Monster Large Mouth 3/5

Chapter Three: The Near-Miss

Then came the tug I would never forget.

The line pulled like a small dog had latched onto it. I jumped in, nearly losing rod and reel.

Whatever had grabbed it — a massive Blue Channel Catfish or the Monster Large Mouth Bass — I couldn’t say.

The line snapped.

Scoreboard: Scott L. 2 – Monster 1.

Some victories are fleeting. Some are lessons.

3/5

Scott L.

Born Blessed in South Korea in 1969 and raised in Baltimore, I’ve built a career with 20 years in customer service and 10 years in behavioral health. The crowning jewel of my studies came when I earned the only passing grade of an A from a Harvard professor — a true master of the craft of Shakespeare

And the English language, whose guidance opened the gateway to worlds of imagination, discipline, and wonder.

Married for 25 years, I share the good life with two dogs (Isabella and Juliet) and one cat named Maddie. In my free time, I enjoy writing, biking, gospel music, and spending time with my pastor and friends.
