Hahahaa awesome trip..great river even if I only got a fet small redbands.. nextweekend??? Olallie/horseshoe!
It's a good thing too.I read an article a few weeks ago that said if you catch one while fly fishing reel it in so it can't touch anything but the rod tip, then let it grab hold of a tree trunk or something similar then cut the tippet about ten inches from the bat. Do not try to take the fly out of the bat like I did. My bad! The author said the rabies virus can be on anything the bat touched so wash the rod tip and replace the tippet and leader if you even think it touched them. It also said that ultraviolet light kills the virus so put any gloves (like mine) or other objects in the sun to kills the virus. There is no cure for rabies if you wait too long, it is always fatal! If you get bit or scratched by a bat kill it and retain it for testing and go straight to ER!:shock:
Be Safe, quit fishing when the bats come out....
GD
ARE YOU SERIOUS????? It was my rod that caught it and the fly that was supposedly pulled out of the bat is in my dry fly box as I type.....What are the signs of rabies cause my eyes look really red and I have foamy stuff running down my chin....geez....thats disgusting...

Might just be that you got up too early the day after a strenuous fishing trip and didn't quite wipe all the toothpaste off your face.:think::lol:
I have been biting and freaking out pissed off and raged ever since Sunday!
Did I touch the bat??? NO "I didn't touch the ****ing bat!"
