Back by popular demand, I will repeat this offer again. For those who missed out on the previous postings here it is again.
I have an open back seat for the month of May if interested. Your choice of Lake Fork, BobSandlin, or Cypress Springs. I have a 21ft Skeeter 21i and am looking for someone to help with expenses. I am a seasoned angler and can help anyone who wishes to learn or who just needs an inexpensive guide type trip. Please PM me if interested and we can work out the details. I will post days that have already been taken in my next post. If you would like a day or two let me know soon because certain days go fast. First come first serve.

Patrick, Are you making fun of my small size or the fact that I dance on the front of the boat?  Had a great day on Fork Yesterday with Big Easy and his friend with some good top water action. We boated several 4's, 5's,a 6,7,and 8 1/2 pound fish. Let me know when your ready to hit it again. James

The day of the trip with James was AWESOME. Kinda was funny that I got to the place to meet him at early , and I mean way earlier than I expected lol. So I was sitting there and just remembered he has a 21 foot boat and didn't really ask him what he looks like or anything. I see a feller pull up in a nice ride and beautiful boat. I am wondering if this could be him but not sure. So I don't say anything just sit in my vehicle finishing my poptart and mt dew. It is getting close to meeting time and well this guy in the same rig still hanging around... Yep its James lol. We got on the water and he immediately had me on fish. He kept hinting toward this topwater bite but me being a norther folk was being stubborn and throwing my baits. I was feeling good as my baits did catch fish that he put me on. Then he got me to use a bait I rarely use and I was able to pull in three fish on this bait. The first two was dinks, and I will admit that but still happy to catch em on this new technique he got me to use. Next thing I know I manage to get my biggest fish so far on Fork and snag a nice 5lb toad on the new bait I am using. Get a picture of this one please sir lol. We continue to keep chuckin at em and he moves me to a spot that he gets me to finally throw a buzzbait. I was being stubborn and I regret it now lol. I managed to top my best one with a buzzbait bite not once but twice. I would like to thinkt he 3rd one was pushing close to 6. I was stoked and excited. I had an awesome time and fellas he had me on the water all day and it was a blast. Taught me things in fishing and what to look for. Great conversation with the guy and just all around blast. My next guide trip will be with James. Get in on the chance fellas before he is booked up and not able to do this trip with him. I can't wait for the next trip to go out on the water with him again.
Thanks for the great time James.

Tom, I sent pic's to your e-mail. Let me know if you did not recieve them. I had a great time, let me know if you get the chance to go again before you head back north. Maybe your buddy can come along as well. Nothing like a good buzz bait bite to make for an exciting day  . I still have a lot of openings if anybody else is interested. The top water bite has really started to pick up. Just pm me any date you would like.  Thanks, James H.

James,
Got the pics, be sure to tell everyone 2x the size of the fish compared to me lmao. I had a great time and I will see if I can sneak in another trip on the water with ya. At this point it is a touch and go as I am not sure what time I want to head back yet. Thanks again for a great time.

The month is about over and I still have tomorrow the 23rd the 31st and what the hey June 1st open. I plan on being away from my computer starting today through the 1st if any one is interested in these dates call my Cell. Fishing has been great with a big topwater bite early and a great spinnerbait and soft jerkbait bite later in the day. I plan on working on deep water pattern and finding new water on any days that are not taken. I will be on the water if anybody needs to contact me. Please leave a message incase I don't have a signal (or I'm in the middle of netting a big one). Also feel free to contact me if you need any help on the water. Cell #903-253-4609

I fished with James last week and had a blast. We caught lots of slot fish and several keepers. The bite was on and off but we had fun regardless. James is a great guy, easy to talk to and pretty dang funny. Now if I could only figure out the secret to the bubble gum... Hope to fish with you again soon buddy.

Okay campers, I'm sitting at home today  (had a no show  ), but had a blast this week fishing with fellow TFFer's. Thanks to James, Oscar, Tom,and Richard for being my guests this week. Tff guys are the greatest, we had good numbers of fish and had some big gals. I will try to post pics when I have a chance. I have been getting a flurry of inquiries now that the month is over, it seems the word is starting to get around. I might be persuaded to do it again if there is enough interest also I can take more than one person at a time if there is a need. The bite is coming on strong so lets see how busy this thread can get and let me know if I should repeat. This weekend is already taken and I have commitments on the 4th, 8th, 21st, and 22nd. To those who have already taken advantage of the offer please spread the word so I don't have to sit around the house (or mow grass) again. Peace out, James H.
