Old #7 feedback - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Thanks all for the insight.

There is no question in my mind that Jeff will put you right on the fish. He has a stellar reputation as a fisherman and captian. I just question his business acumen and ethics. I don't wish to sling mud, just looking to validate the story he's giving me as true.

The basic story here is that I booked a trip and he cancelled. It's been a couple of weeks and i get mixed messages about what happened.

1st story was, "there's no fish in SD yet, we're not coming down there"

2nd was mechanical problems

3rd story was that they are getting out of the fishing business and BK lawyers are involved.

My frustration comes mainly from the fact that nobody has ever called me. The only information i have gotten from Old#7 was when i called them. To make matters worse, i have called Jeff personally asking for a return call about 4 times over 3 weeks and still no call back.

I've been told time and again by the folks @ the office, "don't worry, you'll get your depost back" but when i hear "going out of business" and "you'll be contacted by Lawyers" I serously have doubts.

Hopefyully his business survives and everyone gets their money back, we'll see. Stay tuned.
