My father (Robert Larson) and neighbor/friend Frank Phlaum bagged these two geese in the north end of Peterson Bay I believe in the fall of 1971.
I remember this day, like it was just yesterday, even though I was only about 10 years old. . .These two men were just like boys when they came back in to the cabin. Laughing and ribbing each other on their days event. . .Man, how I was envious!
I couldn't wait to start hunting with them. . .They got a snow and a blue goose on a perfect blue bird day! Oh, yea. . .they also had 14 ducks too! I remember most of them being mallards and a few gadwalls.
I think my Dad had those cut off jeans for like 25 years! He probably had those on under his work coveralls when he and Frank were out hunting. . .HA!
