 ;D  Kelly with a "Y" not an "I"  ;D  Who woulda known?  ASS_U_ME. 

If it be known, I assumed the same.  I guess we're getting to used to the girls entering our traditional domain.  Not that there's anything wrong with that :)

Sorry Kelly with a "Y".

Good luck at the resort(s).

Guys, $500 tips is nothing... its still below average.  And let me get it stright, you don't have to get a big fish to get a big tip...  Sometimes is totally opposite, like my buddy, guilded a guy with a nice 71lb chinook and the guy only tipped him $200!!! what is that all about. And sometimes fishing is slow, you can only get them few fish here and there, but they ended up giving you a big big tips ( i mean really big)  that you actually feel guilty to recieve it.  From my experiences, you just have to be yourslef, make sure they feel comfortable fishing with you and the rest, just go with the flow.   Sometimes, fishing do get really boring up at Langara. When the coho and chinook are in thick. Like myself i run 4 rods on the boat,  if you hit a school of fish, you will be running around baiting hooks, dropping line, landing fish all day long. i have days that i go though one full case of herrings, thats 32 packs. And i have guest asked me to go fish some where, that fishing will slow down a bit, so that they can take a break.  Yes, i might sound really cocky now, but if you have a chance to fish there when the fish are in. prepare a few days of hard work.    goodluck fishing

Norm, there is no cash tips anymore like before. Most of the guest use their credit card instead and we usually claim it on our holiday/ season end at the Vancouver office.  As for your buddy's fish.. he most likely caught me at the wrong time...

I hope the guides claim their gratuities on their income tax return. I know an auditor with Revenue Canada. I'll make sure he audits Marco's return.

I know of guys who got $100 for getting a 6-pack of beer, another $100 for a cooler of ice, and another $100 for a final 6-pack...scary stuff.

I just got an envalope every few weeks with a few hundred in it. You can always tell who are the guys who just came back from a fly out back to vancouver (new clothes and everything).

Hey Marco, welcome home, I spoke to you the other day, sounds like a good season. I've had days similar to the one you described. My favourite "quote" would have to be: "The fishing has really slowed down, we haven't had a hit for 30 seconds !!!". We could not feel our arms after that day of fishing !!!
