Danglin makes a big catch

Quote:

"Went to the Kieth Frazier Sturgeon Seminar with Scallen.....Ended a little short with Keith having to go to the hospital....Pretty sure he'll be O.K....Probably would have been worse if Scallen and I weren't there..he collapsed on the podium and Scallen and I got to him before he took a 5' foot header from the stage to the ground.  Chalk one up for " Team NCKA "....He had been sick for a couple of weeks,"

I guess danglin isn't a braggart like the rest of  fishermen  (read that as "me"  LOL).

I'll brag for him.

Both of us were on high alert for Keith as it turned out.  Something just didn't look or feel right to me and I was ready to jump a couple times during the seminar.  Later learned that Don was feeling the same way, though he can attach medical terms to what he was seeing.  Finally, we watched as Keith's words trailed off and he looked down at the podium and started leaning more heavily.  I moved as fast as i could and was closer to Keith actually, but somehow Danglin was up on the stage before me and had both arms around Keith from behind.  As we lowered him to the floor, I started mentally going through my ABC 1st aid list, then remembered that Danglin is a pro Paramedic.  What a relief, I really didn't want to do CPR on stage in front of 150 people.

Man that guy can move fast! 

Though we were no where near the closest people to Keith, and Danglin was one seat farther away from me, he gets the credit for the biggest catch of the day.  NCKA gets the overall kudos for reaction time and the awareness factor.

We're grateful keith is OK, back at the bait shop this morning and as feisty as ever.

Way to go Don, I'm proud to be your pal!

  Thanks Scallen....You were right on top of it too, and You were the one that said  " He's going ",  I was still tring to figure if he was going to come out of it or not.

Would have hated to run up there and grab him, and then he turns around and smacks me!!!!....But as luck was, he was unconscious......Glad to hear he is back @ the shop and doing fine....

And I would partner up with you anytime we need to activate the " NCKA Rescue Squad  "........................  Danglin

Proud to be your pal too.....Good job

If anyone seems to have a knack for being in the right place at the right time... it seems that Danglin is the man.  Everything from winning raffles to catching oddball fish like threshers in the bay... seems like the man has a pretty good gut instinct. 

Good work men... way to keep the old man going.

Nice work guys!
