What our 2004 Customers have to say. |

June 30, 2004 Sparky
was my guide. I thought he moved a little too often and we did not catch
as many fish as I had in the past and was a little disappointed. 15 minutes
late cost us getting in a good spot early in the morning. Everything else
was good, fished the Saturday before father's day.

June 30, 2004 Had
a great time when we went fishing. Just that I paid for everybody takes
a while to gain back to where $880.00 doesn’t hurt any more. See you in
Decatur Aug 1st.

June 30, 2004 We
had a tremendous trip and caught our limit, mostly on topwater action!
Roger was a great guide and was especially good with my 10 year old son,
Colin. He put us on good numbers of fish and helped us to each a catch
a "big un!"

June 30, 2004 I
read your reports and I was very satisfied with my experience.

June 22, 2004 I wanted to say thanks to David Pineda (Guide) for making my husband's Father's Day so special. My husband Greg, my two sons and two other friends went fishing with David and had a fun and successful day fishing! My husband likes lure fishing and David was willing to accommodate his request and make it successful. They came home delighted with their Father's Day catch! Thanks
again, we’ll call you for our next fishing trip!

June 21, 2004 Donnie Winegreart and I had a great time and plan on coming back soon. Everyone there was most helpful and everything was what you said it would be. We have both been telling everyone if they want to catch fish come see you for the best fishing trip. Thanks
again for a great trip,

June 21, 2004 Hi Guys!! I just wanted to let you all know that I had a really good time on Saturday! It was my first time on Lake Texoma, not to mention, the first time Striper fishing. I know it was kind of slim pickins' Saturday morning, as far as catching our limit of Striper, but we all had a really fun time. I'm e-mailing you guys to find out when the digital picture will be on your website, of the fish we caught on June 19th. I, Kelsey Andrews, was in the group with Connie Kelly, Phyllis Strickland, and Teri Fitzgerald, on the sheet we filled out for the free trip, Lin & Debbie Ballard and Charlie & Pam Yeager were included. Their guide was Greg and our guide was Roger. If you get some time, please let me know when the picture will be on the website, and if it's not posted, would you mind e-mailing it to me? No one believes the size of fish I caught. Again, I just want to let you all know we all had a really great time and thank you guys so, very much!! Kelsey

June 21, 2004 Hey, what’s up Roger?! This is Jacob from the tour. I just really want to thank you for your time. As hard as you worked and as good of a job you did you should be getting paid thousands a day.

We can't wait to schedule our next trip. The guys are all ready to come back and make it an annual event. Once again THANKS for the great service. See
you this fall. Bruce Turner

June 1, 2004 Thanks to all and especially Roger. Another trip and another great time. As usual Tinker's Guide Service provided a great Striper Fishing Trip. Out guide, Roger Hill, was outstanding. Five of us went fishing and we all caught our limit. Roger really displayed his skill as a guide, distinguishing the stripers that were ready to feed versus those that were just hanging out. We spotted many schools of fish but Roger would tell us these aren't the ones that are going to bite and he would continue looking until he came across those fish displaying the characteristics he was looking for. He was right on the money. We had a great time and caught some great fish. Albert

May 28, 2004 Tinker, Just wanted your future customers to know what a great time my wife and I had fishing with John last Friday. The Stripers were all but "jumping in the boat". We released numerous fish over 20" and easily caught our limit. A fishing experience we will remember for a long time. We will definitely be back . Ed

May 21, 2004 Hey Tink! Wanted to take a moment to thank you for a most excellent fishing experience. Billie and I had nothing but fun as we enjoyed the only place to be in Pottsboro - in the middle of Texoma with a rod in one hand and a cold beverage in the other. Thanks to your fantastic guide, David, we caught tons of great lookin' bass which I look forward to cooking in many and varied ways. Boat broke on Texoma, Jo-D Harrison Boat

May 3, 2004 This is so great that you put pictures of my fishing trip on your website. My two sons went crazy, seeing that I went without them. But unfortunately because I was on business they could not be with me. Thanks, I had a great time with guide John Harris. I will be back in several months and I would like to fish with him again if you don't mind. See you in a few months. Thanks
again, Richard Keswick

April 20, 2004 Tinker, I had a great time fishing with Roger Hill. I have probably worked with and fished with more than 75 guides in my writing career and Roger has the stuff great fishing guides are made of. He loves fishing and that shows through. Luke

April 10, 2004 Dear Tinker and Guides, Thank you so much for the free guided fishing trip last month. We thoroughly enjoyed fishing and the weather was beautiful. We will be eating the fish we caught on Easter this Sunday. Please tell David, “Thank You”, we really appreciate all the hard work he did in making our day enjoyable. Thanks again and God bless your business this year. Ralph

April 5, 2004 Brenda, Tinker, and John, Thanks for the great fishing trip on 4-2-04. My son and I had a great time and you guys made us feel like family. John Harris is one fine guide. He is serious about what he does and does not fool around. You go ten minutes without a bite and you are moving. I like that. We are planning on making this an annual trip with you. Next time I will try to make the brisket more tender. Thanks
again. Don Parker and Randy Parker

March 26, 2004 Good morning to you all; I want to thank you for another wonderful trip. My kids will be remembering this fishing experience for many years. As we drove home they were asking, when can we go again. Roger was masterful with the kids, and also showed great patience with us adults. We hope to be scheduling another trip with you very soon. Again,
Thank You very much. Jeff Stevens

March 22, 2004 Hello Brenda, We noticed our fishing picture was already posted on the tinker website. I want to extend a very special thank you to you and Matt (guide) for helping me and my three boys create a life time of memories. "I personally look forward to the day I can share stories about "Steamer Island" and how we caught all those fish - - even the two or three blue catfish with their children." Everything you guy's [Tinker's] did was top notch and I highly recommend Matt to anyone out there looking to have a "real pro" with a lot of patience & know-how take you striper fishing. I especially recommend Matt to anyone wanting to take their kid's fishing! We caught our daily limit (40 striper's or 10 a piece) and Matt stayed the course with my three boy's who were fishing for the very first time. Brenda, you made us feel at home from the minute I called you from Houston to make the reservations on through to when you took the pictures at the end of the day and prepared Justin's (15 year old) 12 plus lbs fish to be professionally mounted! We'll be coming back to Lake Texoma to do it again and we'll be back in the boat with Tinker's! Thanks,
Danny, Justin, Corey, and Joshua ("The Volz Family")

March 01, 2004 It was a tough day with wind and bad conditions, but David worked his @*# off to find us fish to get our limit, And we did. When we left the lake we had a limit (60) of stripers and 2 sandbass. Thanks for a great trip. Al
Copeland and friends.

February 26, 2004 I meant to get this e-mail out sooner but have not had time. I would like to thank Tinkers for the trip we had back on the 5th, 6th, and 7th of this month. The first two days were rough with the weather and some mechanical problems but our guide, Roger Hill, was up before dawn catching bait and knocking ice off the boat so we could have a good trip. He, and his wife, definitely went above and beyond to give us our moneys worth. This is two years in a row we have fished with Roger and plan to continue making it an annual event. Last year there were three of us, this year it grew to seven. With the pictures of stripers, 76 pound catfish and good reports of excellent guide service the group we bring back is sure to keep growing. Again, thanks to all and tell Roger and Gina we look forward to seeing them again. Maybe sooner than next year. Thanks,
Steve Roberson

If you could e-mail them to my address here at work, we want to share them with our co-workers. Thanks
again, Jeff Stevens
