I had a grand paw but he was commercial fishing Sardis for catfish back then but Granny knew that spillway like the back of her hand.She was the 1 that really taught me to fish.I would take one of her long cane poles and a bucket of minners I got from Wallaces across the road from their fish camp and ride my bike to the spillway to her secret spot for crappie!She knew where they were!Great memories!
Miss those days, pop would have loved fishing and visiting with you guys at camps and tourneys. Took flowers to his grave Saturday and visited with him a little while, always tuff to go there but always seem to leave with a smile on my face. Cherish the memories and try hard to make time to make new ones with my girl!!
My grandma would fish all day long. She always took a smaller cane pole for bream and a big catfish pole. My grandad would sit and wait all day with his rod and reel. a larger shiner on a hook waiting for big bass. The last pic we had of them together, she had a 16 lb blue cat and he had a couple 4-5 lb largemouths.
I sure do miss those days as well !!!!! Like Donnie, I can't wait to pass that torch to my Grandkids tho.
Ahh... the Good Ol' Days
My granny would take me fishing down at the dock, they lived on Old Hickory Lake outside Nashville. Never had a boat, just the dock. Granddad didn't fish, just listened to the radio most of the day.
My only grandparent died when I was 4, but my parents took us all the time. This is a real nice post. thanks.
Yep, remember them days of cork, minnow and cane poles.
Grandpa is still around. ....He is called pepaw on here
