And even when he's working on people's eyeballs, he's also thinking about his noon break on that little pond full of bluegills. I really don't understand how he can keep his enthusiasm up, for he averages 25 fish each day on that little pond. ;-)  Maybe it's because he puts them back and they, knowing this, are glad to let him catch them just so they can say hello.  I've heard that Rick knows all the larger fish by name and upon walking up to the bank, hollers out - Hey ya'll!   I'm here!  Who wants to be caught first?  Hi Gloria!  Hi Thomas. Where's your babies." JIMMY  D  :-P -- JIMMY D. MOORE Outdoor Humor Writer.
