When you've got 50k-plus of these little buggers to perform a bit of minor surgery (officially an adiposectomy)



You'll need some serious WMD's to get the job done.



Of course you need some eager volunteers to supply the labor... certainly no shortage today.













The work was tedious and seemingly unending as more and more of the wiggly little buggers were served up for the task







Just let 'em swim in an anaesthetic bath and they calm right down





Then comes the dirty deed...





Repeat 50,000 times and you rack up a pretty good pile of these...



Time for a break....




Lunch provided by Dave of the Humptulips Store. Burgers, hot dogs, chili, chips, soda and all the fixin's. MMM MMM, Good! And an unexpected warm sunbreak under which to enjoy it!





Then it's back to work....











Job well done, folks!



And a small reward for interested bobber/bait anglers....





Thanks to board members On the Swing, Salmo G, Mrs Salmo G, RodHog, fish4brains, FleaFlkr02, Doctor Rick, Mrs. Doctor Rick...

And Dave, Lance, Mary, Ron, Arlis and Co, and at least 4 others whose names I have absent-mindedly omitted.
