[#0000FF]About those green sunfish. Most folks who have "experienced" them can attest to their aggressive defense of their nesting territories.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]Your near "nipplectomy" is not surprising...although I'm sure it was a surprise to you at the time. Reminded me of a second hand tale from a fishing buddy who was attacked by greenies while bathing (nude) in a secluded cove on Lake Powell. I will leave it to your imagination as to what indignities might have been inflicted on exposed nether parts.[/#0000FF]

[#0000FF]I suspect that your bleeding injury may have been caused by one of the rare "saber-toothed" sunfish. It is believed that radiation leaching downstream from the Moab area has created some picscatorial anomalies among Powell's fishkind. Or...someone may have released an aquarium piranha into Powell.[/#0000FF]
