Hope he thanks the charter capt. Hopefully someone will "Beat Charlie Moore" with a club.

Bobby Orr was on the show last night. They did land some big fish. I actually like his show. Now I'm bracing myself for the ridicule on this thread!

Hey,

I think everyone can agree he is an annoying jacka$$ tool. Can't hold a saltwater rod to save his life. But you know that being said he is making what is probably a pretty good living being a tool and going fishing and now with that espn beat thing he is even doing better. Good for him.

All part of his shtick, it works for him and made him some serious dough. I have met him a few times, and that is not (thank god) how he is all the time.. LOL

I turned ZLX on and got the tail end of him. I saw the Bobby Orr show last night too and they did land some really good fish, looked like they were all caught on chunks, you could see a rod on the boat rigged with a white 9 inch sluggo, but you never saw them pick it up.
I also hoped he thanked the charter captain, cause they really are the ones catching the fish. This summer, I went on my first fishing charter ever, up in lake ontario, we landed some monster salmon to like 30 pounds and I'll tell ya, I kind of felt like a cheater reeling those things in, yeah it was a blast, but I feel more of sense of accomplishment landing a schoolie in the surf. At the same time, he doesn't really claim to be a saltwater expert anyway, so I kind of think it's fun watching him goof off, he's almost doing a parady of all the other fishing shows that are sometimes too serious.

All I have to say about that.

I think he's annoying to watch. He spends WAY TOO MUCH time talking about garbage that has nothing to do about fishing or the guest he's fishing with.
There was one episode where he was fishing for cod, and you can't tell me that he wasn't instructed on how to hold the rod when fishing for big cod. Well, he held the rod like he was fihing for those "monster" 3lb. Largemouths he's always bragging about, and he had a fish yank the rod out of his hands. To top it off, he was laughing about it like it was real funny.
One of my favorite characters is Tred Barta.
He may be a little over the top, but he doesn't pull any schtick.
Two of my favorite shows were him hunting wild boar with a knife and hunting waterfowl with a longbow.
Tred would eat Chuckles alive and spit out the bones.

I know, but I didn't enjoy it.:o
They have another show on weekend mornings called "Guide House".
They have a group of "for hire" captains down in Matauk(?) that take their client out for stripers. The premise looked good, until it was more like a surreal reality show, and not about the actual fishing.
How disappointing.
If I'm going to sit amd watch a show about fishing, I'd at least like it to be about the fishing, and not about the personality quirks of the captains.

Rockport24
11-06-2006, 02:31 PM
Tred Barta is the man. That is a good example of a show that combines humor and real deal in-the-field action.

Since we are on fishing shows, I want to point out how good "Fishing New England" is. They really do a good job of covering all kinds of local fishing. One complaint though, can somebody tell the dude that does the intro to the show to loosen up? He looks and sounds like a robot! (I hope he's not on this board!)

Tred Barta is also a "Jack A$$"! To quote Charlie..."We were catching huge stripers....45 inches....42 inches....."!:smash: "HUGE"? I think not!

Charlie Moore is painful to watch, I want to kick him in his teeth. No offense to him, just his show personality is annoying. Tred Barta on the other hand is a true outdoorsman, and puts together an entertaining show.

To the average person, a 45 inch fish IS huge,
I know from taking people out on charters!!!
as for Charlie Moore,
He's anoying, but kids LOVE him, and thats a big thing !!!
Maybe if my club (MSBA) had someone like him running the Striper Swipers, maybe some kids would show up instead of only my kids,
like this year!

I found myself as I read this thread, siding on the side of the Charlie Moore haters. Then as I read more more and more, agreeing with some of the more postive posts on Mr. Moore. I guess I would rather watch just about every other fishing show first, but if nothing else is on, I will watch his show ONLY if its saltwater related. There is only so much large mouth bass fishing I can stomach.

sounds to me like we've got some folks here that feel they are just a little better then Charlie b/c they don't get excited when they catch fish. i don't know about you guys, but i always get excited when i catch fish. and the guy is on tv, trying to sell himself. he is a self made man. he started off at nothing, and now he is on espn. sounds like there is just a little jealousy going on here.

if you think he's annoying, thats fine...but like a few others have said, he's laughing all the way to the bank.

i love the guy!:bshake:

I also like the Northeast Journal on NESN. Mainly a fly fishing show but they go to some remote off the beaten path places and the show's host is very geniune, no schtick. Plus he makes me feel skinny.

Charlie Moore funny ... yeah, okay and the world is flat!

He may be laughing all the way to the bank but if being a total ass and getting laughed at is the way to do it, then I'll just keep what income I have and be happy.

He is painful to watch at times, oh, did I mention those times are all the times. No, I have no jealousy thing going on either. I wouldn't want to be a complete idiot to be in the limelight and make a few coins.

I think I'd rather have kidney stones than watch him, his guests are the best thing on his shows and even they look like they'd like to launch his a$$ in the water at the end of the show.

Me, personally I'll pass on watching the idiot, I'd rather watch paint dry.

I would pay Tred Barta to charter out to Charlie Moore for any ocean species and sit back and watch Tred go off...:yak5: "get your head in the game"
Charlie has a pretty slick gig fishing, producing other programs and royalties. Good for him, now shut up & fish.:

I actually was fishing right next to Charlie that day off the Vineyard. I went out with Jen Clark (Lenny Clark's wife) she has a charter boat out of menemsha. I was out there filming stuff for my project when she gets called from Charlie on the radio. She told him where to go and basically put him and Bobby right on the fish. Not a ton of skill involved and we all ended up catching some nice fish, although chunking off a boat isn't too sporting if you ask me.

I have to keep an eye out for that particular episode I may be in the background wearing a red ski hat. 15 minutes here I come.

I agree with QD. But my 5 and 3 year old love him even if he is catching bait sized bass, so we watch. 45 and 47" fish are huge to most. It's not usually hard to find Jenn Clark. She a good fisherman also.

I like Charlie Moore, he is making a good living doing what he likes to do.. nothing wrong with that in my book. I met him with my 3 boys at the worcester outdoor show a few years ago he was great with the kids and listened at length to my 6 year old tell him all about fluke fishin in our "secret" spot off Nomans ( I had to explain to my kid what "spot burnin" was after this conversation)

Charlie cracks me up. I like the mix of fishing, Boston sports stars, and his stupidity. You learn a lot about a person when you fish with them and his shows with Wakefield, Vinatieri, Bill Lee, etc... bring a little insight into those guys. All these shows have their plusses and minuses. Charlie is entertaining more often than not.
