BY GENEVIEVE STORY

PARAGLIDE

Pro-anglers visited students at Devers and Bowley elementary schools on Fort Bragg, May 8, for a morning of fishing education and boat safety. Students in the third, fourth and fifth grades gathered outside their schools and were greeted by two professional anglers and their 20-foot bass fishing boats. Steve Hice, of Morgantown, North Caro- lina and Randy Yarnall, of Womelsdorf, Pennsylvania, provided the children with a hands-on experience into the life of a seasoned, touring, professional fisher- man. Yarnall and Hice were just two of the 144 bass fishing professionals who par- ticipated in Warriors on the Water, a military appreciation bass fishing tourna- ment honoring the men and women of the armed forces at Jordan Lake, North Carolina, May 10. “We love to see the children on the boats,” Yarnall said. “Pushing the horn, sitting in the driver’s seat … A lot of these kids haven’t stepped foot on a boat, espe- cially one like this. We enjoy seeing their faces light up when we explain how fast the boat can go (approximately 70 to 80 mph), where the stern and the rudder are, Photos by Lewis Perkins/Paraglide the only two parts touching the water at that speed, and there are no brakes.” to find that in eight to nine hours.
