Old pic

[b35w]

I think I posted this years ago but came across this again tonight. Was my great-great grandfather years ago and was either caught on the Congaree or Edisto River. I wish I had the original pic to hang up in my office.

That'd have been a good one next year.

Was his last name Flake?

My Great-Uncle Wylie,

The 2nd pic is downtown Greenwood, not sure of the year. He specialized in smoking cigarettes, catching fish, and growing tomatoes

My Great Granddaddy Tucker at Edisto. Not sure of the date, but it was back when you dressed up to go fishing.

My grandfather told me stories of the rockfish spawning "drop" on the North Edisto where Caw Caw Creek emptied in where they would wear out the 20-30 pound rockfish. Near what is now Orangeburg Country Club. He also said the sturgeon used to be so thick that they would shoot them with rifles off the bridge at the rose gardens. Hard to fathom either.

Antley's Barbecue has a 20-30 pounder mounted that they caught on a dead eel on a trotline or bush hook in the North (I think) Edisto back in the 60s or 70s.

He lived in North so could have been from that area

Or all the newfangled contraptions used to catch fish these days.
