Posts: 1060 Location: Palm Coast, FL | I had the priviledge of taking out 2 brothers and their father a week ago. They called me up stating that their mother/wife had passed away and while everyone was here in Indiana they wanted to go fishing. We boated 2 fish that day with a 42" on a figure 8 and one of the brothers catching the fish below in the picture. Here is the email that they sent me...one of the highlights of my guiding: Vince, I would like to thank you for taking us on a wonderful adventure! It was what we needed after our mom passed away. This was one of my "Bucket List" items that I thought would never happen! We saw more Muskie than I have ever seen in my life and I have been fishing for over 35 years. This was a dream come true! If I did not live in California I would be there every weekend with you! My mothers wish was for me to catch a Muskie just like her father did. You made this wish come true and we will be forever grateful for that! Who would have thought I would catch a 49 1/4 inch Muskie in Indiana! You are a true pro when it comes to Muskie my friend! Good luck and keep fishing! The Stringfield Family Attachments ---------------- 49.25-2 res.jpg (185KB - 163 downloads) | ||

For all of the fishless days, cold, crappy, windy days, and sunny glass calm days, the musky gods throw us a bone once in a while and it makes someones day. Very cool story and excellent email from your client. Way to go daddio!!!! | ||

Vince did his job, but I am sure Mom was with the Stringfield family the whole time. | |||

Posts: 994 Location: Minnesota: where it's tough to be a sportsfan! | You could not ask for a better outcome. There are times when guiding can become routine customers in and customers out. But knowing what the event can mean can put a better perspective on it. When I guided full time, I would not have done it all for the money it brought. But when it came to the friends and memories...priceless! Congrats on a great job done Vince. | ||
