Product Description
by Shawn Williams (Illustrator), Randy Williams (Author)
It was very easy finding something the main character of this book is good at - his ability to get into predicaments. The unlikely resolutions of these predicaments make the story. He has a way of falling into a steamy pile of misadventures, but usually ends up coming out smelling OK. It isn't that big fish that you caught; or that huge buck - it's the exaggerated memories.

For 30 years, Randy shared much of his knowledge of the outdoors with his students in his general shop class for the New London School District. His student's projects often included making fishing lures, turkey calls, deer stands, etc. He is now retired from teaching and enjoys fishing and hunting full time, often with his two sons, Shawn and Chad. The sign on his front door states "A fisherman and the catch of his life live here." Kathy, his wife of more than 36 years, picked out the sign.
