appreciate the offer captain, just isn't my cup of tea. although $50 is a hell of a deal to go out there and experience your program. i fish for the sense of accomplishment, and to me being handed a pole from the first mate, reeling in a 3 lb walleye drowning in the boat wake, doesn't provide me that sense of accomplishment. i've trolled for 200+ lb tuna in the atlantic before, still doesn't do it it for me. somethin about that tug of a walleye. and agreed, very tough to consistently put walleye in the boat casting in august, hence me seeking out suggestions on this board. had heard of a good casting bite near vermilion, thought i'd ask. again, no disrespect to either of you captains, actually hope to get into the industry in 6-8 years. your job is to make your clients happy, and puting fish in the boat is the best way to guarantee that
