We have enjoyed fishing with Rick. I believe Charles uses Jimmy Everett when he takes a guide. Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

It's hard to just recommend one guide. Fork has several that are good. Here's a few to check. Rick Carter Jimmy Everett Tom Reddington Mark Mitchell Lance Vick Kay Dyson- If you can book her (sorry Billy, couldn't resist) I would call several and let them know what you are hoping to accomplish by hiring a guide. Pick the one "you" feel most confortable with. Tell your boy "Happy Birthday". |

I had seen Rick Carter 2 out of my last 3 trips to Fork. He had two guys in the boat that obviously did not have a lot of experience. He works extremely hard for his customers as I witnessed. He was even pitching in to bedding bass and then handing the reel to one of them and I watched this guy catch about a 4 pounder off a bed. Also mentioned to him that I knew Wes and PQ. He responded: "Oh, so you know ole Wes". I admitted to it and asked him not to tell anyone. Thanking the Lord, all day long --- tomc

Zach watch out for Ozzie, he will say his bringing the beer for you but he will end up drinking most of them. Tom I have seen Rick do that for pq |

Oz, anytime you want to go, Lets do it. We'll just go out to the main lake and wait for that red, black, and white skeeter to go by with a dark haired woman in the passenger seat and then follow. Thats what I do.....and it works pretty good! hehehehe just kidding Billy! No but really Oz whenever and it wont cost you any beer....more of a whiskey drinker anyway!
