Osprey gets fish at 2008 PODS PGA golf tournament

I was just searching youtube for some videos on fishing, because I am a fishing geek! I found this great video of an Osprey catching a giant fish during the PODS PGA golf tournament. It's kind of a nice combination of skills, since I am also into golf and golf management! Maybe that Osprey could use a golf consulting person to help him out with the rules of golf since he obiviously wasn't that interested in the PODS tournament to spot that fish from way up there in that tree. However, I wish it was that easy for me to catch fish, so I hope he stickes with fishing and doesn't start a Golf management companies.

Anyways that's enough of me rambling on about golf and fishing, enjoy the vid!

Great Fishing Video

Volunteers from Friends of Lake Eufaula State Park, Eufaula Bass Club, Checotah Optimist Club, and Checotah Business and Professional Group came to the event to help with the registration, judging, assisting the kids while they were fishing and hot dog cooking.

The Big Fish Trophy went to Haley Jo Adams for a catfish that was 17.50 inches long.
The Sportsmanship Trophy went to Jett Jenkins of Checotah for never giving up and trying very hard.

There were 58 youth who actually fished and many parents and volunteers who attended. The Frisbie Youth Fishing Derby has been held for over 25 years and has often been the time when local youth have caught their first fish. Tackle supplies provided by the sponsors were given to each of the participants along with door prizes. This will help the youth and promote the sport of Fishing for another generation.
