I think fishing and the Fourth of July just go together so we thought we would check out a new fishing place in Perry, GA. The only thing biting were the red ants which Geronimo is very allergic too. I have shots to give him for when he is bitten but I am terrified the shot might not work so we did not stay very long.

In the Daily Self Portraits photo essay.

    Too bad about the ants! The fish don't bite around here until about Oct. Then the fishing is great until mid April or so. It is so hot to go out anyway.

    Ouch! red ant bites are painful!...We have gnats in our part of the country that leave welts. It looks like you had a beautiful day to go fishing and too bad the ants had to spoil the fun...Great SP.

    Red ants...the worst, you'll be standing there, quietly and secretly they position themselves and all at once attack! Vicious little things. To bad about the fishing, nice shot. dp

    Looks like fun. Most of my fishing has been salt water from a boat or bridge. (Geronimo is lucky to have such a caring owner.)

    Wonderful SP Regenia, sorry you could not relax for long because of those nasty red ants biting Geronimo. We have awful fire ants here in Florida who attack both us humans and our pets and their bites are really bad.

    You look like you are having a relaxing day! Doug and I love to fish too. I'm so sorry to hear that Geronimo is allergic to fire ants. We have a lot of those in Texas too.
