I've only been with one and it was mixed emotions to it as we went right after the nastiest cold front and rain for days. It was miserable forecasts and the day before we went out with the guide the heavens opened and made some crazy light shows.

So I'm not even going to be fair / biased. AHAHAHAHHA

Over the years I have been with

Larry Large
Brian Duplechain
James Caldemeyer
Mark Pack
Skeeter Fowler

All were good. For my money Pack was the best. Knew every stump in the lake.

Also in the TTBC and later tournaments on Fork

Patrick Walters day 1 the year he won it live scoping fish 6 to 8 feet down in 35 ft. Super cool to watch that.
Shin Fukien wrecked them on a frog
Mark Rose limit of 6#ers. Probably caught 30 over 5.
Wesley Strader
John Crews
Todd Auten lost 2 8+ on a docks in 5 minute span
Harvey Horne
Brandon Lester
Rob Digh. Nice guy. No confidence

Interesting to see how different guys at the Elite level fish. Those in the Classic Cut year after year just have a better game.

I need to make it top 20!


I am seriously going to figure out if I can book all the still working "great guides" on Fork, Palestine and Pines over a 2-3 year period.

Hollice Joyner. Worked with him several years. Best I ever saw anywhere past or present.


If it was a stupid idea, you can be assured I have already done it

I fished a few tourneys with his SIL a decade or so, he gripped too. roflmao

I just got off the water at Choke Canyon with Greg West. We caught 41 bass in two days up to 8.77 lbs. My first trip with him. Great guide! Granted, I want to catch a PB when I hire a guide, but what I really want is knowledge; to be taught. I have fished with Johnny Guice too. Great guy; great guide. He took my brother-in-law and nephew on their first fishing trip ever. His instructions from me: make sure they catch fish! Doesn’t matter what the species is, just make sure they are setting a hook and getting hooked on fishing. Both Greg and Johnny are knowledgeable, attentive and what I think make great guides. I’ll book them both again, soon!
