Crappie


The following are simply unsolicited Emails I've received from some of my happy customers.
I'm a lucky man to have such a great job!





Mark, 

We had a great time and you really made the whole day very special and enjoyable.  I will call you again and get the boys out for more.  They both had a ball, as did my Dad!  He said it was the best guided trip he has ever been on.  I have been telling everyone I meet about the trip.

Thank you!
Philip
 
 

 
Mark..........
 
I want you to know how much you contributed to a very special time for me and my two grandsons. We have been on a few guided fishing excursions in the past, but both boys were quick to say that the way you interacted with them, your help and assistance without making them feel inadequate, and of course getting us on a lot of good fish made your trip the very best. I echo their sentiments. It was a great experience catching almost 100 fish, counting the ones released, in 2 1/2 to 3 hours. There is a big difference in fishing and catching. We've experienced both, and you showed us how much more fun the latter can be. 
 
As good as the catching was, it would not have been as enjoyable had it not been for you. Thanks for a wondeful time. We will be back.

Hello Mark:
 
Thanks for a terrific fishing experience.  Donna had never seen the sandies breaking nor fished a boil and I had never caught a hybrid before.  So you provided several first times in one trip.  We appreciated your effort in making this an unforgettable trip and we have the pictures to prove it.    I’ve already sent photos of our catch and your web address to several family members and friends.  I’m absolutely positive that the two hybrids that got away were at least 15 pounds each.  We really had a great time and plan to see you in October.

 Best regards,

Oscar  & Donna  


Mark,

Thanks again for providing us with such a great trip. We all had a great time. All my pastors could talk about was catching fish 2 at a time, and Bill is trying to figure out how to get his boys to give him a fishing trip for his birthday.

Once again thanks for being such a great guide, and fishing buddy. Hope to do it again sometime.

 May God Bless,
 Jerald


Hello Mark, I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed the trip last Sunday.

I was truly pleased with the service that you provide and must say that it was the best guided fishing trip that I have been on.

That was the first time that I felt like the guide's goal was for me to relax and have a good time. All the other times that I have been it was felt that the guide's goal was to see how fast we could catch our limit so that he could put us back on the dock and go home. I liked the fact that you fished right along with us.

You are a 1st Rate Guide and proved to me that you really do love to fish. I look forward to fishing with you again.

Thank You, Bryan



Mark,

I guess that today was the day that, for years, you have hoped for - that just once you will hit everything just right.  We certainly caught the stars in perfect alignment today.  WOW!   I think that the first cast produced a huge Hybrid for all of us and it just kept getting better!  Just look at the pictures.  Unbelievable.

We really appreciate your hospitality and your expertise in making this day, April 3, 2006 almost impossible to beat.  Great company, great weather, great fishing, and all home safely.

Mark,


 We had a great time this morning, Jordan is still talking about it.  Got the pictures just fine and they turned out awesome (nice camera). 

 You were fantastic and the best guide we've had in the 3 years we have used one.  Thanks again for everything especially the special time I got to have with my son.  We just got through eatin' a bunch a little while ago!  See ya next time.

John



Mark,
          Thank you for the good time. Your Hard work put us on the Hot spots every time. On a scale 1-10,  I rate it a 10.
We are looking forward to booking another trip with you soon.

Mark,

Just wanted to say how much fun we had fishing with you on Aug 4th.  I really appreciated you searching for the Sand Bass after we limited out on Hybrids  (I love the top water action) and taking time to snap several pictures and emailing them.  

You were great working with William (7yrs) and helping him.  I know young kids can frustrating some times on a fishing trip.

Several years ago Dad went to Texoma with another guide.  He was in a rush to catch a limit of Hybrids and go home.  They were only out a couple of hours.

William had a great time.  I usually like fishing all day long and was not sure about quitting at before noon.  But it was the perfect amount of time for William and I did not go home totally exhausted and sun burned.  So my wife was happy about that.  She always asks why I can’t go fishing for only an hour or two instead of my all day trips.

Next time we are back in the TX area we will be out again with you.

I know Mom and Dad are talking about taking a crappie trip some time also.

Thanks for the GREAT fishing trip

Will
 




 Mark:

 Thanks so much for the pictures.  And for a really fun day.  This was everything I had hoped for as a good introduction for Drew--good weather, a
bit of fun going fast in the boat, and lots of--lots of--catchin'!!  He was so excited about it.

I really appreciated the time you took to work with him, too.  We all got to witness the birth of an angler today, and that's in large part because of
you.

Deb had a great time, too.  I am pushing her to get some of her girl buds together and come back, soon.  Being on the water was very good mental
therapy
for her.

We'll be back.  Had some fish for dinner tonight and it was great.  Nothing better than fresh fish, that you catch that day.

I have some friends that I'm going to tell about the secret of Richland-Chambers and your service.

Many, many thanks again for a terrific day.    TOM




Mark:

Thanks so very much for a Great Trip!  It made lots of good memories for all of us, especially for Sharon's Mother's Day.

Thanks Again, and we're looking forward to doing it again, and I am sure Roy will have some folks at his workplace that would enjoy a trip too.

Truman & Sharon


 
Mark,

It was a great day and I think anyone who has spent much time freshwater fishing in Texas would admire your ability to find the fish and have everyone in the boat catch their limit by 11:00am!  That alone speaks volumes for your guiding skills and then considering that you produced results like this in August is especially impressive.  My boys had a great time and they are already putting together some pretty good stories about the trip.

We will certainly recommend you to our family and friends and we have every confidence that anyone who signs on for a trip with you will have a high quality fishing experience.  This is the first guided trip we've been on and I'm thankful that your web site led us to setting up a day at Richland Chambers with you.

Thanks again for providing a first class fishing trip and we hope to schedule another one with you in the future,

-Rick
  


 
Mark,
 
Thank you for a great day fishing, and a wonderful opportunity for the boys to be together (Poppy, Daddy, Son & Captain) on the lake. 
Thank you for your patience and understanding of what it's like to teach/take a 5-1/2 year old fishing.  Caleb did great today (fish box boy) and my father-in-law, - - and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
 
We would love to go fishing with you again, and may you have many tight lines.
 
I will be glad to recommend you when to all my friends, and colleges.  I hope (and Caleb has already prayed for you) that your thumb gets well soon.
 
Thanks again and God Bless
Darren
 


 Mark,
 
We had a blast.  The pictures are great and the kids love seeing them on your website.  The girls have never been in to fish like that before, Jesse reeled in his first fish ever, and Clarissa caught more in a few hours than she has her whole life.
 

Thanks again, and we'll be doing it again, for sure!
 
Chad



Mark,
 
Thank you for making this Mother's Day (2008) one I will never forget.  We had a wonderful time!!  The pictures are awesome.  Thank you for everything....(including helping us get the door unlocked when we locked the keys in the car:)

Paula



 
Mark:

It was a GREAT day for the family; we appreciate the nice trip (good
fishing) and really enjoyed meeting you!

Take care and we will see you soon!

Thanks,
  
John


       
Thanks for everything, Mark.  We did have a great time, and I recovered good by that evening.  Then had a mess of fried fish…and a freezer full!

Yea just what we wanted,
Dolores


Mark -
Thanks for the pictures and thanks again for the great time out on the water. My dad and I have never caught sand bass and hybrids like that before, and we were happy to get into them in such a hurry. We'll likely be back in the fall to go after some Crappie with you.

Thanks,
Michael
  


Thanks Mark.  Had a great time.
If anyone ever is 'on the fence' about hiring you as a guide, send them my way.  It was a fantastic trip.

Rocky


Mark,

My dad and son went on a fishing trip with you last Friday, Gary and Teddy.  They had an incredible time with you. Teddy was sooo excited when he got home to tell us all about his adventure with you.  His conversation was filled with lots of exclamation points.  Thank you for such a memorable trip for them.  You helped create life long memories for them both.  My dad said you could send some pics.  We would love that. 

Thank you again!!
Sheri


Hey Mark!

First let me thank you for the great fishing trip. The kids had a whale of a time and I knew you would put us on the fish despite trying conditions.

I really admire your ability! Honest!

Rod 


Hey There Mark:

We three anglers could never, ever be more pleased than we are with your excellent guide service, Mark and once again we wish to thank you for giving us your best effort at making our fishing trip an unforgettable event and one that will remain with us forever in our good-times memory banks.  I believe you will be seeing more of we three Men of Granbury.

Chou for now, Mr. Parker.....

Shorty


Hi Mark,

Thanks again for giving Andrew and I a great time together. He is a great son and you gave us both a fantastic memory to talk about in those times a
Dad and Son tell off on each other.

I wish you the best always; you are a good person and fun to fish with to boot.

Tight Lines Always,
Kevin & Andrew



Hey Mark,

Thanks for a great Crappie trip. My son and I had a blast!!

I was wondering if you could add me to the email distribution list

so I can get copies of the current fishing report and pictures.

Thank again for everything (great trip),

David


 

Hi Mark,

It's Lloyd here. You know the fishing brothers expo last Sunday.

Thanks for making our trip really great. I told everyone at work how

successful it was and that we used you as the guide. Look forward to some more

quality time in your boat again in the future.

Thanks,

Lloyd

 


Mark,

  Just wanted to say thanks for another great day of fishing at Richland Chambers yesterday. My brother and I willl have a good memory for a long time and I think we have him hooked again on fishing. Enjoyed the ride in your new boat and again I learned more from your electronics expertise. Hope to fish with you again soon.

Thanks, Mark.
 

Hey Mark

We had a great time and really enjoyed the trip ~ although rather short and limited on my part, But, not a better way to get away from work and enjoy some needed fishing time and time to visit my brother.  He mentioned several times just how much he enjoyed & appreciated the trip.  Made me feel good that it was a doable & successful adventure.

Your pictures arrived just fine on this end and they were a hoot to see. Thanks for taking the time to check up on them.

Take care, and again, thanks for all the help and the positive experience.

DDLG


Mark,
 
Juanita and I had a great time last weekend.
We enjoyed catching our limits on the Sand Bass.
Also, we learned a lot from you about how to fish for Sand Bass.

You are truly a Great Fisherman!
 
Thank you,
Johnny 


Mark -  
THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE EXPERIENCE!!!  The pictures are great and so was the fishing.  We truly enjoyed it and are checking our calendars for next time.  We will definately call you to get hooked up.
 
Thanks again!
 
Matt



Thanks Mark. We really enjoyed the day! The kids keep asking when we're fishing again.

Take care, 

Katie


Mark,

We really enjoyed the day.  My father-in-law had an absolutely great time.

We will call you next time!!

Matt


Yeah we all had a great time and we'll do it again. Drop me a line from

time to time on how good the fishing is getting. I'd like to catch some more

of those barn door crappie.  I know David and I are up for some striper

fishing this fall.

Look forward to hearing from you. - - -- AL;-)


Have to hand it to you Mark. What a great adventure for our first guided fishing trip. I’ll have to send the pictures to Jose.

Thanks again.

Alex



Mark,

The boys and I had an awesome time fishing with you today!  What a great day!

Take care!

Tim


Mark,

Thanks for the good time and the pictures.  We had a great time and cooked up some of the fish on Saturday night while camping at Fairfield.  Does not
get any better than that.

We loved the experience and will definitely be back.

Thanks,

Gregg
