KOSA The Kosa retirees were on Lake Hickory last week and leading up to it, all hoped for better results than the first trip a few weeks back. It was a little better, but still not what most know that lake can be. John Black and Roger McNeilly had 6.80 and picked up the win with Fred Wright and Ken Johnson a close second with 6.15. Arnold Ledford and Coleman Hoyle took third with 3.60. Big bass was a 4.20 largemouth brought in by the team of Wright and Johnson. This week, Lake Norman will be the choice lake from 6am til 12 noon. MOSS Twenty boats fished Moss Lake last Thursday in the weekly bass tournament. Brian and Cody Hoyle got the win with 10.60. Richard McAbee fished solo and was second with 8.85, while Randy and Randall Wright was a close third with 8.30. Nathan White and Scott Yarbro brought in 6.20 and settled in fourth and rounding out the top five was Chris Edwards and Donnie Beason with 5.55. Big bass was a 3.30 largemouth brought in by Randy and Randall Wright. CCBC The Cleveland County Bass Club fished Lake Rhodhiss recently and Virgil Hamrick grabbed the win. Hamrick had 11.14 and easily out distanced the field. John Rankin had 7.64 and was second followed by James Osborne with 7.60. Roger Hamrick was fourth with 7.52 with Ronnie Humphries rounding out the top five with 6.84. Big bass was a 3.90 largemouth brought in by James Osborne. August will find the CCBC on High Rock Lake.

What are you waiting for? There are no age, sex or physical limitations and it’s a great way to build a healthy mental attitude. Fishing can be a lawn chair THE BENEFITS OF If you’ve always wanted By Gary Miller By I’m convinced that most hunters and fi shermen never contemplate the out- door world they take pleasure in. I know in my own life, that without a concerted effort, I only enjoy creation without ever giving it much deep thought. I’ve espe- cially noticed this truth when I speak to hunters and fi shermen. It seems their eyes light up when they come to a re- alization that nature speaks very loudly about some things that really matter. And that sometimes we really do not see the forest, for the trees. We would be very shallow people if we only saw na- ture as another avenue for our personal pleasure. The immensity of creation de- mands we question it. It demands we understand how our sport only touches the hem of its real value. Let’s face it; we only play on the fringes of all that is out there. It is enormous. And the more we look, the more we discover. We have learned in recent years that our own galaxy is only one of about 3000 visible galaxies. And it is estimated that there are billions that are yet unseen. To put this in perspective; our Milky Way is estimated to be about 100,000 light years from one end to the other. 1993 HONDA, 4 dr, 4 cyl, 17” rims, runs good. $1800 firm. 704- 923-1006 after 10am.

Now multi- ply that by billions of galaxies. And then there’s me and you... In the scope of the vastness of the universe, we are less than insignifi cant. In import, we have no bearing on any- thing. We are not even a speck on the map. We do not deserve mention. If we are only an evolutionary blip, then what matters? Or who matters? Or are we all just matter? But what happens when we add God to matter? It’s like adding yeast to fl our. It makes it rise. It gives it fullness and texture and taste. The universe, without God, is meaningless and thus so is the actions of its inhabitants. All that we see and enjoy in nature is also meaningless without God. That is why it is so impor- tant for those of us who believe in God and who love to hunt and fi sh; to look more deeply into the God-made things around us and realize that the heavens declare the glory of God into our lives each day. www outdoortruths.or www..outdoortruths.org SporSportsman‘s Cornertsman‘s Corner 6-year-old Jack Bell caught this huge small mouth bass at the Broad River Greenway dur- ing his birthday fi shing trip with grandparents, Ken (pictured) & Judy Cook and his sister, Zee.
