Letter from the inventor...

Hello, My name is William J. Rojas.  My father and I invented the Skimmers.  The Skimmers doubled the catching of shrimp in Louisiana.  People that have retired from fishing and shrimping have returned to work again because of the Skimmers.  We have improved this field of work by simplifying the work involved.  Skimming for a Living is less strenuous work!

The skimmers has lessened the by-catch, therefore, less small fish and crabs are lost.  This is because the tails can be picked up every few minutes and dumped.  You can dump the tails without stopping your work, the skimmer nets stay in the water and continue to catch shrimp or fish while you dump the tails.

The Skimmers can work from 2 ft up to 12 ft of water.  The Skimmers can be used in canals, on the seashore, in bays or anywhere you want to work.

Almost ANY BOAT CAN USE THE SKIMMERS.  Double Riggers, (large boats) and small boats are currently using the skimmers.  The Skimmers work so efficiently that they are now used world wide.  Fisherman are making more money than they ever have before!

My father, William N. Rojas, passed away two weeks after Hurricane Katrina hit Louisiana with a heart attack.  We were living at the mouth of the Mississippi River in a town called Venice, Louisiana.  Now my family has relocated to Lafayette Louisiana.  My niece decided to create a website and let people know about my and my father's invention of the skimmers. 

We will send you blueprints of the pattern of the Skimmers and pictures that show you how to rig your boat.  We will also send you a movie showing you how the Skimmers work.  Even if you don't shrimp for a living, you will know how shrimp are caught in Louisiana.  You will also receive a newspaper clipping of my father with an article on Skimming for a Living. 

We gave the Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries the right to sell the Skimmer Licenses and didn't make a profit for our invention; however, they gave us a registration number for the skimmers.  My family is happy to help others better themselves with more knowledge on catching shrimp through this great offer.

For a special low cost of $100.00, plus a shipping and handling fee of $4.00, you will receive all of the following:
1. Blueprint patterns of the Skimmers
2. Pictures that show you how to rig your boat
3. A movie showing you how the Skimmers work
4. A newspaper clipping of my father with an article on Skimming for a Living

As an additional bonus, you will receive a phone number that you can call for any unanswered questions that you may have.  We will assist you with any of your questions to help you.  I know you will be very delighted with the information that you will be provided.

Sincerely,

William J. Rojas
