MY BOAT - So you know what to look for at the meeting site, my boat is a 2003 Stratos , white cap with a black hull and red and maroon accents. It is 20’ long and powered by a 225hp HPDI Yamaha Outboard.
WHAT I PROVIDE- I provide everything needed for a full day trip on the water, including tackle, rods, reels, drinking water and some snacks. You may choose to bring rods/reels you are comfortable with. I carry all the current baits so there's no need to bring any tackle. I do not charge extra for the use of my gear. You should plan to bring rain gear, even if rain is not predicted, and bring plenty of clothing if the weather is cool or cold.
FISHING LICENSE We are checked on the water from time to time by water patrol. Licenses are the responsibility of the customer.
OTHER ITEMS - I provide life vests, and all legally required equipment on board. If you have special needs, special dietary requirements, or special medical conditions, let me know and we'll work out the details to make sure we have what we need for the trip.
WHERE TO MEET - Meeting place will be specified with respect to which end of the lake we will be fishing. It is important to contact me two or three days prior to the trip in order to finalize any plans, and discuss any weather related changes for the trip. Usually trips begin at safe light depending on weather. Exchanging cell phone numbers is a good idea in the event something happens during travel to a meeting place. Normally I give directions to the launch site and we begin and end at that location. My cell phone is 636-697-2692. We do have locations with limited cell phone service on our waterways.
SEVERE WEATHER – Lightning or severe winds and rain can sometimes be a problem. If possible, I wait out passing severe weather. If the severe weather is prolonged, other arrangements must be made, rescheduling, etc. Safety is a priority.
QUESTIONS AND CONTINUING SERVICE - Be sure to ask any questions you may have before the trip, and I am happy to answer any questions about fishing during the trip. I am happy to provide updates for clients should you choose to return. I provide fishing information via email or over the phone, and will be happy to mark a map for you during the trip if you have one. Maps are available at shops around the lake.
PAYMENT - I accept cash or check after the trip is finished. Checks should be made out to Gary Morrison. Tips are very much appreciated but not required.
