I am happy to announce that at 10:45 Sunday night Osama Bin Raccoon was killed by a Lake Martin Sniper. OBR has been terrorizing my fish feeder for about 5 weeks. Said feeder sits at the end of my dock over a green monster fish light. I have tried fence wire and a hav-a-heart trap but to no avail. He just shakes the feeder, he has shaken about 50 lbs. of feed out in five weeks. The final straw came Saturday when I was getting my newly cleaned and uncovered pontoon boat off the lift. I discovered that Osama had defecated and urinated on the table. And then while blowing off the roof of my house, found the same type evidence where he was probably watching me try to raccoon-proof my feeder. I declared a jihad at that moment. Sunday night, I went out on the porch at 10:45 and noticed about 30 large fish in a feeding frenzy beneath my feeder. Then I saw him, Osama Bin Raccoon himself, hanging over the side of my feeder. I reached for my Savage .17HMR with scope and BANG! That sucker is loud at 10:45 at night on the water. But that may explain what woke some of you up. A dignified burial at sea was performed about 1/2 second after the said BANG. The whole operation was witnessed by about 30 large fish and there will be no pictures. God Bless America and Lake Martin.
