I heard Dan Christopher (owner of qualityfishing.net) had his Oregon State guide license revoked for felony assault? Apparently sprayed down another boat with his pump while fishing the Columbia...Anyone else heard this?...Later

That's felony assault? Sure he wasn't pumping another fisherman? smile

It's fairly old news..... I don't know what the results of the issue were...

It would blow me away if someone lost their guides license over a free shower........ I've been known to pass a few on to buddies.... chain

Last I heard they got him at the sportsman show down here. But the is the same story I heard from a good source. Shouldn't retaliate with your name posted on the side of your boat.

The marine board lists all active guides in the state. His name is not on it. Maybe he just quit guiding.

I think it is best if people do not spread around nasty rumors about other dudes. I was on the opposite end of this one time and all the [censored] that was stirred was just that , [censored].......

I personally don't know him, but if isn't your business it is probably best to stay clear.

Just my 2 cents worth.

I'll seond that............. Dan Christopher seemed to be a nice and legit guy on the first and only time I met him about 5 years ago.... He needed some assistance in whacking the Bonneville Springers so a friend of mine "fishbait off ifish" invited me with them and we boated 20 or so springers by noon bouncing eggs.......... Seemed to be a legit dude.....

Boy what a bunch of back hill rednecks. Ever heard of a phone??

Why dont you call the marine board and ask them. Wait thats too easy. its easyer to spread rumers. Busted at the show??? Lies.


No my license has not been revoked or does the marine board or either Oregon or Washington have any actions in place to try and revoke it. Feel free to call them.


Keith
Struggling?? if i remember correct I was using my eggs, gear and scent all day. I caught just as many fish as you did on your stuff. You helped me with what??? Fishbait is the one that ended up using my scent. So lets not go there or we can start talking about the stories you were telling on the boat that day. bet these guys would really respect you about those. I know Keven would as he has the same history.



Until then I think Bob would be well placed as to tell you rednecks to back off and get your facts straight before bashing a guy. A rumor that you heard with sleeping with your wife's brother doesnt count. Fell free to call the marine board.

until then later

Maybe I missed something here, but I don't find Dan's name or his guide business anywhere on the active list of guides? maybe he didin't get it revoked. Maybe the marine board made a mistake in not listing his name. I'll give them a call today and see where the error is. There are a ton of non licensed guides out there, one phone call should clear all these rumors up.

Based on a rumor you call out someone by their real name on the internet, while standing behind your screen name? Accurate or not, You owe someone an apology big time.

When I first joined this board, a person who owns another board came here and made false accusations against someone who was a licensed guide, accusing him of ripping people off. It took a while to uncover the facts and I was suspicious of that guide for years.

He is now a good friend and one of the most ethical men I know and I wish to hell I never had to read the lies posted about him.

I'm friends with other guides who've had the same damned experience here. This is just WRONG...

I raised my pump and sprayed a fellow guide off the dock and into the lake one moring when I worked in Alaska because he pissed me off. Sometimes a dude just has it comming to him.

Lodge owner was unimpressed.

Okay this is over.

Dan thank you for the response. Well said.

For the people sending me PM's about my post, I was not speaking about Dan. I have never met the man.

My comment was simply that I talk to alot of people in the store that claim to hold one or both of these Oregon licenses. I was simply stating that many of them do not appear on the list. I found that interesting.

Jake...........

What can I say?
