind my reels. I had a run and was baiting up and getting it back in the stands. I move my seat back, were the wife and everybody else was. I was setting there talking and out of the night something hit me in the chest and fell in my lap. I look down and seen that it was a dove with it chest rip out and it was still alive. All of a sudden there was limes and stuff falling all around me. I look up now I remind you that we were looking and talking about the dove thing that hit me and screed the H out of me already. Well it had winds of 12 feet across, a 4-foot body and feet the size of a football. This thing was coming right for my head. It had to be 4 feet from me. I said S*** real load and hit the ground face first. The next thing that I heard was everybody laughing at me and I mean everybody on the lake. I know that when I look up my eyes had to be the size of silver dollars. I ask if they had seen that and all laugh and said what. I look at them and did not say anything else about it and laugh with them. What night carp fishing.
About Two weeks later my friend, which was with us said one day that was the funniest thing that he had ever seen. I told him that I was glad that I gave him the funniest day of his life. All he said after that was that that was the biggest D OWL that he had ever seen. I just look at him and laugh what else could you have done.
