That's great Jerry. I can vouch for Jerry's ability to fish and his generosity. I was fishing beside him a couple of weeks ago as he pulled them in. I told him I was going to give some fish to a friend for a benefit fish fry. He offered to give me some fish also. I declined because I put up fish for friends and relatives and had plenty. On a side note the benefit was in Archer City last Sunday and they raised $26,000.00. They must of got a lot of money for a plate of fish:) I'm sure there were other funds raiser along with the fish.

What a blessing! I have always been told that you don't have to brag about doing something well, your efforts and passions speak for them-self. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work. Amen!

I would like to chime in here, not to take away from Jerry's fortune, but to put some icing on the cake... Back in December I gave a bunch of jigs away that were just lying around, some of ya'll might remember... Well to make a long story short Jerry won the give away... Not long after I got a call from Jerry, he said he wanted to build Jigum Jigs a new web site.. Been wanting to get a web site back up and running but couldn't afford it right now.. Jerry said he wanted to build it no charge.. After he convinced me to take the ball and run Jigum Jigs was up and running again... I believe that God had a special intention when He Brought Jerry into my life... I've developed a friendship that's very special to me.. When I started Jigum Jigs several years ago I turned it over to God, asked that He bless it and away it went... Now God has brought Jerry into my life and I get a personal blessing myself, a friend... I've had the fortune to meet a great bunch of people here on the forum, and I believe Jerry is one of those that I can put in that special group..
Thanks Jerry for your friendship.... To GOD BE THE GLORY!

Just like You and Tony blessed us with fish for Susan's benefit fish fry Joe. It sure is nice to know the good things we all do since the news is full of the bad stuff.
