Memories of grandpa

george RAYMOND26 Comments

I remember my

Grandpa’s old hat

was covered in

fishing lures.

***

And he wore that hat every day

***

There were pink ones,

and green ones,

and blue ones,

and yellow ones.

***

Some were shaped like fish,

and some didn’t resemble

anything at all.

***

I don’t recall grandpa

catching any fish with

those lures

***

But I do remember the day

he removed his hat too

quickly

***

and grandpa caught

an entire human scalp.

  2. Have you seen “Big Fish,” a film by Tim Burton starring Ewan McGregor, Albert Finney, and a number of other notable actors? Your post today reminds me of that film, which I have on DVD. It might inspire you to grow the legend of your grandfather…

    • My first time fishing was devastating. I had all this nice equipment, and I loved finding places for all my new stuff in my official fishing carry-case, with its many little pockets and flaps. But soon after I discovered that fishing involved actually killing a fish — and as my parents often repeated, I totally lost it.
