About Rebel Yelp Outfitters & Calls

Chuck Echenique
is a Florida native and life-long outdoorsman. His
hunting obsession started as a little boy when he began
accompanying his dad afield. “I'm so crazy about
hunting, my wife and I scheduled our wedding date so as
not to interfere with any hunting season,” says Chuck.
In 1994, Chuck started guiding Osceola turkey hunts near
his home in central Florida and soon after, began making
his own duck and turkey calls. He owns Rebel Yelp
Outfitters and Calls and professionally guides duck,
turkey and alligator hunts across the state. He makes
hand crafted turkey and duck and other game calls and
has been featured as a recurring guest host on Backwater
Outdoors Radio with Johnny D.

At 39 years of age, Chuck already has more than 30 years
experience afield, and over 15 years as a professional
hunting guide. Chuck is a featured staff writer for
Woods N' Water Magazine and is a current board member
and past president of both his local DU and NWTF
chapters, and active with RMEF, QU, SCI, NRA and United
Waterfowlers-Florida.
Chuck holds a seat on the Deer Management Technical
Advisory Board to the Florida Wildlife Commission as a
representative of commercial hunting guides and
Florida's west coast hunters' interests across the
state. He volunteers his services and products to
charities such as Buck Masters American DeerFoundation
and the Catch-A-Dream Foundation and believes in giving
back to his community through leading by example.
"When
you live for the outdoors and this way of life, you
better be willing to put your time in to educating and
recruiting kids and new hunters. After all, they are the
future of our sport and the only way to ensure we
preserve our hunting heritage for generations to come."
As both a professional guide and hunter's education
instructor he tries to impart the experience and
knowledge he's gained over his many years afield. Chuck
is also pro staff with Final Approach, Rig'em Right
and Duck Junkies.
