Yah, Mary- Denis is definitly the Chubb King and don’t forget that!!! After years of guiding him I still see that twinkle in his eye as a Chubb nears the boat to be netted!!

I have witnessed the Jon/Denis Chub-fest many times. Once those boys get hot on the trail of Chub all the trout in the river are safe. It is quite a predatory display!!!
