I had my last official guide trip Monday and Tuesday and we fished for Smallmouth bass. It was one of my regulars that I have fished with for over 10 years. George and I have caught 100's of Smallies over the years and this year was no different. We boated around 65 bass in two days in less than perfect conditions. Most were on topwater baits of one kind or another and the rest were taken on crank baits. I wasn't able to fish to much so George caught most of the fish. I know I will miss guiding and the friends I have made over the years. I guess I'll just have to fish more to get over all the time spent guiding. ;)  Have a great season everybody.

Ace, hope you enjoy retirement from the ‘guide’ gig.  My son and I have sure come a long way since you first showed us around the lake all those years ago.  We still fish some of the spots to which you took us and I even caught my second largest musky ever on one of them.  That fish and many others I owe to you.  I’m sure your guide services have put a smile on the faces of a lot of other folks over the years, even when you weren’t in the boat.  What you taught folks is a gift that keeps on giving for sure. Take care and hope to cross paths with you in the water someday!  Brian Fitzpatrick

Ace, If you feel you know to go guiding one more time because you miss it so much I'll go with you and I don't charge anything.  ?
