I was looking for a picture tonight and ran across a few
This is my grandfather and an uncle

My dad and my grandfather on a lake somewhere in TN

My dad in Ohio round the early 70's I think

Dad in TN round 70'S

This is me in my early catfish days

Miss these days here of going to deer camp with dad and putting up deerstands

How old? I might have a few from way back, but that old Brownie camera wasn`t used much.

70's and back Nic, I just got in the mood last night. Dad ain't been able to hunt with me in 6+yrs and never hunted with gramps. He died and outdoorsmans death. He was found at the base of an old oak tree with squirrels on his side and shotgun in his lap. He passed doing what he loved.

Quiet dignity. I would hope that I go in that same manner.

J Seph,

The picture of your dad below bears a strong resemblance to Mike Rowe from "Dirty Jobs"

Fantastic stuff here. My grandfather must have caught enough fish to feed the state o GA. Unfortunately I dont have a single one to share. So, thanks to the rest of you for showing yours. Helps bring back memories.
