now as editor, managing that is, i have to, this time of year, realize thatdeaddrift east publishing offices are off the grid until ice consumes the
waters around the publishers valley. most of the staff wanders the halls
with no marching orders, no boss to answer to or a boss to locate.
preholidays doldrums develop into ennui and morph into office malaise.
without the captain at the helm, the ship just drifts....
we have, here in the dd west offices intercepted some info originating
on some type of dell laptop located in a lund boat in a to be nameless reservoir.
our tech staff is working on a gps location device we planted on his boat, but the
signal is being jammed by interference of the trolling motor and depth finder.
nothin to be done. happens in cyclical fashion. just wait for the weather to
change and he parks the boat.
here is garbled info we gleaned from his last message to the office receptionist:
"i have been trying to refine my hunt for late season smallmouth this year.
i fish a couple of local reservoirs that have a good population of
smallies and are real sleepers for trophy class fish over 5 pounds.
the place i caught the musky today is a rocky highland reservoir that
just screams smallmouth. big boulders, chunk rock and shale and laydown
trees. 20 feet of water a boat length from shore and 80 ft of water in
the main lake.
today i saw a bald eagle that was sitting on a deer carcass floating in
the middle of the lake."
