    Default New Guide Business Coming Soon......me


    Planning ahead here. I turned im my resignation and will be retiring October next year. I gotta train some sucker to take my place. (Takes bout 6 months to train a newbie.) I gotta have something to do when I retire. This oughta be fun. You pick and choose what ya want to do.

    My Guide business is not gonna be the everyday Fish Guide Business. I am gonna provied a Show and Tell Service. Yep. I gonna show people around the lake and show 'em where the fishes oughta be at any certain time of the year and tell 'em what want work and what not to do. Also will provide you with: Sonar lessons, GPS lessons, Waypoint Management via computer lessons, Boat and Trailer wiring lessons, Underwater Videoing and Recording lessons and maybe some Computer lessons. Might even throw in a little fishing if you want or have the time. Heck, I might even fix your broke computer if you bring it along with you. If I left anything out, call.

    What other Guide can do all this stuff?

    Qualifications: I got 'em. Memphis State my Alma Matre

    Worked with: NASA, ITT, ATT, Raytheon (Raymarine), Boeing, Teaching

    Fished this area for over 60 years. I know a lot of stuff.....

    Bookings available January 12, 2008. Booking via Internet on my webpage (when I get it ready).

    Loweboaters even welcome to come. Oh, show ya how to build and edit web pages too...if ya want to learn..

    Hey Tom, how much for a full day of just fishing?
    I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just going to ask them where they're goin' and hook up with them later.

    Default Guiding...

    I have thought about doing the something similiar to what you are planning. The only difference (my location) is that I would probably do a seasonal thing. Crappies fall, winter, spring AND drifting for catfish in the summer. I tell people of some of our adventures and they find it hard to believe. Anyway, I wish you the best of luck and keep us posted!!

    regards,

    Good for you and with all the things you are offering there should not be a lot of time on your hands with nothing to do.

    Good Luck!
