Default Yesterday........(PIC)

I had the pleasure of fishing Rock Bottom and his neighbor yesterday. Josh had never caught a steelhead before. It was meant to be for him yesterday as the look on his face surely explains. I really cannot put into words, what seeing a first timer with a chrome bullet on the end of the line, means to me. I get so much more satisfaction now out of sharing the experience with those who haven't had it yet. I am always looking forward to the next opportunity to get someone int thier first. Thanks again for great company guys.You guys were awesome to fish with.......... [img]graemlins/applause.gif[/img]

John, as always a great trip, by far our best so far. I want to thank you greatly for showing Josh such a good day. I can honestly tell you that you have done something bad to this poor guy.(I apologized to his wife for you :grin: ). He called me at work today to tell me he cant stop thinking about all of those slam downs.(he said he couldnt sleep last night either, visions of steelhead dancing in his head ). You reminded me of bill dance yesterday with all those bass fishin techniques you were pullin out of the box [img]graemlins/idea.gif[/img] . Nice work buddy you were on fire. Thanks again and lets do it again soon.


Dave

Nice fish John. I need to get out for some silver instead of bottom feeders. I am looking forward to those natives this year.

I wondered who bit the dust today. That one was headed for the "A" list and then onto the wall of fame in a hurry. Sorry to hear about your loss.

John,
From what I've read from others and the things you've posted, you sure are a class act. I've seen more open seat offers from you than anyone else. You've also offered some great advice many others have benefitted from.
Keep up your courtesty! It sure is a rarity these days.

John is awesome at pulling plugs no doubt but dont short change him he is pretty darn good at a few other techniques as well. He put on a float and jig clinic yesterday and also got one on a spoon which is one of the harder techniques to master. This guy is a lot more than just a plug show.
