Hi
I just wanted to say thanks again to Todd and Brent for a great day fishing. Their patience level is to be commended when you have that many 8yr olds all shouting 'I need bait, my line is tangled, I need...., can I.... '
All the boys thoroughly enjoyed it and I've had lots of positive comments from the parents. Apparently they were all full of stories when they got home. I expect some of them will be looking into the school holidays workshops. Everyone wants to go fishing now!
Here's a photo of when they all first sat down on their chairs - a moment of peace for me:)
Regards
Michele _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Todd,
As it is the end of the season for Junior Fishing Club I had to tell say something. My son Lewis was a
5 yr old with an interest in fishing. Now he is a 6 yr old boy with an obsession with fishing and more knowledge about the practicals than me and I've been fishing since very young. Lewis is quite shy and the staff has done a terrific job of making sure he involves himself with all of the activities. He has learnt an unbelievable amount from him. He spent the afternoon outside with his rod practicing his casting. We have already signed him for the next season. I just wanted to thank you, Melanie and the other staff for bringing this club to Newcastle.

The Young Guns Fishing Adventure we had for our son was the best birthday party we've ever had. Fishing is something he is passionate about and it was something all his friends were really excited about doing. The Young Guns guys were fantastic at teaching the boys and keeping them under control. It was all so well organised and safe. I particularly liked the casting rods (without hooks) and the lesson they were all given in casting and managing the rods, prior to actually fishing. And once they fished they were all so proud of themselves as most of them caught at least one fish, if not more. Little touches like the fish pinata and the invite design are a great idea. It is educational, it is a great life skill and above all, it was a lot of fun.
We really thought it was fantastic.
Thanks,
Jodie

Hi Melanie,
I attended this afternoon's fishing class and thought I would provide some feedback.
When I arrived, I thought there had been a mistake as I was 25 years older than anyone else in the class. I knew you held a lot of kids classes but was very surprised. I was almost tempted to turn around and leave but thought what the heck, maybe the kids could teach me something. Others who get embarrassed may have easily chosen to leave.
Anyway, I have young kids of my own and was glad I stayed. To watch these guys operate in such as professional and courteous way to every person attending the class was refreshing. I do not know where
they get their patience from but it seemed to be ever lasting. I am not sure I know anyone who could prepare bait, bait lines and untangle knots for three hours straight and still look as though they could do it for hours more.
Equipment was excellent, the guys skill level and format of the class was great and although I didn't catch anything to boast about, I enjoyed the chance to kick back and learn a few things whilst soaking in the pleasant atmosphere.
I will definitely be recommending your classes and will be sending my boys when they are old enough.
Cheers
Keith

Hi
I just wanted to say a big thank you for the fantastic time my boys Darcy and Cohen had yesterday at Narrabeen.
They were a bit dubious at first but the day was a great success and they can’t stop talking about it. I really appreciate the gift voucher and we’ll be looking to book a party with you soon.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
I thought I'd let you know that the kids had a blast at fishing lessons yesterday. I'm not sure who the instructor was but Maurice hasn't stopped talking about all the tricks he did with his rod.
He was so excited to go fishing with you guys he got up at 5.30am made his lunch, made his sisters lunch and had his school bag packed all by 6am. I am hoping we can have fishing lessons 5 days a week !
On the way back to school all the boys agreed to tell all the other kids how crap the lesson was so that next week they could have the lesson to themselves again.

Hi Todd,
No doubt things have settled down a bit with school holidays over….
We had a great day, the kids keep talking about it. We’ve been back there once since the day with Young Guns.
I’m still amazed that you’re giving such an amazing prize/gift voucher. Arabella will be extremely excited about this, and she is very proud and keeps telling everybody she meets! You certainly had a big impact.
Thanks very much and happy fishing !!
Cheers,
Fiona

It was quite a good day and I actually picked up a few different ideas,hopefully to improve my fishing.As I haven't got Todds E-mail address,could you pass on my sincere thanks and appreciation for the day?I really appreciated his willingness to pass on some of his knowledge,and put his passion for fishing on display,a true professional.I hope to be able to support your business by 'word of mouth' as I believe many can benefit from the experience.
Thanks again,best regards Andrew.

Hi,
The excursion was fantastic. All the children participated in the activity by the end of
the day - including those who said they didn't want to at the start of the day. The tuition from Mel was spot on and most of the children were casting their own lines by the end of the day. In fact we had a few who didn't want to go home and it was some effort for our staff to get them to give the rods back. It helped a little that there were two rods given as prizes.
We thought all of the helpers on the day were wonderful. We all felt safe and Thanks for a great day and inspiring our group to go fishing more often. And the children are still wearing the fishing caps from the goodie bags.
Thanks again for everything _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Hi Linda Just a short note to say thanks for Saturday. Todd & Mel were great. The kids had a great time. James was pleased that Todd helped him get the catfish. (Birthday Party)
