Guides Like He Wants You to Come Back
I have fished with Guides throughout North and Central America. One of the hazards in hiring a fishing guide in a location popular with tourists is that many guides in these circumstances seem to assume that because you have traveled from far away to fish, you are not likely to become a return customer. In these situations, the guide may not go the extra mile in creating a fishing experience. Rick Kennedy doesn't run that kind of operation. The boat and the equipment are top quality. Visiting Tahoe in Winter, the heater was a great touch. As any experienced fisherman knows, no one can control fish (that's why we call it fishing and not catching). The day we fished, the bite was on the slow side. But Rick Kennedy was tireless in our pursuit of fish, continually moving and changing tactics until we had success. What was even more impressive, he never watched the clock - in fact I called it quits with Rick offering to keep fishing!
