Ron,
Thanks so much for the fun fishing experience. I know you were
as (or
more so) disappointed about the fish not biting, but you certainly
went
all out trying to find some.
We really enjoyed our Lake Okeechobee, Air Boat, and Red Dog
experience. Thanks again for being a wonderful guide.

Hi Cap'n
Ron,
Just wanted
to say thanks for the fishing experience. The weather sucked
but Dave and I still had a swell time fishin' with Cap'n Ken.
He's a good
ol' boy and we were lucky to have a guide so full of "Bullshit".
Please tell him thanks again and we will try to catch more MudFish
next
time, as we will fish only with him..... provided he gets his
aerator fixed.
Thanks again. Regardless of the weather, we endured and so did
Ken. He is
alot like Dave and I when it comes to fishin'. Hot, cold, wind,
rain, or
shine. He's a trooper and a "KEEPER". We look forward
to another fishing
trip in the near future. Let me know if you got any good specials
coming up
for guys from Virginia who love to fish and kinda know how.
