Other guides would snicker at the take out because so many of Bill's clients didn't catch as many as theirs. It was because Bill would spend hours coaching his clients, instead of just taking a bobber for a ride down the Yuba. Other guides (some very well known ones at that) might have ridiculed Bill, but Bill got the last laugh because he had more repeat bookings than anyone I know.
