Living in one of the world’s great breadbaskets means an errant cast may bring great reward. Like Jed Clampett’s errant squirrel shot yielding “Texas Tea,” – I draped a backcast into the best part of a Hershey bar.

Last weekend was spent plying the clean water, and chores were dormant, so I didn’t have the opportunity for straying too far afield. The Little Stinking provided little action Sunday morning but did yield a bonanza of free food.

Selenium Almonds are one of the fringe benefits of tromping the path less traveled, I figure the root system filters anything meaner than I am – leaving just the tame byproducts like Estrogen and crankcase oil for the fruit.

I’ve got 10 trees within a single backcast, all wild and this year’s crop is a humdinger. Plunking a 10lb sack of these on the kitchen table goes a lot farther than a dead fish, so I’ll lump this into the successful outing category.

More confirmation that Brownliners are an invasive species, we’re locusts Babe .. adapt, evolve, and pillage.
