I have fished waters all over the US coast with many different guides. Some I wouldn't ever go out with again even though we caught plenty of fish. Others I've went with have fished hard with all day and couldn't get a bite but I'd go out with them again in a heart beat. The biggest difference is personality. Even if it's a bad day fishing I will still be generous with a tip as long as I have a good time. Have a positive attitude and just try to put me on the fish, I'll catch them and if I miss one, its really ok.... I'm paying for the trip and don't care if you don't have bragging rights for the night at the bar with the guys. Bragging rights should be the fact I've booked with you several times over the years and recommend you to friends.
