    Default An American with Abilities

    A little while back Coach Bob had a few of us trying to figure out how to help a one armed angler. This young man takes things a little further.

    Jesse,

    Thank you so much for posting this! Needless to say, I was so impressed with this young man's determination that it brought a tear to my eyes. He is an inspiration to all. Since I work with disabled vets every other week at the local VA hospital with fly tying and fly fishing, I may just have to take my laptop with me and show this video to my students. I wish this young man lived close so that I could take him with me to the classes.

    I am impressed.....Job well done young man
    Warren
    Fly fishing and fly tying are two things that I do, and when I am doing them, they are the only 2 things I think about. They clear my mind.

    Many thanks for sharing this Uncle Jesse. A very impressive young man and an awesome fly. Like Warren, I'll be sharing this with our Project Healing Waters vets tomorrow!

    A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.

    Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.

    Makes me a bit ashamed of myself for whining when I can't get my material to do what I want it to do.

    Thanks for sharing.

    We take a lot of things for granted, don't we? Like God's gift of two arms and hands! Bravo to him! That is a will and a way!!!
