This picture was taken in 1977,my father had come down from Rome,GA to visit me and I took him on a weekend trip to Okeechobee.He was 77 years old and had a ball.I owe my love of fishing to him, he put a pole in my hand when I was 5 years old.

This is my Donna with her 9 lb. bass,caught at Lake Okeechobee.We had gone back to the marina for more gas and she and her husband went inside the marina,she came back with this horrible looking chartreuse colored plastic worm that she had bought. I said to myself that was sure a waste of good money. And dont you know that is what she caught the bass with.On my next trip I had a good selection of chartreuse plastic worms. We had the bass mounted.
