Well We want to go to Baffin Bay the middle of April for 2 days of guided fishing, The guide must provide accommodations and catches BIG Trout.

I have looked on the Web, but would like to hear from Yall on any referrals

You guys really screwed me up with this thread.

Being a Canadian it's well known Baffin Bay is the large body of water between Greenland and Baffin Island in Nunavut Canada. It's grade school geography.

I honestly thought, for a moment, you were traveling to Iqaluit in early April to catch trout! Are these guys nuts? ...I thought

Maybe if I go get a beer I'll be able to stop laughing at myself.Grin

No Problem CDNWhaler, caused no issues here. Baffin bay is the very most southern portion of Texas before you get to Mexico, so there was no issues mixing it up with our Canadian Brothers back yards!Grin

Here's the recommendation from a couple of guys from work.

Steve Schultz

home 361 949 7359

Work 361 813 3716

email sschultz@stx.rr.com

Guy must be a neighbor of mine as the 949 prefix for his home phone is N Padre Island.

Hope this helps out!

Some guys I know went to Baffin over Memorial Day. They caught a full limit of 20-26in. trout three days in a row. They used Roger Sherman, a Rockport guide and a Baffin guide. He has two boats, one at each place. They all are experienced fishermen and claim it was the best trip ever.

just my $.02

I have a friend that lives in Corpus and guides in Baffin. Jim Leavelle. Here is his website.

If he can't take you, I am sure he can find you someone who can.
