I actually know a guy from Elkin! I’ll see if I can find out more about this fisherman? and get back with the dirt.

My brother-in-law used a Dora the Explorer fishing rod two years ago at Lake Cherokee and caught a bass. Think some of the Bassmasters people may want to stock up on children’s fishing rods!

Here’s one for everyone ….
DeWitt County deputy, Brandon Riedel, filmed an unidentifiable animal along back roads near Cuero, Texas on his dashboard camera.The animal was about the size of a coyote but was hairless with a long snout, short front legs and long back legs.

My source failed me! He didn’t know the guy but he did know the grocery store where the fish was weighed. Who cares about that! Needless to say I passed the information along to my husband and he is looking into tuning up the Spiderman rod my son has been using. I guess you can’t knock it until you try it.

Must be somethin bout those rods. My niece caught her first catfish, 4lbs, with one. Not near as big.. But still.

Pretty soon, we’ll be seeing those burly bass fisherman in tournaments fishing with them.
