Today I ran into "Chuckwagon" Chuck and he shared some stories with me. Most very cool, some embarassing, but all good.

I'll try to post more when I get time.

Anyone who wants to share some memories of some other old-time NJ fishermen, feel free to post up.


I got some bad news yesterday, people, Chuckwagon Chuck has passed.
The sadness I feel is deep. He was a helluva guy and a fishing legend among the Sea Bright old-timers.

I last saw him before the fall. We all get busy and think our heroes will live forever....
We forget how the ravages of time will eventually take their toll.

The last I heard, he was very sick and in hospice care.
I think it was Sunday that he passed on.

He was such a colorful guy.....
I am so grateful for the stories he shared with me, and a little sad that I didn't make the time to hear some more.......
My deepest condolences to his family and friends.

I will post more details as the wake and funeral arrangements become known.
Or if anyone else hears them first, please be so kind as to post them up for us in a separate thread.
Thank you.
