Had the pleasure of fishing with Chuck on Monday in connection with the Ashton Fund...unfortunately Steve Bloss had to return to work in Chicago...Chuck and I missed him!

This is the first time I've actually met Chuck and what a pleasure to be able to look the guide in the eye (he's vertically challenged like me...[;)] ). Although it was hotter than blazes we managed to raise a dozen fish, although we only caught two. Chuck did get me on a beautiful 46 1/2" fatty...I would tell you where but he said he would have to kill me. Ya don't mess with Navy SEALS..[:devil:] .

We fished 4 lakes and had a great time....he is a pleasure to be in a boat with...won't be the last time for me.

Thanks Chuck!!!!

I second what Doc said, He is a great guy and a great person to fish and learn from.

Thanks Doc for the kind words, it was for a great cause. I hope you had as much fun catching that 25lber as I had guiding you to it. Anytime I can add a new FRIEND to my clients list it's a good day, I wish Steve (esox69) could have made it. Take care and I hope to see you again.
Hey Jim, I'll see you and Mike in the fall, I've got a couple of fatty's in line for you.[;)]

Chuck,
I knew there was something I liked about you besides you being a well diversified guide! Navy Seal huh! Force Recon Marine from the 60's myself, All The Way!!! Capt. Larry D. Jones

Who-Ya Larry, Special Forces is like guiding, The only easy day was yesterday. I think we can both agree to that! Take care my friend.[;)]

Chuck,

Do you guide in the Boulder Junction area? Were looking to get a guide for some lakes in that area other than High and Fishtrap which we have a place on.

Thanks,
