TESTIMONIALS Here are a few things clients and colleagues are saying about their outdoor experiences with The Backwoods Angler: "Blaine, I first of all want to thank you for your trust...I just want to tell you what a fantastic time we had fishing with you. Your knowledge and skill of the river showed thru with every move you made and we caught more fish than we could have ever imagined. The way you kept us slowly going by the spots while holding the trolling motor was truly professional. We will always remember our first trip down the Delaware the talk, the fun and the fish. God willing we plan to make this an annual outing for us and the next generation. good health, family and business." Steve and Steve Jr. WInka (Southern NJ--7-09) "Thanks for a great day...The Delaware is a thing of beauty...You are truly "the man" on the Big D!"
Mike Novis, Belvidere, NJ (8-06) "...Blaine is a terrific guide and knows the (Delaware) river and cold water fishing better than anyone." Michael Haney--Exec. Producer Delaware Valley Outdoors (12-05) "Just wanted to thank you again. You were under the weather and managed to put us on fish, 42 of them, including a nice 20-inch smallie...Thanks for a great time and a lasting memory." John-Paul Volinsky, NE PA (9-05) "...My dad and I met up with Blaine this past Friday in Easton to tackle the Delaware. From the moment he arrived, Blaine was professional and courteous. By the time we made it back at the launch, we had boated 37 fish. Although the active catch was most certainly appreciated, I found Blaine's continuous guidance and instruction even more satisfying. He not only offered advice, but he also explained the reasoning behind his suggestions. I can truly say that I walked away from the experience a better angler . If you're considering a trip to any local rivers, do yourself a favor and book the outing with Blaine. You will not regret your decision! Anthony Elias, SE PA (6-07) It is always a lot of fun to be out on the river with you. You are a good dude and know your stuff really well. We look forward to getting out with you again next year. Jim Glazebrook, NJ (7-09) "I must thank you for the many hours of patience you have spent with me, no matter what type of angler I bring out with the Backwoods Angler, you manage to show patience and respect. Your knowledge of the Big "D" is impressive. I have fished the slow bite days, and the glorious 75 fish days....Each time I fish with you I learn, not only about the fish or the river, but about being a better angler. There is no one I would rather fish with on the Big "D!"
Jay Rosenthal, SE PA (6-09) "Blaine is one of the nicest Christian men you will ever meet...One of the nations best river smallmouth fishermen...as professional an outfitter as you will ever meet!"
Ian Godwin, President/CEO Sport fishing Ventures Unlimited/Fishing Dreams Unlimited (2-08) "Tom McDuffie and I had a great day on the Delaware this past Thursday. You offer professional service on a stretch of water I would have never considered. Your knowledge of the smallmouth bass and its diet was the key to our success...good fishing and fine company!" Bryan Wilhelm, Retired professional fishing guide (7-08) "...a 20 degree drop in air temperature, stained to muddy water and a strong north wind. Needless to say, this is a tough situation for any guide and fisherman to be put into. 8 hours and 30 SM later, including a 4.9 lb bruiser (my biggest to date on the Big D !) my friend Bill Lin and I couldn't help but be impressed by our guide and friend Blaine Mengel...a true passion for the outdoors, conservation and the Smallmouth Bass! I highly recommend Blaine and The Backwoods Angler Guide Service to fishermen of all skill levels. You will have the time of your life!!"
"Axeman" Dan Kilinski - NJ Bass Anglers and SM Nation Inc Member (10-06) "We truly appreciated your wonderful information and education on smallmouth fishing on the Delaware...You are a true professional and a pleasure to be with. We plan to use your techniques..."
Alan Glickman, SE PA (6-05) "Thanks for the awesome fishing trip Friday. It was great to be out on the water with you because you know the river so well and were able to target locations where we could catch lots of Smallies. I was impressed with your ability to maneuver in the river so well keeping us where we needed to be. I also appreciate you sticking it out through the heavy rain! I'll definitely have to book another trip!"
Christopher Smith, Reading, PA (6-06) "Thanks for the good time today. I wish fishing were better, but it was probably one of our better November trips, and it was fun being with my "therapist" again today......Another fond memory in the treasure trove!"
Al Paul, Allentown, PA (11-12-08) "Blaine, fishing with you is now a favorite activity for me and my sons. You're a great guide and fisherman, who knows Delaware River Smallies like the back of your hand. While my sons are older teenagers, I imagine you're great with all kids and fishermen of all skill levels, novice to expert. Our fish count has ranged from 25 to 68, and many experienced fisherman I've shown our photos to friends who are amazed that such a great smallmouth fishery (and guide) are so close at hand in the New York-Philadelphia corridor."
Glenn and Michael Melrose, NJ (5-06) "Blaine is the most down to earth guide I have ever used, not cocky, willing to teach you new techniques...And he will not give up if the bite gets tough...Its nice to be able to be with a guide like I have known him my whole life, its more like fishing with a friend. You can tell this guy does what he loves and happens to make a living at it."
Vince Keiper, NE PA (11-06)
