So do big lake regulars big deal. But stereotyping guides is bs. If he's as close as u say then he can hear u just tell tell em hey ur getting a lil close and I'm sure 99.9percent will back up. I have never seen one guide that has ever got that close to me. Now I've seen em waiting back lil ways and if they thick enough and there in a position to ease in and not spook I'll wave em in. But yet I've had non guides try to come in. I keep topwater tied on at all times just to protect my area I can throw over 50 yds 360 degrees to protect my spot trust me if u cast at sum1 boat they ain't comin closer. 50 yds should be good enough. Not to spook as long as they don't use big motor

Won't ever say anything bad about another guide r guide service most of us are all friends just some r better than the rest. Just trust me there's lots of guides that shouldn't be in my opinion if u don't have 10yrs on lake u shouldn't guide. Yea im new but was born and raised here been fishing all my life here grew up on choupique bayou had 1st boat at 11 and would fish big lake 3 days a week after school and just about every weekend from feb to duck season

Yes....this is true...

Anyone can guide with a cell phone and binoculars but would not ever do anything if they had to depend on finding there own fish

the real great guides keep most things to them self and only share with a small trusted group..

most will never call anyone over to fish




I have been on reefs many of times and catching fish, when one guide boat pulls up and starts catching and calls over 5 more boats. then the bite stops because of all the traffic

Make a post ask who's good guide then pm the people that reply and chiose

[CaptSI]

[Top Dawg]

The reef is there and it ain't gonna move so deal with it. Just the way I look at it.

[all star rod]

Ok DoubleU......i believe you.....happy now.

Man, this thread went to hell.


But, then again...they pretty much all do.

I like to fish Commissary and can not fish it like I like to from about mid week thru Sunday morning cause of boats running all over it heading down the east bank or heading south. They see boats on the reef but they just run right over it coming and going, but most probably do not even know there is a reef there.

Post the coordinates to every spot you guys fish so that we can be sure not to motor over them.

It is amazing how the point of this thread was lost. W simply commented that they should have planned the location of the reef better and everyone went off that he was whining. I agree it should have been placed elsewhere and now we all deal with it. For this to have turned into bashing the guides who post on here is ridiculous. Kade certainly did not deserve it. I have fished with him and he is as nice a guy you can meet. I have not fished with Jared but his rep is great and he has shared more info than most guides would do. The problem with forums and email and testing is that it is too easy to post crap cause you don't have to face the people you post about. I have fished with W and will do it again. Let's all get back to what this forum is about, sharing info about the thing we love to do, fish!

^^^^ this^^^^^^
They always have to look at it like we crying or *****ing


I'm just stating FACTs that the reef was placed in a high traffic area , they should of consider using landings as points to areas and they could of seen that if your leaving Hebert landing heading to wash out, 9mile ,west cove old river, jetties , channel , super cut , steam engine , jrs, you will run clean over some part of the reef
That is my point ...there was no thinking or planing in place

The first mention of a guide and probably the comment that started the "guide bashin" was Kade's 2nd post (#13). He admitted that he probably over-reacted and apologized for it. Done!!

Salty you have zero business even discussing something about our lake....all you do is try to start crap and get people to bite on your ignorant comments (looking for attention)

Really you have not fished in years so this discussion has nothing in it for you at all

So unless we are talking about
Painting baits
Smoking
OU football
Or senior citizen discounts

Butt out

You have no license to charter, so, you have no business in a discussion about guides.
