Capt. Chris Elser – Fishing Guide and Charters

I got a call last night from a good friend who is also one of the top fishing guides in the area, Captain Chris Elser. He wanted to get a few publicity shots and asked if I would like to join him this morning while he was on a scouting trip for a charter later this week. Needless to say, he didn't have to twist my arm very hard and I met him at the dock just after sunrise. As usual, the weather report was a little off and there was more wind than predicted, but the skies were blue and crystal clear, making for great photographs. After catching a number of striped bass Chris gave me a much needed casting lesson with the fly rod. Being a professional, he never laughed out loud at my feeble attempts but I'm sure he was tempted many a time. It wasn't long before I was back behind the camera... where I belong.

If your interested in some great saltwater fishing, either conventional or fly, I strongly urge you to give Chris a call. He offers both charters on his own well equiped boat or he can act as a guide on yours. Either way you will have a great time and learn a lot about fishing. Chris is based out of southwestern Connecticut and you can find out more at his website. Here is the link... http://www.ct-fishing.com/
