The VERY BEST CLIENT, is the one who shows up with his own, Loomis rods, Curado reels, his own eggs, sand shrimp or squid. Has his rain gear, waders and all his leaders are tied up in his Pips dispensers, doesn't want to stop for lunch or beer , and says, "show me where the fish are in this river I've never fished this one before!" When I go with a guide this is what they get. Sometimes I just don't want to run my sled or DB. It's nice to have someone else do the work. So it's worth the price.
