Water Cowboy

Water Cowboy Speedcat Hollydale
As many of you know, I was very busy this week at my new job. I was hired at the Hollydale Lake fishing area and beach as a Water Cowboy .

A dream job? ... well, YES. Everyone wants to be a cowboy. Add water to the mix and you gots some roootin tooten good time wranglin`!
I mostly create a lot of noise and move the fish in closer to shore for the anglers that do not own boats. The kids on the dock love it too, because they throw spit-balls and taunt me with there OHHH SO FUNNY jokes.

Sadly, Friday was my last day. I made 600 dollars in five days, yet spent 700 on sunscreen. Water Cowboy loose money ... Water Cowboy not happy with that. Also, I have no hair left below my chest. Sunfish been nibblin me down like a block of wood in a Parrot cage. My swim trunks are ruined, and I had to wait till dark to get out of the water on my last day. Have you ever been in a bath too long? "Wrinkle and shrivel". Not funny, not pretty! Working winters as a water cowboy would have sucked anyway ...
