Look us up next week. We are staying at Hendricks Creek in Cottage #4, fishing in his Triton, just look for the guy in the back of the boat with the All Pro doubled in half fighting the 5 pounder and Hens doing his usual Netboy impersenation. Pretty much fishing from First island to Illwill and will be idleing out of Hendricks Creek before first light. Hope to see you there.Originally Posted by dcbasser
By the way never been good enough, not good enough now, never will be good enough to start a "guide service". I have 3 offers on the table from fellas wanting me to take them FNF fishing at Dale in trade for me showing what I have learned over the years and I have a hard time in accepting any of these offers. 3sons gave me a G Loomis FNF rod as a gift a couple of years ago just for taking him out one day and he said he learned more that one day than he learned with 2 days with a certain guide on Dale. I just have a hard time in taking any money or money value just for helping a fella out with catching a few fish on the fly or teaching him something. Maybe it is just me and others would jump at the opportunities for "free" trips to the hollow and I do plan on going with the 3 but not so sure I won't pay my half when we do and if so hope they are not insulted. I was told by someone in the guiding business today that I should take them up on the offer because they will learn just as much from me as they would if they had to hire a guide at $300 for the day plus their other expenses of lodging, travel, gas and other.
