    Default Cool thing on ESPN

    I dont know if anybody would be interested in this or not,but I was just watching ESPN and they had this litttle thing on this guy named Clay that fishes on the FLW tour.The kicker to it was he doesnt have any arms or legs.He was born this way, he only has 1 small apendage for a arm on 1 side.This was the most amazing guy I have ever seen in my life.He holds the rod under his chin to reel and to fight fish in. Its just hard to explain how amazing this guy was, but he doesnt sit around and feel sorry for hisself or nothing ,just watching him he was the most upbeat, got goals for hisself and everything.
    I guess what Im getting at is from now on when I get up in the morning sore and feeling ruff, im just gonna remember there are people out there with alot less and they make do in life and never complain. I gotta hurry up and get my boat back outta the shop I have to much time on my hands to watch TV and think....Have a Safe New Year Guys!!

    Yeah that was neat..It was cool to see how he wouldnt even let a disability like that stop him from this great sport we call fishin..I would Love to see him make the cut on one of these big tournies..If he keeps it up he will get it.

    Saw him awhile back on another show. You just gotta admire him for following his passion of fishing instead of just giving up and feeling sorry for himself, even though he probably has a right to it.
