We are only one week from the 20 Soldiers of the 101st Airborne (Air Assault) arriving in Florence, AL at Pickwick Lake for the start of the second Operation HOOAH. These Soldiers are wounded warriors fishing for two days in this Southern Fishing News event for some mental healing and time out of an Army hospital. On the second day, November 3, the Soldiers will fish with another volunteer Boat Guide on Wilson Lake. Such a project takes a lot of community and industry support.
