Overall Impression: fair

WHILE THERE WERE MANY BEARS HERE, AND WHILE BRAD HAS MUCH EXPERIENCE, HE AT TIMES WAS MOODY[HE SAID HE FELT "BURNED OUT"], AND IT TOOK UNTIL THE 2ND WEEK WHEN HE AND I TRULY PUT IN GOOD AMOUNTS OF TIME HUNTING, AT WHICH TIME BAD WEATHER SET IN. HE THE FIRST WEEK REFUSED TO GO ASHORE IN THE MORNINGS, SAYING "BEARS AREN'T OUT THEN", AND SLEEPING IN, INSTEAD, UNTIL I VIDEOED SEVERAL HUGE A.M. BOARS, RIGHT FROM THE BOAT, AND SHOWED THIS TO HIM. HE ALSO WAS AT TIMES ACCUSATIVE, AND LOUD IN THE FIELD, AND OTHER TIMES SIMPLY WAS NOT TALKATIVE AT ALL. HE TOLD ME, OUR FIRST NIGHT ASHORE, TO CARRY THE BOAT LINE TO THE TREELINE; I DID, AND THEN, BENT DOWN TO KNOCK LEAVES OFF MY WADER, AT WHICH TIME HE YELLED, "DON'T TIE IT TO ANYTHING!!!". NEEDLESS TO SAY, WE DIDN'T SEE ANY BEARS AT DEEP BAY, THAT NIGHT. ALSO, HE CAME LATE TO PICK ME UP FOR THE AIRPORT AT THE END, ADMITTING HE "FORGOT ABOUT" ME, TO QUOTE HIM. HE ALSO PROMISED TO SEND ME MY 5 LEGALLY-CAUGHT DUNGENESS CRAB, FROZEN, WHICH NEVER OCCURRED.
