Billy did this for my best friend and I in November. What an absolute stand up guy! We had the time of our life and I made a great new friend!!! ALSO SET MY PB! Trip of a life time I will never forget. Russell is headed to Korea in a few week for a year, Billy.
Who ever takes this trip you will not be disappointed, good on you Billy.

Great gesture. Hat's off to you young man. As a Vietnam vet, it is really great to see some offering some thanks to those who put their lives in harms way to protect our country and our allies.
Wasn't a great time back then but, that was another time and place.
Bravo Zulu Shipmate!
God Bless

I took my son Brian, who is an ARMY vet who served 2 tours in Iraq, fishing with Billy this past April.
Man did he put us on the fish and really took good care of Brian. He really does love fishing with the vets. He'll talk all day long about it while he finds the fish for you.
Billy, are they still on the ditch ?
Looking to bring Brian's mom down there soon.
Still have my boat seat put back ?
I have been putting all you taught me to good use up here at Lake Athens and Lake Fork.
Thanks Again for taking time out for our VETEREANS ....... GOD BLESS them and you.

Man wish I wasn't deployed to Africa right now I would take you up on your offer. I have always wanted to fish Falcon and this would be a great opportunity to. Good on you for offering this up!

Billy, Bob told me what a good guy you are and I have heard stories about you helping people. You are truly a good person and I pray for nothing more than continued success for you and your family.
