Thread: I was tellin the truth.....almost

I can't say that I have ever saw a guy struggling and withheld information(if I had it,) that could help him, except maybe if I am pre fishing for a tournament. I run into people on Conway all the time who obviously don't have a clue about how to catch them there. They always tell me they ain't biting when my live well is full of slabs! I do my best to put em on fish, tell them the how and why, give them a few jigs that I am catching them on, and even offer up my catch if they want it. Last year, I ran into a guy at Adams Lake and he was struggling, fishing a jig and bobber about a foot deep. I had him jump in my boat and we fished through the area, and put seven fish in the boat in about twenty minutes, took some pics and gave him my catch for the day. That was last year, and the bite this year is better than ever! They are putting in their time, unlike the internet scouts. Somebody took the time to show me the ropes, what happened to paying it forward?
