Eliot’s lunker

Cousin Dan let me know about a picture of his nephew Eliot (with an impressive smallmouth) that’s currently featured at the Bob Coan site. It’s been a while since I saw the lad, and—wow—is that generation maturing fast or what? Tom C responded, “That reminds me of the time Uncle Ed caught a big catfish in the Stillwater. Then he distracted me and put the fish on my hook and threw it back in the water; I was about eight.”

Dan thinks Tom’s recollection of my dad is a good reminder of “the kind of guy he was.”

It is, indeed.

Nice “hawg,” E.D.
