Star-crossed or snakebit, Pilgrim keeps on fishing - OregonLive.com: "We fished with Denny for steelhead on the Smith and Umpqua rivers on one trip and caught a cow, a stray that somehow became stranded on a riverside ledge after a flood. It hit the water as we approached, and Denny gave chase with the trolling motor as I lassoed it by lying on the bow and slipping the rope around her neck. It was, Denny declared, the largest cow ever caught in his boat -- and, of course, the only one."
