Slipknot 04-08-2013, 07:52 AM Sorry to hear that news RIP Bob I still have one of his plugs, I'll just hang on to it and not fish it Condolences to his friends and family piemma 04-08-2013, 08:00 AM Made some of the best small bottle plugs ever. I remember a morning 30 years ago at Charlestown beach crushing 30# on a blue and white bottle of his. Think it must have looked like sea herring. I still have one left which will now be retired. Nebe 04-08-2013, 08:21 AM Rest on peace. He was an innovator for sure. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device Rappin Mikey 04-08-2013, 08:42 AM RIP sad news for sure JohnR 04-08-2013, 08:52 AM RIP Bob Sgt Striper 04-08-2013, 09:15 AM I remember waiting at Betty & Nicks for Bob to drop off his plugs when he started building. 15-20 guys grabbing 4 or 5 each, they would be gone in 20 minutes. He was the one who got me interested in building but it was years later that I finally took the plunge. I still have the first surfster I made in the 80's, a copy of Bob's.
