Hunt Smart, Fish Hard: The Beast Feast with Hank Parker
Years ago I met Mr. Hank Parker at the Beast Feast in Lynchburg. I few years later I met him again but this time it was at the Fishersville Outdoor show. I showed him a picture of himself and asked him after all these years did he remember where this photo was taken. Hank looked at the picture, a few seconds passed and he looked at me and said, “Lynchburg Beast Feast.” I told him he was right and what a memory. We chatted for a little bit and I told him about his trick, I figured it out into catching big crappie. Hank was using Gulp Minnows with a spinner blade. I watched that TV show over and over and I couldn’t figure it out. Then I played it in slow motion and caught it. When I told Hank what I saw, he smiled and said it works!
