"Doug,

I really enjoyed meeting and getting to know you. i had a great time fishing. Where else could I catch walleye, nothern pike and smallmouth on the same day? The walleye fillets made it to Ohio Ok and my wife, daughter and I enjoyed them for dinner on Sunday."      Ken B.

"Doug, what a fantastic time we had on Saturday! We talked about our wonderful experience all the way home today. You were right, the white bass was incredible! Could not tell the difference between it and the walleye for taste. Had a memorable weekend & can't wait to do it again next year! Thank you for all of the knowlege you shared with us. Had a blast!!!"       Tammy C.
