I have the conversation right here. I've corrected all W's spelling to make it easier to read:

Florida guy - "So, you saltwater fish alot?"

W - "Yep. I work for NASA so I can geaux pretty much any time."

Florida guy - "I'm an avid angler, also. Where do you do most of your fishing?"

W - "I own a lake in southwest Louisiana. I named it Big Lake. What is your favorite bait?"

Florida guy - "I make my own baits. It's a huge rush knowing that you fooled a trout or red on a homemade lure. What baits do you use?"

W - "I designed a bait called a Corky. I just sold my business a while back and the originals are selling for $75 each. I have 3 of my favs that I'll sell you for the price of 1."

Florida guy - "I'd like to come up there and try out my baits. I catch some huge trout down here on these lures."

W- Yeah, I catch big trout all the time wade fishing. Do you wade down there?"

Florida guy - "No, I'm kinda short so wading is kinda out of the question for me. I sure wish I could, tho."

W - "I always knew my height would come in handy for something. I never liked basketball but it sure comes in handy while wading."

Florida guy - How tall are you?

W - 6' 6". I have 2 huge camps on my lake...maybe you can come and stay and I'll take you fishing."

Florida guy - "That would be great! I get excited about tryin' out my baits in other areas.

W - "I'll be glad to try them out and let you know what I think."

Florida guy - "Would you? I'll send you some and maybe you can get them going over there."

W - "Be glad to help out! How much do you get for them?"

Florida guy - "Well, I'm asking $6 because of all the time involved but if you can get some sales in your area....I'll let 'em go for $5."

W - "OK, I own a website called www.saltycajun.com so I should be able to sell plenty for you. I'll just collect the money and send it straight to you and you can ship the lures. How's that?"

Florida guy - "Great! Dang, W...you seem like a really nice guy."

W - Well, everybody seems to think so. I just try to help everybody out as much as I can.....you know, the less fortunate. I made the cover of Louisiana Sportsman Magazine and they said the interview was the most popular one ever."

Florida guy - Good deal. I'll try to plan a trip over there but my job makes it tough for me to leave more than one day at a time."

W - "Where do you work?"

Florida guy - "I'm a neurosurgeon."

W - "Wanna "conpare" salaries?"
