A New Kind Of Fishing
Today I broadened my horizons, and my eyes were opened to an entirely unfamiliar style of ‘fishing.’ The target of this adventure was not a floppy fish at all, but rather the hard shelled Quohog, the one member of the seafood family that I most dread eating. However, more distasteful than its flavor, is the method at which we came about possessing them.
The method was simple, wade into the muddy waters near the oceans edge, and tread water so that your feet just barely settle below the mud. After you have properly established your position, and have become familiar with the smell of the manure-like mud, slowly squish your feet around just below the mud and feel around for any hard objects. When you have stumbled across target, usually marked by a stubbing of a toe, or a cut along the bottom of the foot, use your toes to bring the object in question to the surface to reveal if you did, in fact, find a Quohog.
After a number of hours, and the recovery of many glass bottles, shoes, and golf balls, did manage to fill our two pecks of Quohogs, and had a wonderful evening of scrubbing and boiling those disdained creatures.
