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 on 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 Harbor
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.
This is me carrying the little guy.
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. "Kindness is the language
the blind can see and the deaf can hear." Mark Twain
