Chapter 46

From Rrrosco

Another tall tale from Australia

I went fishing for barra one morning, but after a short time I ran out of prawns. Then I saw a redbelly black snake with a frog in his mouth. Frogs are good barramundi bait.

Knowing the snake couldn’t bite me with the frog in his mouth I grabbed him right behind the head, took the frog, and put it in my bait bucket.

Now the problem was how to release the snake without getting bitten. So, I grabbed my bottle of Bundy Rum and poured a little in its mouth. Its eyes rolled back; he went limp.

I released him into the creek without incident and carried on fishing using the frog.

A little later, I felt a nudge on my foot. It was that bloody snake, with two more frogs.
