Some nice strings!! Way to go Carlos!!
When I bought my new Blue Wave last March I decided to keep my old one and let Carlos Duggan, a long-time friend, use it for guiding. He'd been doing some guding out of an older, smaller boat but really needed something bigger and more stable.
I was doing two-trips a day or full-day trips nearly every day for weeks on end during the spring and fall and wanted to cut back some. I was also giving away a lot of trips that I couldn't take because I was booked up, which wasn't very smart.
Well, it's been a "Win-Win" situation so far. Carlos has been showing folks a great time, putting them on plenty of quality fish and most importantly making them all want to come back to fish with him again. And, he's making me money!
Carlos turned 70 last spring and I keep telling him he can take off whenever he wants but he never wants to so I keep booking trips for him. He's done over 80 trips since the first of March.
Here are a few of his stringers:

He's like the Energizer Bunny - just keeps going and going and going!
Some nice strings!! Way to go Carlos!!
Your the man Carlos. I hope I'm still gettin them like you are when I'm your age. You two are a great team.
Good things come to those who bait.
nice fish, must be nice to get to fish so much, and to get paid for it.
Jerry, I'll bet Carlos kept his little boat.. I really enjoyed meeting him and fishing next to him when Texas Jimmy & I were down a couple of years ago..He is one nice man..
Glad to see you doing well and was wondering if anyone else had caught a bucket crappie bigger than Jimmy's...:D:D

You are a good man Jerry.
