Walleye Express Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 With a little over a week left until Christmas. Thought it about time I posted my Fishing Christmas Card/Poem again to you all. Made a few subtle changes to it from last year. Enjoy. “Twas the night before Christmas and all across Saginaw Bay†“The shantys were lit up with ice fishermen wanting to stay†“I had just sat out a Tip-Up that I positioned within view†“But concentrated more on my jigging as Tip-Up's take few†“My Do-Jiggers flutter had just settled and awaited it's fate†“As a thick band of red appeared next to it on the OL’FL8†“My pulse soon quickened, and my rod hand started to shake†“I sat almost motionless, while awaiting the take†“With the first twitch of the rod tip, and a snap of the wrist†“I drove home the sharp trebles, in the jaw of the fish†“His struggle was valiant, with violent bends in the pole†“But with slow steady pressure, I worked him up into the hole†“Her girth was impressive, Her length 30 inches or so†“My buddy looked puzzled, when I said...... "I think I’m letting her go†“Some things need explaining, and others fall into place†“I had to say something, from the look on his face†“Think of this buddy, before we call it a night†“Tomorrows Gods birthday, and He's blessed everything with life†“I’ve caught plenty of walleyes, and taken home my share†“I’m giving this one back to him, it would only be fair†“So down into the hole, and under the ice†“Now swim away, swim away, and give someone else a good fight†Capt: Dan.
