MERRY CHRISTMAS, and or HAPPY HOLIDAY❗
YESTERDAYS ''BIG FISH'',CAUGHT BY A DEAD SERIOUS LOCAL 10 YEAR OLD ''ANGLER'', WHO REMINDED ME....OF ''ME''.
HE WAS ALL BUSINESS. NO FOOLING AROUND. A 100% PLEASURE TO HAVE ABOARD THE JETTYWOLF.
THANK GOODNESS WE HAD HIM. WE STRUGGLED ALL DAY TO GET INTO TROUT, SHEEPSHEAD OR BLACK DRUM. THIS WAS HIS FIRST SHEEPSHEAD EVER.
WOW...WHAT A WACKO ENDING TO 2020.
ON THE 21st, I BOOKED A TRIP FOR 2 PEOPLE AT 10AM IN THE MORNING WHILE GOING TO THE BAIT SHOP TO DO A BAIT CHECK.
''THEY WERE FROM CALIFORNIA''
I RECEIVED THEIR $100 DEPOSIT, HAD A FUN CONVERSATION WITH THEM.
AND GENERALLY WAS EXCITED, BECAUSE IT WAS TO BE A GLORIOUS WEATHER DAY. COLD IN THE MORNING, BUT LIGHT WINDS AND LOTS OF SUN 🌞😎
SENT THEM A CONFIRMATION E-MAIL, WHEN I GOT HOME. WAS AT THE BAIT SHOP THE NEXT MORNING, BEFORE THEY OPENED. AND AT THE RAMP AND IN THE WATER AT 6:10am.
OH...IT WAS NICE. COLD BUT NICE. 7am CAME AND WENT, OUR DEPARTURE TIME. I CALLED THEM 3 TIMES! THE 3rd TIME LEFT A MESSAGE.
NO CALL BACK, NOTHING!
THE 1st '''NO SHOW''' I'VE HAD IN 10 YEARS❗❗❗
IT'S KINDA FUNNY HOW I GET TREATED. A PRIVATE, PERSONAL FISHING CHARTER IS JUST THAT, A PERSONAL SERVICE.
YOU AND I ARE GOING TO SPEND THE WHOLE DAY TOGETHER. I'M NOT SAYING WE'LL BECOME LIFE LONG BUDDIES, PEN PALS OR ANYTHING.
ALTHOUGH, I DO HAVE CUSTOMERS THAT FEEL LIKE FAMILY TO ME.
I THINK ABOUT THEM OFTEN, AND PAST CUSTOMERS THAT MOVED AWAY, THAT I STILL TALK TOO.
THE CONCLUSION IS...I FELT VERY DISRESPECTED. AND FROM HERE ON OUT WILL DO A 1/2 UP FRONT, THAN 24 HOUR NOTICE DEPOSIT, MAKING ANY CALLS/BOOKING LESS THAN A 24 HOUR NOTICE, A MORE ''SKIN IN THE GAME'' SITUATION. THANKS TO PEOPLE LIKE THIS!
TILL THE ''SPRING SEASON'', OR MAYBE NOT, I'LL SEE.
ALL CHARTERS WILL BE 6 HR DAYS. THAT'S HOW I ALWAYS DID IT IN THE PAST.
YOU DON'T HAVE TO ''FISH'' FOR 6 HRS. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO OR CAN'T. BUT THAT IS WHAT YOUR DAY WILL BE BASED ON.
TOO MANY TIMES, THE WEATHER, THE TIDES, THE ''WHAT-EVER'', JUST ISN'T WORKING WITH US. AND 4 HRS. IS GONE IN A FLASH, AND IT'S A STRUGGLE.
WE NEED MORE TIME❗❗ BECAUSE, YOU MAY HAVE A EXPECTATION. BUT ONLY WANTED TO FISH THE LEAST COST TYPE OF DAY.
I'VE HAD THIS HAPPEN 3 TIMES THIS MONTH ALREADY. BUT WE NEEDED MORE TIME.....''BECAUSE YOU PICKED THE DAY, NOT ME''
SO, I HAVE NOW ROUNDED OFF EVERYTHING, TO A 6 HR. DAY. THE WAY I'VE DONE IT IN THE PAST. AND ANYTHING AFTER 6 HRS. IS $100 A HOUR, AFTERWARDS.
MAX. 4 PERSONS. A ONE PERSON TRIP? CALL ME FOR RATE.
