nate treats guide service

[jason stevens]

Next time go out with john thomas rotten chum we had a lot of fun with that guy even on the trip that we didn't hook up.we will be going multiple times this year.sorry you had a bad experience.there's a lot of good guides and some that aren't so good.the one that gaurentees you catch fish should be the last one you call.

Only thing I saw on piscatorial pursuits was some guy complaining about him using bait on the Tokul.  I don't get why that would be such a big deal, sounded more like a bitter person, I think I remember reading about it before too on WAlakes.  I haven't heard anything on ifish, but I tend to stick to the bass and panfish forum on there.  Sucks for the experience for Seatown though.

I think a lot of it gets deleted because it gets so negative.  One other discussed on there that would get so bad was about a guide named 'angie' got to the point that the name was/is censored and if you used code about her you got a ban.

Wow, this is the first I have heard of him being a poor guide service. 

Do tell of the other sites that rip him.  I know he is on Washington Lakes and I have not heard anything negative there...

piscatorial pursuits, ifish, fishcan, Washington fly fishers, probably a few more.  A lot of the stuff gets deleted by their mods.  The stuff over there for him is kind of like it is for Barbour over here.

hahaha what you don't like his "VIP" hunts???

I'm not kidding when I tell you he was on heroin. He almost killed us driving down Ben Howard road. And yeah the anchor was an ongoing joke with us. We lost it and had to pull over to the anchor store. ALSO he crams the four of us on his little boat with his dog. I mean really. I don't even know why we paid him.

[bobcat]

Wow! I wonder if he and Shane Barbour are cousins?

The comparison to Shane is very fitting I've read most of the threads that have been since nuked on PP... The OP's experience with him seems about par for the course.

I'm really surprised that he's still trying to play guide....

Just a fun fact.... He used to advertise on CL and in that ad, he would talk about how he used to be addicted to meth, so it pretty probable that he was on something that morning.

Nate Tweaks Guide service? 

Seriously though, I have heard way more bad than good about his services.  The only place that ever says anything positive about him is the beginner fishermen over on walakes that don't ever catch anything on their own and are excited at the chance of some flossed up boots. 

Sorry to here about your bad experience.  I would try Rotten Chum next time.  I have talked with him a few times at various launches, real nice guy and I see him on the river having his clients on fish with good consistency.

Nate does a good job cleaning up the bad press.  Not much I can pull up on him.

I know on Washington Fly Fishing the threads get nuked by the mods after a bit.  Theres a running joke about him over there as being a native Steelhead killer (which he is legally though).

WALakes wont allow any bashing of their sponsors.  I rarely visit anymore.

I feel really bad for you. I'm not a guide but do alot of fishing on columbia. If you want u would be more than willing to take you guys down here. Just have to do it on a Thurs or Fri and pitch in a little for gas. I can almost promise you a few fish. Trying to do my good deed for the year. Scott

[Bean Counter]

Good for you, Scott! 

[Seatown5]

It gets worse. He deleted my profile on wa lakes and my reviews. No wonder he can keep any bad reports away. When you post it says that your message must be played by a site moderator, in this case it's nate!  Scott, that is amazingly generous. You don't do meth or heroin do you?

[singleshot12]

washingtonlakes.com is a flippin joke!  Full of wanna bee's,braggerts,and drug addicts.

Sorry you got suckered into it and wasted your time and money

No way I would have crammed myself in to his truck or boat if he was on drugs. I don't care how great of a swimmer you are... You can't take dead back.
