The Bride Wore Crimson And Other Stories (1993)
“I try it from time to time, but I’ve never been able to set my mind to really learn the wily ways of the creatures of the deep and how to catch them. Still, there’s an element of luck in the catching of fish, and when one of them has a $65,000 prize tag attached to it… why not give it a shot? Somebody hits the multimillion-dollar jackpot on the Las Vegas slot machine. Somebody wins the Publishers Clearing House Sweepstakes. Somebody who doesn’t know what he’s doing could get lucky in the Lake T...exoma Crappiethon.
HE HAD A DREAM, RAY ZIPPER SAID. “USE A JIG AND PUT A MINNOW on it,” the dream told him, “and the fish will come.”
“A lot of times I go to sleep with a problem on my mind, and I’ll wake up with the answer,” Ray said. “I didn’t know I had fish on my mind that night, but I guess I did.”
He wasn’t the only one. All along the shore, from Marietta to Denison, from Tishomingo to Pottsboro, fish were on many minds, for the two-month-long 1990 Lake Texoma Crappiethon was under way.MoreLess
