Haha, ticks and chiggers ARE the Devils spawn! Copperheads and Water Moccasins I also don't like unless it's from about 50 ft away!

One time when I was stationed in Idaho we went fishing at C.J. Strike. I caught 88 stripped perch. Filleted out every one of the little devils. But they were good eating though. And I can't tell you how many trout I caught (Not at CJ though). Barbless hook. It was fun and when you were able to actually land one, a 12-15 inch trout cooked up real nice.
