My hero and mentor, Joe of Joe's Worms and Juicy Grubbs and Special Protein Drink is proud to announce his new product, Furled Trot Lines. He is looking for experienced wormers to test his new product.

Have him check the yellow pages for veterinarians.

Pete,

Really glad to see Joe expanding his business to include new products. Though I haven't had a need for his worms and juicy grubbs, his Special Protien Drink is a staple in my house. A glass of SPD early in the morning is better for the body than fiber or prune juice. Plus it builds strong bodies 13 ways (take that, Wonder bread).

I've also found that dipping your flies in a little SPD greatly improves your chances of hooking up with a nice fish.

Please congratulate Joe on his new product line, and convey my wishes for his continued success.

Hey Pete,

Joe ain't gonna like this, but the great
state of South Carolina's Department of
Natural Resources specifically forbids
the use of worms of any kind on trot lines
within the states borders. Furthermore,
each trotline will be restricted to a max
of 50 hooks and each trotline requires a
separate permit @ $2.50 each, for a max
of 3 trot lines per person or boat.
The recommended baits are soap, (???),
doughballs, and non-game fish pieces and
parts. No insects can be used as bait
either. Furthermore, any game fish taken
by this means will be immediately released.
In addition to the individual trot line
permits, you will need a state fishing
license and if you are selling catfish,
there is a $50 permit for that as well.
Failure to obey these regs can result in
confiscation of the trot lines, the boat
and motor used to fish them, and the vehicle
and trailer used to transport them, as well
as some hefty individual fines. Just
wanted to give Joe a heads up.*G* Warm
regards, Jim
