WHAT I
PROVIDE -
I provide everything needed
for a full day trip on the
water, including tackle, rods,
reels, snack food and drinks.
There are stores on the water if
needed. You may choose to bring
rods/reels you are comfortable
with, and some tackle of your
own. I carry all the current
baits so there's no need to
bring much in the way of 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 -
Licenses are available at the
launch sites, by phone or
on-line.
Click Here for
Fishing License information. We
are checked on the water from
time to time by both wardens and
the marine police. Licenses are
the responsibility of the
customer. At this time, guides
are not allowed to sell
licenses, or allow people to
fish under a single guide
license.
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
lake and weather. It is
important to contact me two or
three days prior to the trip in
order to finalize any plans, and
discuss any weather or river
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 home phone
is 256.582.5201, and my
cell phone is
256.599.4229. Messages can
be left at my home number, in
the event my cell phone is out
of service area. 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 in the bait shop
or other shelter. If the severe
weather is prolonged, other
arrangements must be made,
rescheduling, etc. Safety is a
priority.
PAYMENT -
A Deposit of $100.00 is
required to secure a Bassin Adventures trip date.
Final payment is Due upon
completion on the scheduled
Adventure.
I accept cash or check or
money Order after
trip is finished.
