River Muskie and a River Rescue
 

Took off work Thursday and headed down to the river for a Muskie hunt. Got on the water mid morning and connected with a nice fish shortly after. Got her released back in the water and I hear someone yelling. I yell back and I see a guy standing on the bank hollering about some kids overturned in a canoe upriver and one is possibly injured. I scoop him up and shoot up river to find a canoe group and a couple had gotten into a fallen tree and overturned. One girl hurt her knee pretty bad and the others were freezing cold. We got them in the boat, back to the ramp and warmed up in a truck before heading to get her leg look at. I got back out and saw a guy in a kayak having some electrical issues with his trolling motor. I’ve been there before, so I offer to tow him back to the ramp and told him to hop in and we did some walleye fishing. Caught one short and missed a few others. Shared some fishing stories and tips. Crazy day on the river!! The Delaware never disappoints!https://i.postimg.cc/Pq6TRCR3/68-B8-...-EF4-C3315.jpg

Great story, nice picking up the yak guy and taking him fishing after he had boat issues. That's quality story. Good karma goes a long way.

Amazing story fortunately with a great ending. When you were out there did you happen to come across Fast Eddie stuck on a rock:D? You would have had the grand slam that day!

In all seriousness, heroic effort and goes to show how dangerous even a leisurely trip on big water can be and two how important it is to help people in trouble. You sir are a good man and more than ever we need more people in this world with big hearts!

Helluva a story to put it mildly! You made some lifelong friends that day and the powers to be were shining down on the people you saved. Wouldn't have taken much for a completely different outcome. Again great report, awesome job and beautiful musky by the way to top it all off!

Delaware river can ruin your day in an instant for sure! I lost my boat for a few months last year due to a rock hit. I was happy I could help but I hope my next trip is a little less eventful! Lol
