I swung the skiff north out of the Gulf and up a tidal river.
I was looking for Speckled Trout. There was just a pile of
rain and a cold snap. So I brought the camera just in
case the fish were elsewhere. As soon as I entered the
mouth of the river, I was greeted by an armada of pelicans.
And a few rare white ones. They are big!
My objective was to fish above and below the narrows.
I passed some real sweet homesteads. A small shrimp boat
passed me on my way. A few boats were coming down the
Narrows and sloshing there wakes against the river banks.
I was scanning the shore line for anything artifactual, but I saw
a puff ball instead. So I cut the engine and drifted back.
The puff ball was a puppy frightened, wet and incased with
black delta mud. A bit of an ordeal to coax the pooch to were
I could grab her. A sweet peanut bar helped. I got her on board
and dunked her. I used bottled water to flush her eyes which she
was pawing at. Rubbed her down with my spare shirt and headed for home.
More tomorrow. Zuma

Good looking Pup and glad she's got a good home. If that's your house I'm coming to visit. ;D

Rob I have no clue as to how the little gal got to where I found her.
Yep BJ she was a sweet heart for the little time I had her.
Eddie, I think it's more like a summer home, so we could sneak in.
