The Swine Flu has had an enormous impact on all of the various fishing locations throughout Mexico and the cancellations have been rampant for the past several days. While Mexico has about a 110 million people, the actual numbers that are ill are truly miniscule and I have not heard of a single flu problem from any of our fishing areas. Hopefully, it will remain that way until this dilemma has passed by. Unfortunately, the media has locked their jaws on the issue and have been relentless in their efforts to scare the public with endless descriptive adjectives that are often expansions of the real thing. I encourage each of you to "read between the lines" on some of the information/misinformation that is currently being floated around. In any event, this will "run it's course" in due time and things will get back to normal. Hopefully, it will be sooner than later.
