Went Fishing, Caught 4 Deer
A once in the
history of mankind kind of thing. The Best Day Of Fishing Ever! Some
fishing stories are a little hard to believe but this guy has pictures to
prove his story... I've heard of salmon jumping into boats, but never
anything quite like this...
Tom Satre told
the Sitka Gazette that he was out with a charter group on his 62-foot
fishing vessel when four juvenile black-tailed deer swam directly toward
his boat.
"Once the deer reached the boat, the four began to circle the
boat, looking directly at us. We could tell right away that the young
bucks were distressed. I opened up my back gate and we helped the
typically skittish and absolutely wild animals onto the boat. In all my
years fishing, I've never seen anything quite like it! Once on board, they
collapsed with exhaustion, shivering."
"This is a picture I took of the rescued bucks on the back of my boat, the Alaska Quest. We headed for Taku Harbour. Once we reached the dock, the first buck that we had pulled from the water hopped onto the dock, looked back as if to say 'thank you' and disappeared into the forest. After a bit of prodding and assistance, two more followed, but the smallest deer needed a little more help.
My daughter, Anna, and son, Tim, helped the last
buck to its feet. We didn't know how long they had been in the icy waters
or if there had been others who did not survive. My daughter later told me
that the experience was something that she would never forget, and I
suspect the deer felt the same way as well!"
I told you! Awesome!
Our Lord works in
mysterious ways...
