Why not?
 
Terry got this whole "guiding" thing started. The lodge was opened in 1975 and Terry was fishing the lake long before that. I would say that this could be accurate. There used to be a lot more bigger trout way back when. He put Big Lake on the map!

haha
 
Although ,when he was a teenager, the lake was probably a lot more populated with big fish but that is probably a very rounded estimate. That is something Terry would say though. I enjoyed his presence as a kid growing up fishing with him and my grandfather, who were very good friends. And yea he played pro-ball and would have single handledly taken out the Vietnamis if not for the other marines there.. haha

I learned alot about fishing from though our camps are next to HR&G and guys would meet him at 8:00 eat breakfast, then go fish. None of this 4:00am crap- He never checked the weather either, would always say never know till you get out there....
