Dude, you wanna go fishin'?

You packin' heat?!

We were bikin' along the Ross Barnett Reservoir today in M iss iss ipp i
And I was idly thinkin', about 5 hours into "the pedaling", "Hey, those lilly pads look pretty good fer bass fishin'" as we crossed a little inlet from the reservoir, down here near Jackson, MS.

Then I saw him.

Holy cats!

Swimmin' up the 6 foot wide inlet, between the lilly pads, casual as a Sunday stroll after dinner
A 10 foot gator.

Damn.

I guess when you go bass fishin' in Mississippi you might wanna pack a little heat, just in case.
