From the pit!
This is world wide news......
Today I escorted a news team from Gremany and was not only interviewed by them but by the AP out of Houston, Texas while I was waiting for the German crew to show up. Late tonight we have a news team flying in from France and will be landing in Miami at 10:00 pm. They should land in New Orleans about 1:00 am. They are scheduled to stay here and I will most likely be running them on my boat sometime tomorrow.
Every body is scrambling for help. My 100 ton masters license will put me on a boat yesterday. I can almost pick what I want to do at this time. I am content at this time.
A few captains ran out on a fun trip because every one of thier customers canceled and came back with a cobia, some nice mangrove snapper, a few gag grouper, and a bunch of scamp grouper. The fish are here but the media are scaring away the customers.
P.S. The oil is also here but not the heavy stuff like that in Alaska.
Life is Good!

Fishing is not a matter of life or death. It's more important than that.
