Ok, when I was younger I wanted to be a guide. Now that I am older, Holy Smokes, I do not how I could do it.
First of all several years ago when I started taking my wife and son and his friends and introduced them to fishing it was a chore. Now my son is off to college and fish with friends, two of three days of fishing kicks me in the rear.
For instance, Friday, I waded, had a GREAT time!! I waded with a couple of friends pretty much from 6:45 to 12 and then drifted until 2. After that, I was exhausted
Today, I drifted from 630 till 2 and am soar. I plan on fishing Tuesday, but to tell you the truth , if I was a great fisherman and could be a guide and fished all the time, it is work!!!
I am 51 and could be in better shape, but it is not a given, getting the boat ready, keeping the boat clean after the day of fishing, keeping up with the equipment, launching, landing, cleaning the fish, cleaning up back lashes, putting up with whining. You guides earn your money. Maybe if I if it was everyday, I could hack it, but I’m tired!
BTW, today, we caught some of the BIGGEST croaker I was ever seen (along with some trout and red fish). The croakers were big enough to fillet, which we did, I fired them up and made fish tacos. Bingo what a great dinner!
