While my cousin Cory was down fishing, he helped host a group of soldiers from Fort Bragg for a “Heroes on the Water” outing. “Heroes on the Water” is a program that allows wounded, injured or disabled veterans to get out on the water on kayaks and do some fishing as an aid the their recovery. If a smile is any indication, Saturday morning was a great success. For info, go to http://www.heroesonthewater.org/.

Kayak Fishing

Fishing, Kayak


Saturday morning I met my cousin Cory Routh at Randleman lake in Randolph County, North Carolina for a few hours of kayak fishing. It was a gorgeous day and the first time I had been on the lake that has just opened to the public south of Greensboro. Cory runs a kayak fishing guide service out of Virginia Beach and can be found at http://www.ruthlessfishing.com/. Kayaks are a good way to get into out of the way fishing spots and are very green environmentally. Not to mention the fresh air and exercise. Cory’s dad Larry lends a hand as well.

Digital Photography Workshop

Fishing, Photography


This past weekend, I had the pleasure of teaching a basic digital photography workshop in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The workshop was sponsored by my cousin Cory Routh who besides working for the State of Virginia as a marine biologist doing water quality work, runs a kayak fishing service in the Tidewater area called Ruthless Fishing. I hope the students enjoyed and learned something from the Saturday class. I know I enjoyed it. The workshop was held at First Landing/Seashore State Park on Cape Henry, a nice natural area with cypress swamp.
