knightfisher Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 Buddy wanted to know where to catch carp on Lake Gibson in niagara, so I took him to a spot to give it a go.Tried a fews days at one spot for a few hours and noticed this duck with a jig in it's mouth. We befriended it withcorn and tried to catch it. No luck the first day. Second day with the net set up and corn as baitJoe caught it. I opened the bill and noticed the jig was in it's tongue. I got my snips and cut off the barbed end of the hook and then back out the jig. Released the duck who stuck around a while and went on it way.We were rewarded with a few carp.

glenner Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 Reading this made my morning, way to go the extra distance to help an animal in distress.
AKRISONER Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 And fishermen get a bad name for not caring about nature! This proves that maybe we are more in tune with nature afterall.
Brettiop Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 Way to go helping the duck out! sure he appreciated it! Nice looking carp too!
aplumma Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 Good for you all, the duck was very fortunate to have found such nice friends as you and your buddy. Art
npt1 Posted September 17, 2014 Report Posted September 17, 2014 Great work there buddy, At least the bird will pay for this help because he still has the ' bill" . Sorry, could not resist the pun. lol npt1.
glenner Posted September 18, 2014 Report Posted September 18, 2014 Great work there buddy, At least the bird will pay for this help because he still has the ' bill" . Sorry, could not resist the pun. lol npt1. That pun "quacked" me up (there, that;s even worse!)
knightfisher Posted September 19, 2014 Author Report Posted September 19, 2014 Thanks guys. We were lucky to catch the duck, many attempts. I believe the members here would do the same if the situation arose. npt and glenner...I could cry fowl...
Reel Man Posted September 19, 2014 Report Posted September 19, 2014 Way to go Knightfisher! Glad to see there are compassionate fishermen out there still. I'd definitely like to believe that most of us would at least attempt to help an animal in distress like that but actions speak louder than words...
