What a morning, I step off the boat to walk Skipper and get the evil
eye and a long line of screeching from a Bald Eagle. He's on the tip
top of my main mast with a huge speckled trout. He made a mess, now I
have blood from the tip top running down to the top spreadders and bits
of gills and guts spread about the deck.

I see it as a good omen.

On several occasions I've had mullet jump in my boat while it was
unattended in its slip. How bad that got depended on when I next
arrived at the boat and the time of year.

I never saw that as a good omen.
