Found this web site on my baby brother's (Kevin Brian Ellis Sr.) PC. He passed away on January 1, 2024 after a brief illness. He loved fishing & obviously was fond of your site...

So sorry to hear of your brother's passing. Can we assume from your message that you are communicating here through his account?
