SPRING GUIDE TRIPS START NOW, KLAMATH~TRINITY HOT
 ISE Baby 2004 with Jt Hat:
Future Jack Trout Guide! Once again the International Sportsman Show was a great success, we saw plenty of past customers and folks we haven't seen for years. We also met a lot of new characters and had a fun time entertaining the masses as we showed off our booth with over 30 blown up prints from guided fly fishing adventures!!! All ages attended from young to old, beginner to advanced. We shared videos, slides and advice on our local rivers and the best part of all was hanging out with my guides Mike Hibbard and Chuck Volckhausen. I think you'll like this week's story!!! JT
Tom Heard's Lunker:
Tom Heard stopped by to say hello and while he was just visiting, he hooked into this 6 lb trout, he was excited to say the least. Tom is one of our most colorful customers and is often seen in the drift boat doing the Irish River Tap Dance with a fish on!! Way to go Tom you're the SIZZLER OF THE WEEK AWARD WINNER!!! CONGRATULATIONS SIZZLER!!!
Mike and Chuck in the booth:
MIke Hibbard and Chuck in the booth answering questions and handing out our new 2004 brochure! Email us at info@jacktrout.com if you would like us to mail you a new 2004 brochure. Right now the Klamath and Trinity Rivers are open and fishing great for Adult Steelhead.
Alli Winkel the Water Girl 2004:
Finally, Saturday was here! Ali showed up to pass out water and just like planned, every Warm Red Blooded American lined up to get their free bottled water from Crystal Geyser (Mt Shasta) and Ali Winkel. There's no doubt that the traffic to our booth increased by triple as she handed out more water than at anyother show.
Alli's underhanded pass:
Thats Ali's shuffle pass, and a couple of loiterers....
Busy at ISE 2004:
It sure didn't take very long to realize we were swamped with interest!! It was so exciting for all of us. Mike, Chuck and I, all small town guys, not used to crowds. We enjoyed all the people we met and I never had as much fun as I did on this trip. I think people got to see what were really about, servicing customers,teaching, having fun and catching fish on guided trips.
Shasta Nappen:
Meanwhile, Shasta Trout was napping and dreaming about fishing adventures a long ways from here.....
Alli and the gang 2004:
We all want to give Ali a big hug and a big thanks for showing up and helping get the word out about Jack Trout Guide Service! Remember, if you see Ali Winkel on some magazine cover, or better yet on some theater billboard you first saw it her here Sizzler, on www.mtshasta.com Take care Ali you were the highlight!!! Jack Trout and the Guides
ISE COLORFUL CREW:
