Fishizzle, I use worms but I'm looking to upgrade!
This weekend I finished up what I believe was my last guide trip of the season, and sadly career as time will not be available for me to do it over the next few summers. I just wanted to take the time to thank the many people on the site who have been loyal clients of mine over the past 3 years...it was a great run and an amazing learning experience for me. I met a lot of great people, saw a lot of great fish, and even networked a bit to help land my next job.
As for my Employer, West Branch Angler, I can't say enough about how much of a pleasure it was to work for them. This isn't a promotional message, but rather a genuine thank you for allowing me to do something I loved while also making some good money to enjoy my college years. I started going to the west branch angler when I was 7 years old(the weekend that big 33 inch brown was caught on the bar) and have loved the place ever since. I was proud to represent such a great lodge and will continue to support you with my purchases as I return back to "weekend warrior" status. I'd also like to thank guys like Jeff Church, moose, and John miller who I always felt showed me the ropes, willingly shared information, and defended me in the all too common guide disputes that can arise on the river. I hope we can continue to stay in touch and get on the water from time to time.
Lastly to some of the clients I know look here often, I just want to say it was a fun experience seeing you improve over the years, and over time many of us become good friends. While I'm sure you got tired of me telling you how your reach cast is terrible, that there is a quiet sipper on that bank so stop arguing with me, and that we weren't going in til dark sorry if you have dinner plans, I think the fish landed and laughs shared will be the lasting memory. Thank you
