Barta is one of my favorites, because of his personality and his
balls-out fishing and hunting adventures. He's doing his best to recover
from a spinal stroke. Barta hunts with a longbow and sometimes only with
a knife. Here's an update on his medical condition.
I wasn't aware of that. Good to hear he's making progress. His
personality is a little abrasive for me, but he's a bit easier to take
than Lindner and Parker who haven't quite sorted out whether they are
there for fishing or preaching.


Al is a nice guy, just a little...um...different with respect
to...er...well let's just say different. *I met him WAY back when
In-Fisherman first got rolling - reallly nice guy and he did a lot for
fresh water fishing with the scientific approach and a fairly good
bunch of writers and editors. I went small mouth fishing with him on
Lake Champlain and he really is a great fisherman - don't know why he
never went into tournament fishing.


Hank Parker? *I never knew why Hank Parker ever made it - the guy has
all the personality of a rock. Hell of a fisherman though gotta give
him that.


The one that drives me nuts is Roland Martin.


The one time I met Martin, he was very friendly and helpful, as was his
wife. I've posted this before...we had a great time at his marina, and
fishing out of it on the Big O.- Hide quoted text -

And you still can't tell us what one single VERY unique feature in his
marina is.
