book up till after father day

I didn't know you were a Guide? Good for You.

Sunup until 3-4 PM for $125 taking 5-6 people. I'm just asking if this is correct? If so that's the best deal going anywhere.

Man I looked the mileage up from coppercove to limestone that's around 230 miles,Gas would cost me around 50& just for truck boat gas 30$ bait and tackle man what a deal.

first my price is 175-250. and i am offering a fathesday special more the once i have had kids call me up to book a tip for they father. I figure if i am going to be gut there what id the difference in on person or 5 people. I cover expansis Pay my kids as deck hands .put enough money away to take VETs out fishing Iike i have planed for n suday with 4 guys. it take me about 145min pulling a 21ft boat to get there and it is less then a tank of gages. i would not do it if i was losing money . I dont have to charge hight prices I own my boat out right i paid 6000 for it. my insurance is not that high and the license was cheap. this is just a way for me to give back to those who were less fortunate Then i was it putting my self in a little pain puts a silly one son ones face or when a shut in asks if he can go gain soon it makes it work ti to me. and my target audience has been military out on ft hood and they dont have a lot to spend in the first place. but you have to remember i dont do this to make a living I make more in retirements from the military I busted my [censored] for 14yr so you didn't have to. and if i charge just ecnought to cover my expenses and have money to cover taking guys out on a trip them i am more then happy. I do what i do out of the kind kind ness of heart. I dont just talk about takin someone fishing once a year who is a vet and charge them I dont care if the were in WWII, Korea Kosovo name Iraq or Aftganistan or they are retired. if they call me and i have th money I take them. I do what i do because fishing believe or not helps with PTDS and anxiety it help better then anything a doctor will ever give you. I make nothin off of this other then then knowing i put a smile an someones face who people has not smile on a vets face who and not had a lt to smilie about. my payment is the fact they had a good time and a thank you. and if they open up i list I have been through it all from being wounded to loosing soldiers. 1 i have not been guiding long enough to charge 400 per trip and i am not nocking you guys who are able to good for you. but i personly would not charg that much just for the reson I look in to guided trop from me an my daily and it was out rages it wold have cualst me a half months pay and dont get me started on the guyed who tried to rip me off. I think fishing should be affordable. I teach them the down and side midge units were to start looking for cats with out baiting holes and that chemdawgs cheese bait will keep you busy out last trip we had a 14 6lb and a hole bunch 5lbs or better and a bunch of leaders bork in seat of trying to knock me for my prices why not ask why i am only chaging that for to begin with . it is just a special for fathers day thats it. and that is my price for military police firmen and first responders. they dont get enough thanks for the job they do. and this way they can afford to take there family on a trip and when waco opens up i will be on wack the fish are bigger but not nearly as many reguarlses o the emails and texmessan i get i am gone to contuew to do my own thing and next week my mother onlaw in going to help me make the bait so i might me able to keep up i am still getting i cals for order and gallon orders

the gudie on here99% of you have no worries from me most of the custer base i take are military and they can to afraid a 4-500$ trip is just not in there budget. i pass out cards and have post up on base the soldiers is my main customer i dont turn anyone one away guys gall me all the time they are hating to go out but it just them selfs i keep a list of sinly guys and i pass on there information. and the disabled guys defiantly cant for to go out with you guys they are they ones i do this from i cant do much with my back and 4 piched nerves plus the rods in there and the content pain i am in but i can locate channels and that is all we go after. i dont know why every time i do something cheap for people it sees to tun in to an issue what diffemce if i drce 200mine or 300 mins its on me the reason i have to drive so far right now is that ll the lake here are lcloosed do do wanter levels being to high

God bless you chemdawg! You do YOUR thing and don't worry about what anyone else thinks. It's an honorable thing you are doing. As a first responder in Kansas, I know well the fact that $$$ is tight and I would appreciate a good trip that was affordable like you are offering. Keep up the good work sir!!

chemdawg do you not understand the comment Stubby and I made? I said that's the best deal going anywhere and Stubby said man what a deal.
I have no problem with what anyone charges for there service and if they choose to do it for a public service that is great and wonderful. I can't do it because I use guiding to make a living and have for a number of years. I do donate trips to TPWD, and some charity events. I love fishing and wish I could just go fishing and take people for free or to simply cover my expenses, but I would soon be out of business and broke. My expense runs about $100 per trip. I know that sounds high but believe it or not figure it up, over a years time. Add up terminal tackle, rod&reel upkeep and replacement cost, boat&motor upkeep, gas&oil, insurance on truck&boat, launch fees, snacks&etc and it easily comes up to that figure. I'm very happy you can run trips and provide trips to active and retired military, emergency personnel, and other public servants. Keep up the good work, you are a blessed individual.

Well 'll said Jackie

Great to see someone offer something below cost way to go Chemdawg. Once word gets out you will stay booked
