Uinta ice, Thats too bad that you lost some cash due to your misfortunate family event.
But I wouldnt hold it against jim.
I dont know the guy, never have met or fished with him.
I have no reason to stand up for him other than the no refund policy seems to be quite common.
Sure it would be nice if a guy would understand and give you your money back, but most of these guides have already tied up money in the trip in preparations like fuel and such plus they have turned down other bookings that they could have made money on.
From what I have seen its quite common for a guide service to not refund your deposit for a canceled trip.
Maybee its not the best way to do buisness but I woldnt single one guy out for something that is the standard operating proceddure of many many guide services.
Now, BLM its nice to see someone finally put the nails to you.
I tell you what having fished with BLM on the gorge for days on end chasing the big macks, I can tell you the guy doesnt give up easy. He wore me out. Its nice to see that someone finally wore you out.
I just want you to remember on the trip we went on, I guided you onto a 33 lb laker. And I didnt charge you a thing, or work your butt off. Plus I even provided a smallmoth dinner.
Now quit praising this jim williams and start praising me![angelic]
