50,000 !!!!

My intent was to help promote the numerous God-given outdoor resources we have in Union Parish and our surrounding and to do it in an entertaining … Continue reading

Have you any fish?
First of all, let me say that I take the Bible and what it says very seriously. But occasionally I get a laugh when I read a verse that really applies to George and I. John 21: 3-5 “I’m going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they said, “We’ll go with you.” So … Continue reading

No No No No No….
You may think that this hot weather and the lousy fishing is driving me bananas, but I just thought I needed to share this. There are many things you don’t do when you go fishing, but at the top of the list is: Never bring a banana in the boat. No No No No No. … Continue reading
Here. There. Everywhere.
I only got really lost in the woods once. Well, I wasn’t really lost. I just couldn’t find my way home. About halfway through a mile-long walk from a deer stand in the deep, old woods inside the Mississippi River levee, my flashlight went dead. It was dark. Country dark. Country in-the-woods dark. This was … Continue reading
