Very cool story!! And superb catch!

It's situations like this that should be on the news headlines, not all that dismal, negative, and depressing crap I'm forced to read/listen to....


Rob and Kevin, you guy's have restored my faith in humanity

By far the best thing I've read on BWE. You showed an amazingly noble act of kindness and it paid off. You'll have nothing but good ju-ju from now on.

To both of you on your pay it forwards. In this day and age, it is hard to get even an acknowledgement from most of the public, let alone any amount of their "valuable" time or effort.

Awwwwesome read! Man that day brought back terrifying memories of my truck sitting in sinking sand. I was on the phone with AAA when Rob came over! Unbelievable how lucky I am. It clearly was a sign. You were destined for that fish! There is no mistaking it. Congrats Rob, you can pull me out of the sand anytime!

We can all make the world a better place to kayak in, one fish at a time!

I keep hearing about the same guides but who's better?

I mean whos gonna catch me a big one?

And who charges more?
Well, since you asked......

They both satisfy, let me tell you. I have been with both of them, and seen both of them without their waders on, but do not let that turn you off. I am a DDF fisherman who has pulled on my fair share of tail.
I guess that it really comes down to personal preference.
The Kid is more affordable and not nearly as worn in, but JP is experienced and has a scathing tongue if you do not do exactly what he says, a real bonus for some.
The Kid has an olive complexion and a youthful vibrance, JP prefers collared shirts and plenty of creamy white sunscreen slathered on his face.
Personal preference aside, either guide will give you something big to pull on, more than you could hope for.

Tight lines and bent rods gentle wanderer.


On a serious note, whoever created this is absolutely brilliant. Well done.

I was wondering what happened to you, Rob. While I'm taking a little break, you're out catching fish.

Congrats on your first YT! And thanks for sharing the good vibes. And good on Kevin, too.

I guess I should stop being such and a-hole. I might catch more fish.

See you on the water.

Steve

Hey there everybody!
Thanks much for the props on the fish, the story, and the gesture on the sand.
This is truly a great community, all here in the name of fun and sport.
Call it Karma, paying it forward, makin' Mama proud, or whatever, I've always been a big believer in doing the right thing and that what goes around does.
See y'all on the water.
RobFish
