This goose is flying along side the boat close enough to touch, and he's giving us the evil eye. The boys absolutely loved it. I tromped the hotfoot to the floor and thumbed the trim switch. My boat'll run a little shy of 60 with a full load of bodies, tackle, and livewell water. I had her skint completely back, and she was doing everything she had pretty quick.
Canadian geese can fly fast.
My boys are howling like a couple of dogs. Chris, my 10 year old is laying on the floor of the cockpit with his feet kicking, and Josh is laying across the seats with head near my hip trying to get as far away from this PO'd duck as he can. Several boat loads of people fishing Bailey's point must have gotten quite a laugh as we screamed around the corner WOT, hollering, feet flailing in the air, with a ferocious duck in hot pursuit. Heck, I watched Top Gun, so I hooked my foot in the guard on the pedal and yanked it toward me hard as I could. The boat acted like an anchor had been thrown out and the duck shot on ahead.
