Hello all,
I'm not sure this worked the first time I tried, so will attempt again. Mobile Bay Magazine is interested in doing a story about the Gulf State Park Pier fishing community. If any of you are available to talk for a few minutes on April 20 or 21, on the pier, please let me know? I just need a few minutes of your time for a quote or two for the story.
Or you can email me at erburnett1976@gmail.com or call me at 251-689-1396
Thank you!
Emmett Burnett for Mobile Bay Magazine.
Emmett let me know when you are going to be on the pier and I'll do my best to be there I've fished saltwater all my life all up and down the East coast and Gulf coast and have never experience anything like the camaraderie of the fishing community of the Gulf State Park Pier a would be happy to discuss this with you
I expect I'll be there both days and will be glad to talk with you, that is, if you're interested in talking to someone who answers to "Haywire". Look for the yellow haywire flag on my pier cart.
FSHNTIME is the flag on my cart. Feel free to stop by and chat if Haywire will let you go for a while!
I hope y'all get to have a meet and greet. I think one of the big plusses for the fellowship on the pier is this forum. I appreciate all the participation from the members and how well it is run. Thanks for doing such a good job.
I figured y'all would come through!
please feel free to introduce him around.
As I explained to Emmett on the phone, this online community is representative of the pier community but not its whole membership by a far cry.
Every day has a mix of personalities present just like the mix of different fish. We all come from different places but the pier and fishing are our common thread.
Wish I could be there to meet him in person.
MBM mag is a top notch publication and widely read!
Thank you! Matt the photographer and I will be on the Gulf State Park Pier on April 20, 7 am. Hope to see you and the others then if you can.Quote:

After sunrise---good deal, I can put on my Hollywood shades for the photographer, and both of y'all can meet THE MOUSE.
Oh no George-not the mouse! Straight from O Brother Where Art Thou........Quote:

Mobile Bay Magazine's writer and photographer (me and Matt) are still on to be at Al. State Park Pier, April 20 (tomorrow), 7 am. We want to talk to fishing folks who frequent the pier often. You possibly will be included in the magazine story and become a famous celebrity, just like us. Ok, that's a stretch, nobody knows us, but you will be included in the story. Hope to see you tomorrow.
Hey, I'm already famous---must be seven or eight people know who I am. Heard they caught some Spanish, so I'll be there instead of going turkey hunting. I know you are relieved to hear that.
I look forward to meeting you. Tell the photographer to give me a chance to suck in my belly if he takes a photo of me.
I'm planning on being there
An article on Mr. Wire would be a good read i'm sure. Hope to see a great report today!
Reminds me of the old Buck Owens song. LOL :)Quote:
