Helicopter on Oil Creek

Was at the Miller Farm yesterday for some remedial casting practice...
 
Im standing about in the middle of the stream and hear a chopper coming in...
Wow, it's getting close, Now it's right over my head 100 feet up, he circles a little up stream and opens up a tank of a Tan or orange colored liquid that he dumped into the creek.
 
Dumped it right between me and a couple other fellas up stream....
 
Any clue what he was dumping ???
 
 
Should I be concerned about growing a third arm or my favorite rod shrinking ????

    Black flies.
    they use some type of bacterium which is supposedly safe for all the other aquatic life and non harmful to people.
    that creek usually gets sprayed a couple few times a year.  
    It still freaks me out and I'll get out of the creek for awhile cause I don't want that chit on my waders.

    I always hide from the choppers...I think Dafunk is spying on me.

    I don't always snag fish, but when I do...
    I choose Little Cleos

    I'm the best looking smartest snagging poacher alive...

    I thought the same thing but I have never seen them "dump" stuff like bings says. I have only ever seen spraying.

    I wish they'd dump, spray, douse, shoot or do whatever they want up here in Warren Co. The blackflies are already out and biting. Its gonna be miserable by July.

    wow bings that sounds like something out of a sci fi movie.
    How was your casting with the chopper overhead? ;)
