[Tarzan's Jane]

Really!!!.....to not speak to the comments directed at you dumbfounds me. Anyway, I like bacon and eggs with toast, cold juice and no beans.

I agree Nancy, several members report terrible service at this camp yet the owner totally ignores them and continues as if nothing was said.

[Fish4Eyes]

Very interesting how he only comes around in the spring/summer time too

[darsky]

........ now about that OFC discount??

[kgeary]

Hi twilight I'm not sure about you but Lew - you know very well there is no point in my addressing those comments.

I've been thru this type of thing before.

 

 

 

fish 4 eyes - In January and February I've posted non fishing related items on here that were extremely unique and of great interest to ourdoor lovers and had nothing whatsoever to do with my business and I still received negative comments.

I must add that I also received a lot of positive comments and emails.

 

 

Hi Darsky I'll give all OFNers a 40% discount on trips between august 14 and sept 15

 

I've had a bunch of OFNers visit and they had glowing reports.

[Sketty55]

I've never been to a fly in or any type of fishing destination whatsoever. I keep saying i'll plan at least once in my lifetime....I would hate to read a report like this one, book the trip, and then find out it was not what I wanted. I'm not familiar with the lake, the accomodation, or the poster but I just think that although this qualifies as a report, the owner of a resort is somewhat biased. Glad to see that fellow OFNers have pointed out the relationship of the poster to the resort.

[WeedLine]

Keep those reports coming. Disregard all of these negative comments. I love seeing those big pike and walleyes. I'm gonna make it up there one of these days. This world is full of complainers. Shut up and FISH!

[darsky]

40% is quite appealing. Can we apply that to 2011 since 2010 is a bit rushed? I am sure said negative issues were resolved since...

 

I for one like the reports and pics. Save some for off seasons.

[kgeary]

Thanks sketty55 and weedline

I try to make it very clear who I am with my name and my signature.

 

I used to be a minnow now I'm a NET ATTENDANT

 

Darsky yes we can do it in 2011

I can't do it in June of course.

but the same time frame

Yes of course all negative issues are resolved quickly.

Get a hold of TJ, buy and ad or banner... nuff said!

[Terry]

as I pointed out before

I do believe he has paid for a banner here at some point

but does that give him the right to spam?

clearly some think it's spam while others believe it's a good report and want to see more....I think the mods will be pulling their hair out trying to find a compromise ..........

I would think a sub section in the business section might be an answer. that way people know it's a promotional post.......

and what about people promoting their business inguise of a fishing report and they don't have a banner and really only come here to make money

Hi Headhunter

Thanks for the advice

however I do need to point out.

 

I HAVE BEEN ADVERTISING WITH TJ for 6 years.

 

I have banner ads on this site and 5 or 6 others of TJ's

I receive a lot of traffic from TJs sites to mine and I appreciate that.

 

I've spoken and emailed with TJ many times.

TJ has never had any issue with anything that I've posted

and appreciates whatever I bring to the board.

 

All is well

[kgeary]

[danbouck]

Although the reports do look a little spamish (if that's a word) they are always very detailed and interesting to read. I see no problem as long as he pays for an ad which he does.

 

I like the 40%

[capt bruce]

Terry I could not agree with you more . As a member who loves this site and the great people who come here , I make a point of NOT patting myself on the back and will in no way take advantage of the hard work the mods do to create this great community to advance my business . Each to his own my daddy allways said but to me SPAM is spam , and to Mister Geary let your happy customers toot your horn ,will mean alot more to the people here .Just my take on things and as TERRY said this is a disscussion board and we are haveing a peacefull discussion . B

[Guest ThisPlaceSucks]

terry really seems to take these personal! i don't know why, because there's countless guides posting the same type of spam. not that i don't enjoy his posts, but when "fishhunter" posts reports of his clients, or steve rowbowtham of his, why don't your feathers get ruffled then?

 

 

i myself, enjoy that sort of post provided that you are paying the site for adspace. i also appreciate both positive and negative comments regarding guides and outfitters... it's the type of info that makes OFC a very useful tool in determining where to spend our hard earned money!

 

keep up the nungesser reports!

[Terry]

can you show me one..even one time that Lloyd made a post about catching fish.....his clients post all the time but not Lloyd not ever

 

 

as for steve rowbowtham, if you look at his posts, I think you will find that I never reply to any of his threads that are about his guide service, however he is a good member of this board and posts about many other things and replies in many , many threads..so because of that I overlook his self promotion

 

other guys spamming, I react on a individual case by case,..I use my own rules and they may or may not be better or worst then someone else, but I stick to them.......

 

 

as for taking it personally nothing could be farther from the truth

if you reread you will see that I somewhat defended him as showed that he does have a banner, so should have some(undefined) leeway

 

do I take part in discussions ..you bet isn't that what these forums are for

Good points, Terry...as for Lloyd, as I'm sure he's told you as well...he never will post, believes that is entirely up to his clients.

Took the family out for 1/2 day with Steve R...also a class guy, who made sure, as best he could that the kids had fun and learned something.

I've noticed that a few other guide services that used to put up clients results, have stopped doing so. Good for them!! It truly should be up to the customer to post results, what better advertising is there than satisfied happy customers showing their success!!

This thread may very well be proving that controversy is great advertsing...I'm definitely thinking about planning a trip up there. 'Course, the 40% doesn't hurt either

Exactly what I was thinking. I've never heard of the place, and the guy can't be that bad if he has been around for 6 years.... 40% does look tempting as well. But that's one hell of a drive....

[fish-miester]

Il be honest I like reading these posts. yes they do seem a little "spam-ish" but thats the vibe when ever I read any of the "guides" posts. and well I wish there was more feedback on all the guide services out there.. good and bad.

I'll be honest I was sorta looking into taking a trip up there or one mush like it and reading the mixed review its a tough call though the 40% is a beauty deal and the fact of getting away is always nice.

[kgeary]

I agree somewhat

However I don't expect my guests to print brochures and attend sportshows for me.

 

This is a new type of advertising.

But even in the old types of advertising negative talk about competitors never worked in the long run.

You don't have to wonder who I am and what I'm doing

(also I'm a dad and just can't help myself when it comes to my kids big fish or big adventure)

 

I try to make every post informative.

Today was dead calm , the lake was flat.

It was an absolutley gorgeous day but mile high skies ( you know)

I knew some of my guests would have a difficult time

So I went out and spent a bit of time with a few that were not doing as well.

Others were just fine, Like the Hodnes who were well over 1000 by lunch.

 

I had Hayden and Dennis with me

Dennis doesn't need much help but still appreciated it.

I also had our cleaning lady Belinda, she loves to fish.

 

The biggest change I mentioned to people was to cover a little bit more area.

I mostly simply anchor up and cast the areas even if it is 14-20 feet.

Use 1/4 oz or lighter and let it fall on a tight line.

The lack of wind makes it much easier.

I spent a lot less time vertical jigging under the boat.

Can move the boat a bit but not a lot and keep it slow.

The nice thing about that is that the pike get spread out and you have more active walleye.

If the walleye are laying flat to the bottom then there is likely a pike active right there.

a good time to anchor up and work it for 30 minutes or so.

 

Most people would give up when the lake is like glass all day.

I'm not sure how many we boated in 4 hours but I caught 70

and their were 4 of us, so?

 

Belinda had this nice walleye

Hayden had several nice ones

I managed this Giant walleye before we headed in for supper.

Which was unfortunate because we were just on top of a bunch of big active walleye.

oh well.

Sorry i will have to post photos later have some things to take care of

This post is really frustrating me.

 

Someone totally slams the guy. Actual reports of unsatisfied customers who have had their well being risked while fishing at this resort.. Potentially life threatening situations. What does the resort owner do?? Posts again talking about his clients catching 800 walleye in a few hours, and attaches a bunch of pictures to boot.... And to top it off, says that 30 the walleye where attacked by massive pike!

 

Maybe I'm alone on this one, but Kgeary, You're deterring me from even considering your resort for future fishing trips.

 

Give me a 40% Discount.. I'm still not coming to your resort.

[Nipfisher]

I'd like to go in 2011 at 40% off. Mr. Geary will take real good care of us OFC'ers or we'll post negative comments about him. I expect at least 801 walleye!

[Grimace]

I do not get real excited about trashing a guy. I am not overly enthusiastic about expressing my beliefs in this case. It would have been better if it was better.

 

Kgeary has mentioned as few times that he has not hidden his name. Well that is because he is onto self promotion. He has suggested that I am hiding behind a name. My name is Dave Turple. I booked a trip with Angler's Kingdom a few years back. We got screwed but at the same time we were lucky. Some guys did not have a boat for days. Imagine driving 40 hours to not fish for a few of your 7 days. The things I said earlier was true. I have no reason to lie.

 

Weedline

 

You say to shut up and fish. We are complainers. I was raised by two wonderful people who have never been overly excited about luxury. My parents just got back from a month and a half of tenting in Alaska and across the country. My younger years of outdoors were spent in Algonquin. My family does not need luxury. I am going to work 10 hours tomorrow drive for seven sleep for 3 and fish for 12. Without luxury. Would you like me to pick you up?

 

 

I am one of the lowly construction workers they speak. I used all of my excess income to go to this place. Have not since.

 

Weedline. My name is David George Turple. Kevin Geary screwed me. What is yours? Geary has suggested that I am hiding behind a name, well there you have it. I am not.

 

Your humble servant
