Re: bugs won, fisherman zero
ok you guys, this is classified info, but i have freinds in high places. bout thirty years ago in FL, just to the north of the crystl river nucler plant, there was a hunting club ( i'm not saying witch one) and the owner/operater of this place decided that he needed to boost his turkey numbers. he went arround the U.S. looking for the biggest turkeys of the best breeding stock he could find. he got a flock of turkeys from a place in pennsylvania (close to three mile island it's been rumored) and took them back to FL. when he got em back home he let um go just like he should, except for one unusally large hen. now this hen was tired from the long trip and fell asleep in the back of the cage. the man came out just before dark to get things put away from the trip, he saw the hen and woke her up and chased her into the woods. by then the other turkeys were long gone. now this hen was new to area and did not know her way around so she headed to where she thought the other turkeys might have gone. before she could find them it got dark and she got lost in the deep dark woods close to the nuclear plant. she was walking through the woods bumping into things when she heard a noise behind her. scared of coarse she started to run, but the noises just kept getting louder and closer. all at once she was surrounded by a swarm of big FL skitters. well needless to say these were not ordenary skitters, but citrus CO. nuclear plant skitters. they closed in on her and one by one they had their way with her. the next day when she awoke she noticed that she had no feathers down there and was very sore in that area. not being able to stand the shame of this horrible crime she went off on her own in a dark, remote section of the woods to live. in a few days she started to feel the urge to make a nest. soon she had laid a bunch of unusaly large eggs, but like any good mother it did not matter to her how they were conceved, she was going to hatch them anyway. one day about a month later she heard a cracking noise comming from below. she was all excited that she would soon be a mother, she did not know what was to come..... in a split second she got a funny look on her face, her head shot strait up with her neck streached out as far as it would go, all the feathers on her body stood strait out and she started to shake uncontrollibly. all of the eggs had hatched at once. the new hatchlings sensed the heat of her body and smelled her blood. YES... they were half turkey and half skitter. the instant they had cracked their eggs they impaled their fangs of death into their mother hen from below. as soon as she was drained of all her blood they emerged from the nest and began to hunt. few animals exscaped their wolf pack hunting method. it was a few months later, when some hunters did not return from a hunt, that the owner of this place got worried and called in the police. after the loss of three fine oficers they called in the U.S. goverment at the request of a forth heavly wounded officer that made it out alive and told of what he had seen. the goverment sent in their best bioligest. after a few days he came back out of the woods. when he was asked what he had seen he replied " It's to late, there's just to many of them to keep contained." the government officer asked what they should do. the bioligest said "RUN, RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!!!" <br /><br /> and thats it. that is the story of how the FL. turkey skitter was born. now you know why skitters have feathers. to date (as far as i know) the largest one ever shot has been 34 1/4 lbs. if you ask the goverment they will denie these events ever took place, but i have freinds in high places.<br /><br />derwood

<br /><br />P.S. it was told to me that the original bunch of skitters were drunk on insect repellant witch got this whole thing started, so don't bother even putting it on or they might come looking for you personally.
