Chips From Chip
Chip Tudor, Newport, Washington
I found a new fishing buddy. Bevy Larson brought cane poles to Chatcolab and we took the young kids fishing on Twin Low Lake. Every day kids came up and asked if we were going fishing. The answer was always, “Absolutely.”—Bevy’s 750 Michigan worms almost ran out. Our laughter on that dock echoed across the lake each evening. It was some of the best fishing I’ve ever had.
Thanks, Bevy!!!!!!!!
