Florida Bass Fishing Trip
Florida bass fishing
couple Karen and 
Kenny
Myers (Maryville, TN - caught 33 Florida bass up to 5 1/2 lbs. during 2 1/2 days (Nov. 16 -
18, 1998) of wild shiner fishing with Cap’n Ron. Karen caught
the 5 1/2 lb’er and a mud fish that was at least 10 lbs.
In fact Karen caught just about all the Florida bass put in the
boat. She also told everybody around town that Ken got skunked!
For some reason Ken, who had numerous bass hits just could not
hook them. He did manage to bird nest his reel which requirer
bringing in a bass he had on his line by hand. On the other hand
Karen had no trouble hooking and landing any fish that hit her
shiner. Of course Ken would not take any advise from Karen on
how to set the hook. After such a whipp’n I hope Karen will
be taken on the next fishing trip.

Here's
the picture you requested in response to your e-mail below. I understand from what Captain John
told me that the best catch of the day was your scalp! I was assured
that on your next trip a construction helmet will be provided
by Captain (scalper) John. In any event hope to see you and Chris
the redhead soon again.
Here's
a e-mail testimonial I received from the above party:

Subject: our great trip, (hooked scalp and all)
I keep looking
for the 4 1/2 and 5 lb. fish that Chris and I caught. John has
the pic. We did have a great time. You will have to ask John about
the hooked
scalp. We should see you again in the very near future. Thanks
for the
great memories, the 4 1/2 lb'er was the largest bass that my wife,
Chris, the
redhead, has ever caught.
See you in Lakeport. Bill and Chris

I forgot to recommend a big can of beans! This is really
just what you and Joann needed to top off your pork chop meal.
In any event I had a good time fishing and reminiscing about New
York and the old times. Hope to see both of you soon again. PS:
maybe I will be able to stumble into some fish on your return
trip!
Thanks for
an enjoyable time.

Florida Bass Fishing Trip
Florida bass fishing
angler Tracy caught 16
bass up to 4 1/2 lbs. using shiners during 2 half days
(Aug. 8 & 9, 1998) of 
fishing on Lake Okeechobee with Captain Ron.
All the bass which were released were caught in the Monkey Box
area of Okeechobee. The fish during the first session of fishing
put a show on for us buy playfully blasting the wild shiners out
of the water. These tactics which are a sight to see have a way
of keeping you on your toes. During the second session of fishing
the bass were more aggressive without the topwater action that
is delightful to watch. Tracy who I must say is an exceptional good lady bass fishing
angler and a Arlinton
Texas school counselor wanted me to say hello to all of her school
students in this report. Well here's a big
"HELLO"
from a very special counselor who's thinking of all her students
even during her vacation.

Bass Fishing couple Bob & Joyce
This Florida bass
fishing senior citizen couple Bob and Joyce Napier
caught about 30 bass up to 5 lbs. during 3 days (Jan. 25-27, 1998) of cold
weather fishing on Lake Okeechobee. Joyce caught and released
the 5 lb'er which is in fact considered a trophy bass in Indiana.
This couple who fished with wild shiners during their stay with
us also released all the fish they landed. Joyce somehow managed
to out fish her husband Bob during each day of fishing. The smile
on Joyce's face holding that 5 lb'er is beyond words. Hope to
see you guys someday again - real soon.

Here's that
5 lb. Florida bass you caught out of the 45 + Florida bass you
and Dottie caught using shiners during 3 days (Jan. 20 - 22, 1998)
of Florida bass fishing on Lake Okeechobee with Ron's Guide Service.
We will try and double that figure on your next trip.

Florida
Bass Fishing couple Larry & Janet
I'm sure you
will never forget that Florida trophy bass you hooked on your
"light tackle" and lost when it broke your line. Or
your amazement when Janet hooked and landed a 7
1/2 lb'er -- the very same fish with "your hook
and line hanging out of it's mouth". Or when Janet also landed
a 6 1/2 lb'er and most of the
40 Florida bass caught
in 2 days (April 10 & 11, 1998) of wild shiner fishing.

JUST FOR
YOU: Whoever you
are!
Have
no name or other information on this guy?
Found this old (1986)
amusing picture of a guy who Florida bass fished with me for 5
days (Sept. 21 - 25, 1986). There was no name or other information
on the picture other than that 236 bass up to 5 lbs. were caught
on worm and topwater lures! This guy's head for some reason looks
longer than that 5 lb'er he's holding....
