He gave a little bit of info. He just put us in a decent spot West of Leeville, La.
It was O.K., nothing exciting. He usually has a camera man, but he was off
sick. There was a lot of footage cut out. Most of the info. is on the TV show,
not as much in the boat.
He was at a boat show in New Orleans, had his own booth there, and was
looking for fishermen to take out for his show. I guess the economy was hurting
his business cause he told my sister in law that we could go fishing for 2 days,
including bait and 2 hotel rooms for $500, for 4 fishermen.
She signed up her husband and kids, but only one kid wanted to go, so me and
my brother in law's brother got to go too.

He is basically an outdoor TV show producer, not a guide. He is given a boat to
use every year. As well as bait, rod and reels, power pole, clothing... ect., as
long as he plugs their equipment on the show.
Blue Cross insurance is one of his biggest sponsors. The rest are fishing equip.
If you fish, you can also plug your business on the show.
He has to give the old boat back at the end of the season, but gets a new one
in return. He gets to keep all the other stuff.
