if you work/worked/will work for bp or its subsidiaries, of course you will take their side . understandable, you dont bite the hand that feeds you, but at the same time, don't chastised others that were affected , and have no other choice but beg for the pennies on the dollar that bp are paying

i like how you left out oyster purpose

One year of good fishing is nothing. The future is what we need to look out for. Bacteria did not eat up all the oil, there is much of it on the bottom of the seafloor. No one really knows what is going to happen with that oil down there, so much is unknown when it comes to larval cycles of marine animals and what all crawls along the seafloor down there. Maybe we will not see any future effects from the oil, BUT its still there. Just be glad you were not affected by the spill, like the thousands who were

Please tell me this guides name and where he fishes?

does any one know if it will play again or not. just for the record there is still oil in the marsh around four bayou as of about a month ago when i was down that way that is not going anywhere.

I have been working offshore for 28 years. I agree with what some of BP says, and think some of it is bull****.
I support the oil industry, cause it supports the economy of where I live and around where I live.
But in my opinion, BP screwed up. They had a bad well design, they tried to cut cost cause they were over budget. The company rep. on the rig makes the final decisions, he made some bad ones.

I think some of the people interviewed from Grand Isle are looking for cash too.
I fished Grand Isle after the blow out, and while most of the area was still closed.
I saw sheens and oil on the water, but couldn't smell it. I didn't get harmed in any way.
Several times in my career, I have been covered from head to toe in crude, had to throw away my clothes and boots, it never harmed me yet.

There was one girl that said her ears were bleeding, one guy said he had growths on his face, others saying the lining of their lungs were damaged... I call crap.
The blowout was 50 miles East of SW Pass and they are 50 miles West of SW Pass.

I agree there was oil all over Grand Isle, but not enough to harm anyone that stayed out of it.

If my lungs are stilll good and my ears are not bleeding after all the crude and condensate I have had on me all these years, then no one on Grand Isle should have any damage either.

BP put monitors on their workers, over 40K monitors, and none picked up any damaging chemicals.

The light ends like benzene were withered off by the sun before it got to the beaches.

I think the show was good, they showed both sides, tree huggers and non tree huggers.

Who was affected got paid....this is no long term effect and I touch and smell oil half a year...I pull oil samples daily and have for 11 years....Never got sick take a physical once a year and the only health problem I have is high cholesterol and if oil did that its Bush fault ....

No one go sick from this oil..only cash hungry people looking for a pay out


Like Ray..I have been covered head to toe in oil...even had it go in my mouth before...Never once got sick...and find someone offshore who has gotten sick because of oil smell or being around oil.....


No one can find any oil in the Gulf...Your not...its gone.....gone..gone....

And I dont know how they can blame BP for this because the BOP failed...so any mistakes above should of been stopped by this device


Here is the final video of the failure...So all what happened when and were could of been prevented by this device

He fished from Grand Isle to Burres and he is a member on this site...If he wants to say his name....He can..

He told me the fishing has been the best in 10years and shrimp are thick in the marshes.....He also said he spoke with several scientist that took his fish for sampling and also took shrimp...everything over the last year is clean and 100% safe with no harm....


Oil leaks in the gulf everyday by mother nature....Oil is earth....Get over it....its over and gone...

Was nothing to do w/ the oil . I know plenty of guides in the G.I.area that say this year is not a bad year but is sub par from past years. Wondering who it was so i could see if he's doing something different. I been fishing the island for over 40 years and i promise you that the years around 2000-2003 were alot better than any in the last 6 years. I am not calling B.S. till i talk to this guide.

I know this...He was down in Grand Isle a week ago when the winds were calm..He texted me several days with 75-100 trout by 9am-10am....

Oysters are man made and reseeded on that side of the state....they have been tested and passed also....The few beds that were covers with oil were taken out or removed ......

LA oysters are on the market

it doesnt make any sense to have studies when there is clearly a conflict of interest, in the studies , and in the claims process---bp has their hand in everything!! they made sure of that at the beginning and have even influenced politicians, and yes, even the coast guardies

Stop Smoking it..............all those links you posted are liberal tree hugger links.....

What about the seafood guy from Grand Isle who hired his own scientist from up north and they could not find anything...out of 100olbs of shrimp, over 500 crabs.....over 500 kinds of fish??? I guess BP paid them off behind the back.....

Get real....

You see there 'W', there IS still oil:eek: There is oil along Pass-a-Loutre as well. There is oil on the bottom of the ocean also. Will we ever see it or will it affect us? Who knows!

I agree that much of this was very much overplayed and there are lots of people getting paid that shouldn't. The media tried to spin it every way they could to make it seem like the world was going to end, at first they reported barrels of oil, then that was not a big enough scare so they started saying gallons in order to make it a much bigger number to add to the shock and awe. Whatever the true number of gallons that were leaked out, it is a drop in the bucket of the GOM.

and the links you posted...wait , you didnt post any links..u just copy and pasted...:work: first of all you clearly have a conflict of interest also, you're on the fricken other side of the state.very close to .texas almost...you can't tell me people aint' hurting, you can't tell me (not just oyster harvesters----shuckers also) but that probably dont mean sschat to you... my mom is a shucker and work definitely has slowed dramatically since the spill. remember, we know you're not trying to bite the hand thatfeeds you, but also remember this...closed mouths don't get fed, and in the case of bp, nobody got fed.


?
ps..oh yeah i worked the spill, and i seen and experienced the ludicrous/ridiculous attempt at "trying" to clean it up.what did you do?

Buras !!!!!!!

Since when r oysters man made?

THey always have been.... you didnt know that ???


Whats wrong with you people. "W" is ALWAYS right !!!!!!!!!!!

X2! I was one of the first boats to work after the spill all the way from bay st. louis, to grand I , and saw more than what many could ever belive. Any body who thinks all that oil just dissapeared , is clearly mistaken. How much do you wann see, and when? I had High ranking CG officals on my boat for 30 days, who were scared ****leess at how much oil I could find in a days time, and more day after day. Barataria to Venice, all the way to breton sound has been my stomping ground for the last 27 yrs of my 30, on the water, and if you did not witness it with your own two eyes, you just dont know, and still dont. I honesty thought after last year, our estuary would not bounce back nearly as fast as it did, but its something ive never seen or dealt with befor either. No I dont think its comepletyely over, but am impressed with how well it is at the same time. There is definately still oil out there still, ive seen it on our beaches and in our marsh just as of 5 days ago, you just have to look. some is visable, and some has to be dug up. Come on out of your pond on the west side, and head this way if you wanna see some sad **** before you make false accusations. Im not trying to start problems, Im just stating cold hard facts boys and girls.

:shaking: They r reseaded in some places by man, but were here before a bunch of W's
