No, the guide in questions sucker punched a homeless guy in Florida and put his dad, a police lieutenant, in a bad position. The video is on Youtube...

No, I thought the last thread went too far.

It was a shitty thing to do, and I feel bad for the OP, but it didn't warrant the reaction that has come from the OB.

For whatever reason, everyone here has taken it upon themselves to white knight for this guy. I think it's good for him to be held accountable, but it's gone beyond that. People here are literally trying to ruin this guy's career because of this one incident. It's absurd.

No.

Y'all are taking this pretty far. Linking random captains who have nothing to do with this.


That's why I looked for the original thread to follow up.

I followed the deleted link above to that guys page.

I'm just trying to figure out who did the OP dirty, so I can avoid the guide myself.

Oh, so the guide contacted the OP and either refunded the money or rescheduled another trip for free?

Again, with the thread being deleted, I have nothing to go on.

Offered a full refund and to reschedule for free I believe but OP didn't accept. Think he only accepted 1/2 refund

He refunded half. The OP was satisfied with that so we should be too.

Well it looks like the guide came out smelling like a rose on this deal. All he had to do was crush the dreams of a man wanting to take his son sight fishing.

OB poster starts thread about getting the bait and switch.
Hires this guy to take him and his son sight fishing as the OP used to do it, but hasn't fished in years.
Night before the trip the guide calls and says see you about 5 am. Boat will be gassed up and full of ice.
OP gets call early the next morning from the guide claiming he had car trouble but not to worry another guide was going to take them.
Guide B was late and they don't leave until after 6:30 am missing the sunrise bite.
Guide B does not sight fish. Makes them fish dead shrimp on bottom while boat is anchored.
Guide A sends Guide B a text about killing the reds and guide B shows OP.

OP has his suspicions confirmed that this is fricked up by us.

Guide A offers 50% refund.
OP accepts.
Guide A wins tournament he ditched the OP to pre-fish.

Correction: OP gets call early the next morning from Guide B who explains that Guide A can't make it and he's going to take the other guide's place. But he has "car trouble" and is going to be an hour late.

OP tries for 2 days to reach guide with no luck to discuss. He came to the OB on day 2, guide was not named at this time. Day 3 he names the guide and the OB start hammering his reviews on facebook and locate his prior run ins with the law. Day 4 the guide contacts back to the OP wanting the dogs to be called off, then

Guide A offers 50% refund.
OP accepts.
Guide A wins tournament he ditched the OP to pre-fish.

OP is satisfied and ask that the thread be deleated

My bad. That's right.

He didn't have the intestinal fortitude to talk to the OP directly.
