Chadwick Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 I don't get to add a post much here but....I thought this was pretty cool. My wife & I, along with with my dad and step mom, went to St. Simons Island, Ga. this weekend and were staying right on the beach. Well yesterday after coming in from doing some surf fishing we went to the pool. Well I noticed this guy in the center of the pool looked familiar. It was David Blanton. Well I kept telling my dad it was David...of course he didn't think it was him. Well I didn't want to bother him and his family on their vacation. But after swimming I did happen to pass by him and his wife. I just asked are you "David Blanton" & he responded yes and shook my hand. I happened to be carrying my surf rod and he was asking me how the fishing went. He's a really nice fellow. Well I just thought it was pretty cool to meet someone like that & thought I'd share my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadwick Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Yeah, David acted like a great guy. Looks like he's got a great family also. The fishing was great...but didn't catch the bigger sharks that we caught a couple weeks ago. I had a 4-5 footer run me and my dad out of the water though. That was pretty scary. He was in ankle height water running a school of bait fish right between us and didn't care we were there. Needless to say we were walking on water trying to get outta there! Couple weeks back me and my youngest brother caught around 60 of 70 in a 2 day period. About 90% were 12inches long, but we did catch about 4 or 5 sharks that pushed 3ft.

buckee Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 That would be cool to run into David in passing like that. I've never met him, but have very much respect for him as a hunter, as a speaker, and as a Christian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
