Puzzle Description:

A fisherman out in his boat reeling in an old boot.

I "caught" on to the boot just as I was doing the fishing line. Good trick to use a "dotted" stretch; it set the boot apart nicely. Altogether another fun puzzle of a good size for a quick respite! Thanks.

I especially like the dotted fishing line!

Very nice. A bit tricky to solve logically, but no guessing is required.

Nice. That's something I'd like to be doing...except with a fish on the end instead. lol

Cute! I thought it was a lumpy fish... maybe in a toxic lake? But now I see the boot clearly and feel silly! Great puzzle!

I also like the fishing line. :)

Ditto. I like the boot and the fishing line, although I found it a challenge at the end. Just one square at a time requires patience.

Great image and the puzzle was just hard enough to stay interested. Cute theme.
