I tell them from the beginning I do not expect anything, just bring your own food and drinks and any favorite fishing gear they like to fish with.
Now... with that... most of the friends I fish with are just like me, they know I will not except any monetary compensation so they find a way to repay me somehow.

It is always great to have friends like that, I have been lucky so far to have the same.
I really believe it is also how we treat our friends as well... If you use them then they use you, if you are a true friend then so are they.
Most now just bring me 2 1/2 gallons of oil
Damn two strokes 
Back in my early years he'll it took 3 of us to go fishing
One to drive , one who had boat , one who could buy beer lol |
I enjoyed those days, eighty cents a gallon and three dollars for a five pound box of cigar minnows, and you come back to the dock with an ice chest full of snapper and lemon fish... those were the days.
