Henry Caimotto, from the Snook Nook and of local TV fame, will visit our Anglers’ Club for an unprecedented 7^th (or is it 8^th?) time.  The meeting will be in the HOA on Monday, March 10th, at 7:00 PM.

 

As usual, we have no idea what to expect or what colorful commentary on our local and federal governments Henry might have to offer.  An activist for many years, Henry calls them like he sees them.  And after three hurricanes, Lake O dumping, and the “restructuring” of the west side of the Indian River, there’s no telling what Henry may have to say.

 

In the past, Henry has brought along a variety of professional guides at times, and in some cases brings along some new lures for us to try out.  Again, Henry is full of surprises, so you never know.

 

Needless to say, we owe our guest speakers a decent level of interest, attendance, and support.  Although Henry usually attracts a good crowd, we can’t take it for granted.  Everyone, including spouses, has a fun time when Henry comes calling.  Make it a point to join us for a great evening with Henry.

A man was on the water for his weekly fishing trip. He began his day with an 8 Lb walleye on the first cast and a 7 Lb on the second. On the third cast he had just caught
his first ever walleye over 11 pounds when his cell phone rang. It was a doctor notifying him that his wife had just been in a terrible accident and was in critical condition and in the ICU.

The man told the doctor to inform his wife where he was and that he ' d be 0there as soon as possible. As he hung up he realized he was leaving what was shaping up to be his best day ever on the water. He decided to get in a couple of more casts before heading to
the hospital He ended up fishing the rest of the morning, finishing his trip with a
stringer like he'd never seen, with 3 walleye over 10 pounds. He was jubilant.... Then he remembered his wife. Feeling guilty he dashed to the hospital. He saw the doctor in the corridor and asked about his wife's condition.

The doctor glared at him and shouted, ' You went ahead and finished your fishing trip didn't you! I hope you ' re proud of yourself! While you were out for the past four hours enjoying yourself on the pond your wife has been languishing in the ICU! It ' s just as well you went ahead and finished because it will be more than likely the last fishing trip you ever take! For the rest of her life she will require 'round the clock care. And you'll
be her care giver forever!’ The man was feeling so guilty he broke down and sobbed.

The doctor then chuckled and said, ' I'm just messin' with ya. She's dead. What'd you catch?’
