This cache is a tribute to my Dad (Carey), a WWII Vet and truck
driver born in Liberty, MS, who loved adventure and was a different
type of fisherman - a hand-grabber. At our house, the swing set
wasn’t just used for swinging, it was used to hang the giant
100-pound fish so they could be skinned. Kids looked on wide-eyed
as the big fish were dragged ashore. Hand-grabbers catch different
species of catfish and routinely get up to 60- to 70-pound fish.
Now, that’s a handful! Catfish is a big deal in the South.
Fried catfish is about as Southern and as much Mississippi as you
can get. These days, finding a fresh, hot catfish plate is easy. If
your stomach is rumbling, you don't have to look far. Hmmmn, you
should be smelling some good southern cooking around lunchtime at
this site, but if you want catfish it is served at Rowdy's about a
half mile south of here. Permission granted for placement of the
cache by property owner. Visit this site to learn how to log a
