Caught a big CAT Fish at 140'

That's our bubbles below the crane cable working our butts off dragging that cable.

Interesting ... I can't see any pictures, just a little box with a red X in it.

Anyone else having that problem?

Wow - looks like one hell of a fight with those Red X's! (right click-- show picture didn't work for me). What's the limit for Red X's?! #-o

That's a big salmon - they're great fun to catch and even more fun to consume! Mmmm... salmon.

Yes, and right clicking didn't solve the issue...

How'd it get there?

That's up for debate because it was "borrowed" by the city from the contractor. a gentlemans agreement of sort.

City employee was working on the launchramp and says the brakes went out. He bailed and swam for it and the loader just rolled out until it stopped in 140'.

Personally, I would have dropped the bucket and dug in but he didn't. City initially wasn't going to pay but I think they finally settled since they accepted my bill for the diving.

It got real exciting when those straps broke and it went crashing back in.
