   My friend Rob Phillips had a massive heart attack and died last Sunday night...right after him and my brother got back from their first trip out on the river this year. Those of you who watch my videos have seen Rob...he was always the life of the party...everyone just loved that guy. I spent some of my best fishing adventures with Rob, fantastic memories. Godspeed my friend. :'(

Here's a link to his memorial. https://fb.me/e/2B8vzwHUb

Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

Deepest Condolences, Mike —-

The times and friendship you guys enjoyed are what is important.

The time for those trips and friendship is now.

So true Fred, we never know when our last trip will be so we have to make every one of them a good experience. true friends and good fishing buddies are hard to come by.
Make them all count.

I'm so sorry for your loss Mo. I lost one of my best fishing friends two years ago and I still think of him every time that I get on a boat, and you probably will too.  It's almost like seeing them again.

A tough loss, for sure.  Peace to all concerned, and especially to you, Mike.
