They’re fishing 50 waters in 50 days
 

A man and his son are on a 50-day adventure that passed through Lake Guntersville Friday.

Jeff Turner of Virginia and his teenage son Taylor are fishing 50 trophy waters in 50 states in 50 days, and their tight schedule brought them here last week.

We weren’t able to get in touch with them. But we were able to track the position of their boat and read their story on the Internet. Mr. Turner took his inspiration from a book “Wild at Heart“ by John Eldredge. It talks about a passion for adventure.

After one of his friends died, Mr. Turner decided to honor his friend’s memory by taking the trip with his son.

They started June 13 in Pennsylvania. They will travel by recreational vehicle, boat and airplane. They’re shooting for 20 species of fish, including largemouth bass at Guntersville.

They are scheduled to be in Hawaii by July 30.

You can read more about the trip and track their progress on the Internet at: http://www.fish5050.com.
