I wonder how long he will continue to pay lodging, fuel, food, travel time, and guide fees to come down here for 10 trout!
May really be the death of the guide business on the horizon. Why is it our government agencies continue to kill small businesses? And everything I am seeing is they are doing it to slow down the poeple from Texas coming here to fish. ***? |

I understand what you're saying. And I agree. But I feel like people will still pay regardless. You can't do any better or keep any more fish anywhere along the coast if I'm not mistaken? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

In my opinion, I think guides will like it. When a sport says "we limited out " goes a lot farther than saying "we only caught 14". Plus on the other hand - on them tough days the guides will not have to fish as hard for them. It's a win-win for guides and a loss for recreational folks. Just to clarify, I am not for the reduction of daily limits.

I guide because I enjoy fishing staying out late is part of it and no way a person who hires me will wear me out on the water Some days I'm the 1st boat gone and last boat in , and lots of times we have a limit of trout by 10am but they want to fish One guide outfit might like having 10 trout limit because it's not a passion it's a job and like a routine everyday with same results I'm not like that and a lot of the guides on talk to every day are not. Jared Adams is one like me who will fish till when ever also , there has been days he worked all night and fish all next day with zero sleep Just last month I guided till 2 and Jared around same time then about 6 we ran into each other again on the lake scouting for next day I wish limit was 25 per person No true guide wants to have a 10 trout limit NEVER unless your working for someone and it's not your clients

I just shake my head when people say its ok and not a bad thing when you cant catch enough fish to eat and put anything in the freezer because its about being a "sportsman".
if I have to settle for 5 or 10 trout then its time to sell the boat and take up golf because im not spending $100 per trip to go catch 2lbs of fillets in a $15,000 flatboat much less those expensive rigs most people have. it is near break even cost wise now for the table fair you get out of it. yes I like to catch fish for catching fish but I need to get a good portion of my money back in groceries going in the freezer or I just flat out cant afford it and 60% or fishermen are just like me. I sure as hell would never pay for a charter to fish under the limits they are proposing |

Shhh, you're talking reasonably. Hurts some peoples' feelings...

I guess when you pride yourself on catching a box full of dink trout, it's easy to get your feelings hurt.

Or when you like eating trout and only get a hand full of days to fish a year it's nice to have a small stock pile in the freezer. Not saying it's all about limiting out per say but actually making it worth your time and effort. Plus as a sportsman I pride my self as not being a game hog, so that makes up for dink trout

It's not the guides that pride themselves in those boxes of dinks......its the sports. The guides I have met personally from here would much rather target hawgs, but your average charter customer doesn't have the patience or skill required to chase bigger fish. There's no reason to be rude, especially if you don't know some of these guys. I have seen several posts from guides here that read something like....woo hoo got a customer today that's not worried about limits....just lookin for big girls to CPR today!

Ask the guides for snapper fishing. Back in the early 90's, it was 7, then 5, now two. When you pay $1500 for up to 6 people to catch 2 fish each. $125 per fish. That is if you get six people. Yeah, the sport of it is worth the cost to me, but I can find other fun stuff to do at $125 per time. It makes guide services hard to sell the consumer. It also makes taking my own boat even harder to justify dragging to the water and spending $100+ per trip. It is over regulated.

First of all it is about being a "Sportsman". If you expect to get your money back for fishing then be a guide. Fishing is a hobby to most people. Yea it is nice to boat a box full of fish but most people dont do that every trip they just like getting out on the water to pass a good time with family and friends. Also you will hate golf too because it gives nothing in return either.
Unless u got groupies like tiger |
