Thanks Chet :) That was very thoughtful of you.
Stan Gibbs certainly was an innovator and was ahead of his time, a true legend. He belongs in the hall. I visited the IGFA Hall of Fame 2 years ago when I was down there and I didn't want to leave, it's amazing how good so many fisherman were/are. The things people are able to accomplish is amazing.

OK - if we put together a HOF or Memorial Page, how would we want to do it. I can certainly think of a couple deserving people if it were a memorial page but a local scene HOF might not be a bad thing, and you don't need to move onto the next world to be in.

H.O.F. might be the Stan Gibbs and the Bob Ponds and the Woolners and Murats of the world. I'm opening this up to discussion and as much as Stan Gibbs would deserve to be in any Hall Of Fame talk, I'll move this HOF topic to another thread... http://www.striped-bass.com/vbulleti...threadid=12686

Stan Gibbs
 
Rest In Peace Stan......He was a master of his sport and a true Surfcasting legend of all time . I will never forget the enjoyment I had talking, casting and fishing side by side in the Canal with Stan, in his later years. I hope you all enjoyed the chapter in my book, "Stan Gibbs Still the Master"
