Biker,
I totally agree with you. It sounds pretentious unless the captian is
guiding on large bodies of water or unless State requirements call for
testing, knowledge and experience coinciding with the title. If I got in a
boat with any freshwater bass guide who was not on the big pond (Lake Mich)
or it's equivalent and he called himself Capt. I'd be looking for Tenneile
sp?

The only exception is of course that old codger Steve H from up north.
And the reason for that is "Captian" is a bit more humber than "His Majesty"
which is what Summers told me Steve makes his clients address him normally.
So I can do the Capt. thang with Brother Huber g
