Five energized Sanford boys gave the weed weasel a toss into Number Two Pond. The weasel single-handedly (forkedly?) changed the boys' data collection experience.
They were immediately engaged by the active sampling, the hidden promise of unknown depths, and the challenge of throwing something as far as you can and making a splash.
They schemed together about technique:
"If you throw it like this, I bet..."
"We need to reel it in wicked slow so we can get the most weeds..."
There was healthy competition:
"Oh I can throw it farther than that..."
