Succesful Show Season ends with a bang. Lance Dupre was involved in an unfortunate vehicle accident on Interstate 10 near Crowley, Louisiana late Sunday night while returning from the Houston Fishing Show. A high gust of wind struck his trailer and the truck hydroplaned during a violent storm. Lance was able maintain control of his truck after hitting both side rails of the Interstate with his trailer. Lance was not injured, The trailer is a total loss. Lance is trying to return telephone calls and will be restoring his inventory and start shipping orders on Monday March 18, 2013. Thank all of you for your patience until Lance can get organized and back to work shipping orders. I was following him and he was quite fortunate save his truck and not have any serious injury.

Thanks everyone for the well wishes. It was a very close call and I'm very fortunate to be here. The shop is almost back in order and I should have everyone's order that was placed while I was in Houston out by Friday.

I want to thank everyone for their patience and understanding. It means a lot to me.

Thanks again,
Lance
