My annual 1 week fishing trip turned into a detecting trip. The 1st. day I noticed a small oil leak from one of my motors and it was causing an oil slick around my boat, well it would be a sin to fowl these clean lakes so I put away the boat, but I had the m.d. along and it got a work out. As always my trip turned out to be an adventure. Sunday- one of my dogs decided that a musky spinner bait would look good hanging from his ear. Well I had nothing onboard to remove the hook from the dogs ear, it went all the way thru. So I had to go home for tools, and on the way both dogs fell out of the boat, the one with the hook in his ear weighs 125 dry, and wet, a lot more. Managed to get dogs back in the boat and you know what dogs do when they are wet, shake off, and now my wife and I smell like wet dogs. Got back to the landing, loaded the boat and dogs to get home to do minor surgery on my dog Fugit. Now my Tahoe smells like a wet dog too. Got back and removed the hook from his ear. Monday- borrowed a boat to detect an island which has been used as a shore lunch spot since the late 1800's, resuts were dissapointing except for a gift from an eagle. I had just given up and looked at my wife and said I've had it the only thing here is nails,bullets and beer bottle caps when a feather floated down from an eagle who had been watching us. Tuesday-went to a remote lake where a cabin was located until the 30's, again, slim pickins, screw this lets go pick blueberrys, went to a wild blueberry patch we had spotted on the way. The patch covers 10 acres on a hillside, when we got to it my wife and dogs spotted a wolf on the far side. On the way back there was another wolf loping across the road about 200 ft. ahead of us. All in all the results were not that good except a rail spike from 1884, a military button, and some wheaties.
