Just want to let everyone know that I'm making this my last spring to guide!
My body is telling me ive guided a year to long.
I will miss everything and everyone!
I will be fishing and guiding some but i don't to schedule anything.
Me and Janis want to be in the Big Bend next Spring time.
It's been 22 years sense i could schedule anything besides fishing in the spring.
Look i could go on and on . Thanks Gang for all the suport and prayers over the years. It's been one heck of a Big Time and i mean a BIG Time!
I've asked Chris Watson my best bud long time partner in crime to take over my fishing reports and to start taking any and all trips past May this year.
Love you all stay in touch I've made so many life long friends doing this.
Vaya con dios!

Rob and I always look over to see if your boat is out as we drive down to the Oak Cove ramp. Hope your last trips go well and you enjoy new adventures.

Woohoo, does that mean we can use the 50% off coupon for 2021? "It expired yesterday", is what i always hear. Time to hang up the spurs and enjoy some time doing what you want to do. I know you have been an important part of many families enjoyment over the years. There is nothing better than seeing a youngster bringing in a fish for the first time. I hope your shoulder is doing well, I had one done about 8 years ago, and had frozen shoulder. Now I think it might be time for the other, keeps waking me up at night. Take care, God Bless, and hope you have a great year..

Bob, Congratulations! (I think) Hope you enjoy some free time. I sure enjoyed the trips that we took with my Father In-law Frank & his best friend John. They laughed like little kids and had a great time when we went out together. Unfortunately we lost Frank last Thursday. the pain of loosing Frank is lessened by us knowing that he was enjoying a beautiful day eating, a Banana Split with his life long best friend John, when he passed away suddenly. The last time we went out they were tired but giddy on the drive back to Azle. I will always cherish the memories of that trip.
Thanks for the memories,
Willie
