Oh, and watch out for that guy, Bruce Condello. He's from Nebraska.


Yeah, I've read a few of the horror stories about the hatcheries suggesting things that don't work. I've called and introduced myself to the guy I think we're going to go with and got a good "vibe". \:D

Yeah, I've been hearing about this Bruce guy, but I'm thinking he's an urban legend or something because I haven't seen him yet. \:\)
