The Land of Ozz

On Friday I was at church for a small group leader rally. I happened to end up in the food line on the other side of the table from our senior pastor (Greg Surratt). He was sporting a picture of a big fish he caught earlier that same day up on the Wando River near the 41 bridge. I poked fun at him and told him all I wanted to know was the GPS coordinates of where he caught this beauty, the bait he used, etc. I am still waiting.

Now Pastor Greg’s fish was big, but I have news for him. His fish looks like bait compared to the one my good friend Gary Ezzo has posted a picture of on his web site. Seen on the right here is a picture of a man named Harold. Gary’s friend Harold caught this giant Drum (estimated at nearly 40 lb) in a hole that is not supposed to have fish this big. Gary gives the details of the fight between Harold and this monster Drum over on his site titled Carolina Fishing from Grandpa’s Dock.

Gary also posted a note over on GrowingKids.org tonight highlighting his new web site. He throws out a teaser on GrowingKids.org for his story titled An afternoon on the Wando River. Check out Gary’s new fishing site and drop him a little link love if you like fishing in the low country of SC. Shrimping season starts in just a few weeks, and I will guarantee you that you will be able to read about Gary catching his share of shrimp along side our mutual friend Rich Young.
