Charley Soares

[piemma]

Charley is an old friend introduced to me by the late Bob Pond. I have an autographed copy of Charey's book "Stemming the Tide".

It says "To Paul, a student of our great sport, Fair winds, Charley".

Get the book, it is super.

Charlie was always my main attraction (or rather the main reason I'd go) when he used to do the EBA show in Barrington. Years ago, he was also more involved in the local VFW Flea-Market, and yes...he would share just about anything...and his way of story telling, is one of a kind. I truly enjoy listening to him, as well as reading his stuff.

Class A guy, with a nose for finding fish. Chris, you can't go wrong with any of his works.

Like Piemma, I too have an autographed copy of Stemming the tide. I don't even bother keeping a book-mark...

I first meet him because he and Cinto are close friends, almost like brothers. They both are fishing machines.
And a class act, good people and I would call him a friend all day long

My wife and I once ate dinner at the table next to he and his wife at Margarites in Westport. I was nervous that I was chewing too loud.

I really enjoy his stories as well cause they're not chest pounding "look at my big fish stories". He has a knack for taking the other aspects of fishing and putting them so vividly into words that you don't even care about the "what was caught, how many, and how big"

I never read any of his books (or many fishing books for that matter), but am enthralled by the articles.


.....Thank God. By the title of this thread my heart sank cause I thought it was gonna be another "We lost a good egg" thread......
