(OLM WireServices – 01/18/2010)
Over the weekend Chris G. Willikers went fishing again and true to his word brought along ol’ Tripod on his quest to hook the Catch of the Month. However, bringing along Dave “Tripod” Woods, may have backfired in a big way.
Tripod ( who says they started calling him Tripod back in high school) commenced to catch, not a whitefish, but a splendid rainbow trout. The trout was large and worthy of a photo. As fate would have it, Willikers was the the only one with a camera, so he snapped a photo of Tripod holding his trout. Not only did he take the photo, but he took it at what some judge to be the perfect distance for a picture of a man holding his trout.
In addition, Tripod submitted the photo to LAFF (Lagerville Anglers Fly Fishing Club) and took the honors for the January Catch of the Month. Willikers was much chagrined from this turn of events and vowed to keep fishing until he caught a Catch of the Month.
“There’s ‘leven more months left,” stated Willikers, fist clenched, "the sad part about all this is that I let Tripod hold m' rod jus' fer a second an' wouldn't ya know it, he hooked th' Catch of the Month!"

Dave "Tripod" Woods gleeful over catch of the month.
General comment - I'm thrilled to see that Lagerville is back in action.
