Lance,
I was talking with my fishing buddy today about the trip we took in June with you, and realized that I never sat down and wrote a customer comment. I apologize, as we were both very satisfied with the trip. I would strongly recommend your services to anyone looking for a guide on fork. After fishing the whole day Saturday, we had landed some decent fish, several in the five pound range, but had boated nothing big (I lost one about 8 pounds at the boat). Both of us were already happy with the result, as it was a horrible day for fishing with a hot sun, few clouds, and high winds. However, Lance chose to stay out until almost dark trying to put us on the fish we went to fork after. Finally at a little after six, Eric hooked into a huge bass that Lance helped land. The picture is on the page, and is the one with the two guys with backwards hats and sunglasses. This fish truly made the trip perfect, and we are appreciative for the extra effort and time spent by Lance to make sure that we were more than pleased with the result. We look forward to fishing with you again in the spring.
Good Fishing,
Calvin Balch
Lance,
I wanted to express our appreciation to you for the fishing trip on Wednesday, June 9, 2004. Hunter (or Catfish Hunter) and I had a wonderful time and enjoyed the fellowship. As you learned, my 15 year old nephew is a huge catfish fisherman and after his experience bass fishing he might be making a change. It's amazing how much Hunter learned from you and he talked about it on the way home to Greenville. I hope you learned some techniques he shared with you concerning catching catfish. I would have to say Hunter has some interesting techniques. Hunter has a better understanding of the management program Lake Fork has in place, and he can appreciate it more having caught some big bass. You have broaden his skills on the different baits and techniques to use to produce a catch.
We realize the fishing conditions was not ideal, but your experience, knowledge and determination to satisfy us enable us to have a great time and achieve outstanding results. Too many times I've been with a guide and they would give-up or make-up an excuse to quit because the conditions were not favorable. On Wednesday, that was the only day I had to spend with "Catfish Hunter" and we had great time. He's still talking about that double-burger he had for lunch. It's times like this that Hunter and I will always remember. The 10 hour trip seemed like a few hours. Thanks for all the tips and patience.
I found out that if I'm going to keep-up with Hunter, I'll need to practice a little on my casting.
Finally, I now have that trophy picture to put in my game room.
Have a great day and god bless you and your family.
