Ok.....I'll keep this short. About three years I sign on with Marty to fish the Big Rock. The nite I handed him the deposit for the charter.....he invited me to fish the Cape Fear tourney also.....so I write him another check, for $1730. During this time we had built a friendly relationship....I had a great deal of trust in him. One nite I leave a couple of feeders I manufacture with Capt Brian to give to Marty. Well I get a ph call on my way home....its about the feeder would make a great rigging bucket. So I design the rigging bucket with all the slots and Brian and Marty help with the lid. We get together one nite and I told them I would finance the thing.....and we would sell them.....and apply the money from the sells toward the debt first....and if it made a profit I would give them one third of it. Well, Marty comes out to my place and leaves with 150 RB to sell for $30 plus freight. Thats $4500 in sells to apply toward the debt. He sells out. I said I will keep this short.....I got a total of exactly $900. YOU CAN FILL IN THE REST.

Now getting back to the Cape Fear deposit.....Marty tells me, they did not fill the other slots.....but not to worry.....I will fish the Pitates Cove instead.....well I got bumpted from that one. During this time its BFT season and Marty invites me to stay at his place in Atlantic Beach. I walk in his shop one nite....to say hi.... and he fusses/cusses me out....he says he will pay back the deposit and that we are even on the RB.

Well a year or so goes by.....still no payment,no returned calls/bmails, he's closed shop....I finally go to the court house to file papers for the $1730.....since I did have the cancelled check and the receipt for the Cape Fear tourney Marty had written. They suggest to me that I need to have Capt Brian and the boat owner served......so that we could clear this matter. I called the boat owner and told him of the situtation.....Brian called me and asked me why I had not told him about this already.....they both were very apologetic....and said they would confront Marty about it. Capt Brian.....told me that they had not fished the Cape Fear in 5 or 6 years---when I heard that I knew I had been had all along. Marty ended-up paying the $1730.....last summer.

So John, thats the two main reasons for the source of my resentment. Of course not ever getting an, "I am sorry Jim", is another.

Admin-

I don't have a dog in this fight and it's none of my biz-ness....but does SFC really want this type stuff aired out in public like this??

[Admin]

I have said it before and Ill say it again, I have seen marty post time and time again that he wants to take care of things with anyone he can.

Me personally I went bankrupt and lost everything 5 years ago and to be honest alot of people were owned money. Could I take care of things right then no i could not.

Are people allowed to have problems ?
Have you gotten all your money back ?

Why do you sell buckets here ?

Im sorry but I think throwing the stone everyonce in awhile is bull.

Either make amends and move on or go away.

If you need your belly rubbed i think your on the wrong path

I hope everyone feels better now and we can stop speaking of this.

Thanks for the post.

Peace out

Jd Im sorry but between jim and raymond im sick of it.

Marty is a good hearted man who loves to teach and help people.
I think marty has found a great home here and built himself a great job. The job is helping people.

If people can not be happy that a man has found something to do that he loves then they need to grow up.

Things like this are never going to go away, although I think John is doing the best he can trying to get these guys to grow a pair and act like men. Big job, but he’s trying.

Where I come from, if you feel you are wronged you go try to make it right as soon as it happens. If you cannot make it right, you move on with your life and leave it behind. That’s what men do, or so I’ve been taught.

If one thinks that lurking around and periodically sending out internet “bitch slaps” is a mature way of dealing with a disagreement, then I would say that person should spend some time looking into the mirror and doing a critique, rather than looking into a computer screen with the internet muscles on. I guess the internet provides a larger audience for the embarrassment that is attempted in these types of things, and wider spread embarrassment is the goal of this type of person, and the internet also allows cowards to pretend they are the man they wished they were. We’re never going to convince people to handle their problems in private like a mature adult if they’ve never figured that out on their own. But these people should also know that the vast majority of the internet audience, to whom they hope to broadcast the other party’s embarrassment, are intelligent enough to see through the fog and know the instigator is so pathetic that this childish behavior is their last remaining chance of feeling like they are relevant. I kinda feel sorry for them.

Anyone wanna talk about circle hooks?

from another skewed angle. Is this a form of advertisement? Like telemarketers? Fire up the computer, type in the address to this site. Scan the posts for a runner and
bam I scored a hit tonight. I scored a hit tonight.

First , let me say publicly so there is no question, Marty Hiatt is my friend.

Ok, do you feel better Turkey ?? Did that take a load off your chest ?? You admit Marty paid you the money, so this should be done, Correct ????

From my point of the site, this ain't good. This site gets bigger and better everyday, based upon the positive energy of Admin and Jer, and the members. Now im not suggesting, we all don orange sheets and sing kumbya, but we thrive on positive things here.


Marty is a HUGE contributor here, and also my friend. If you have issues with him, take them up with him in private. so please if you want to contribute, please do so in a positive fashion if you don't, well then to quote our top contributor PEACE OUT
