Another friend gone

It is my regret to inform the striped-bass.com family that our own “Crafty Angler”, Chuck Vietry, has passed away today. Arrangements will be posted when available.

RIP Chuck.

With a heavy heart,
Dennis Zambrotta

Sorry to see this news. My thoughts and prayers.

So sad to hear. I was wondering how he was doing. Chuck was a great guy and I enjoyed talking Allman Brothers with him among other things here on the board. Rest in peace Crafty....you will be missed.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

oh man, awful news.
I am so sorry to hear this
Chuck was such a great person

RIP

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

That one really hurts...

Chuck was one of the nicest guys I think I've ever met. I was lucky to fish alongside him briefly one night in Newport and shared plenty of great conversations with him here or at the edge or wherever. Terrible news, people always say "he was one of the good ones" when someone passes, in this case, Chuck was one of the best ones... RIP old friend.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him in person.

RIP, Uncle Crafty.
