I've never been a big fan of Tred Barta and the "Barta Way". His trips to the Canyon and the Chinese Fire-Drill of his fishing technique would drive me to throw he off the boat for chum. Nonetheless, Tred's health issues are a real bummer, and I wish him the best in his recovery.

Just bear in mind that in these calls for financial assistance, Tred is a multi-millionaire with homes in the Hamptons (Southold ?) and Vail Colorado. He has planes and multiple boats worth millions, not to mention the $$'s he's made of those TV shows. I'm not sure with his resources why he needs these charitable contributions. I know with recent cancer diagnosis and treatment, my wife's medical expenses not covered by insurance, came out of my own pocket. Something is fishy here.

All of his riches might be mortgaged up the ass, so everything might not be as it seems.
