It's slow on here...how about a video?
This was Rocky earlier this evening. Prior to this dummy launcher (thanks Jeff!) I'd never been able to give Rocky a retrieve that came even close to reaching this island. This was his first time ever getting a retrieve out to the island, so I was crossing my fingers that he'd get the job done! I'm estimating it was a 50-60 yard swim to get across. The dummy I'm using is one of the plastic ones, and I use it mainly for water retrieves, so it doesn't have much scent on it at all; I think that's why it took him so long to find it.
