Fish Spurs

This week, the freshman have been wearing their newly constructed to fish spurs. Spurs are a tradition that bring the fish class together in many ways. The spurs must be unified within the outfit and the fish all work together to make them. It is typically one of the first times that they all get to sit down and talk to each other for an extended period of time. I can still remember going to a buddy's lake house and making my fish spurs freshman year. The best part was having time to relax and get to know the people who would soon become my best friends.

Below are a few pictures of A-Co 17's spurs. There is also a link to an article by the Batallion.

The wire coat hangers that form the frame of the spur
were wrapped in duct tape to prevent damaging the shoe

The fish opted for a chain harness system to hold the spur on

From the back, the spurs form a "17"
