I would say most would rather catch a big bull redfish than a little 1 lb trout ANY DAY OF THE WEEK and the client is always right.

Dude Last year I had 8 11and 14 year old catching trout on sand eels....

only time I fished was to find them and I let them have it

Well, congrats on catching that handful of trout, but you would not have made your 35 trout guarantee that day

I bet those kids have fished before though, some of these folks can't throw a rod and reel. Also, you get to choose the days you fish. Some clients are coming down fishing regardless of rain, cold fronts, wind, whatever, you haven't a clue. What if client is fishing for first time ever and you start catching a few trout, one hangs a redfish and it pulls like hell, much better than a trout, then clients decide they would rather catch reds because the fight of a school trout lets all admit isn't very rewarding if you are there just to feel the pull of a fish! We all know how well you do on redfish when it comes down to it!

Them boys did not care what a limit was....we got into a school of lady fish and they did not even want to leave...we caught lady for 3 hours.....and they had more fun doing that than fishing trout....

We could of had our 60 trout if we would of stayed on the lake but we had showers coming in and out all day so they go wore down by 1pm....

Exactly what some clients want, they just want to catch fish period. If they want live bait, you better bring it, they are always right











where will the new baitwell go on the Haynie?
