When I hire a guide anywhere, not only Big Lake, I always tell them whether we're fishing for meat or for a trophy. If it's trophy fishing, they don't fish but "guide" to make sure I have the experience. That's been the case at least 10 times from Cabo (where we trophy fished 1 day and I tagged and released a 425# Blue Marlin) to Montana. On Big Lake, I've always meat fished and we all caught our limit. When the guide got his limit, he spent more time "guiding" than catching. That's been my experience...
