Drew Brees bow-fishing like a boss

quote:

Roussel said it was great being with the whole group, which included Luke McCown, Logan Kilgore and Ryan Griffin.

The players enjoyed the competition, and Roussel said it didn’t take long for Brees to find his mark with the bow.

“That was his first time. I think it was everybody’s first time,” he said. “He picked up on it quick. After his second or third shot, he already hit his first fish.”

The boat didn’t return to Roussel’s lodge on Happy Jack Canal until after 5 a.m.

“Once they got into it, Drew’s attitude was, ‘We’re not leaving until we fill the box,’” he said. “He’s such a laid-back guy. He was so down-to-earth, a great guy to be around.

"When someone would shoot a fish, Drew would get on his hands and knees every time to open the ice chest in the floor of the boat. We have regular customers who expect more catering than that. He was having a blast getting down and dirty with it."
