Hey John - look forward to seeing you and your mom shortly. I hope all is well.

I'm sure to wave and say hello to your dad frequently when I'm out fishing. I like to believe he's up their listening and usually laughing at me when I'm using an eel.

He's certainly been missed.

We all remember your Dad John. We always will.;)

Johnny, it was good to just know the King

Hope both you and Mom are doing well, I'm looking forward to seeing you both real soon

GOD BLESS

This one :buds: is for you

Hey Jr making a big pot of Red Cabbage this weekend dont know if you remember how much dad loved the stuff when i brought it down. Miss him was just so much fun to be around.

Hi Jr. Always remember the good times.

Got a few of his big blue pencils hanging off the curtain rod just a few feet away.
Looking foward to seeing you & your Mon soon. Mike

Went down to the sea tonight.Strangely I had every rock to myself,shrouded in an eerie gray mist. I threw his needles,black and then John's favorite white.Lots of fish,all small but lots of them. We had a nice chat....

Hello Jr.

Indeed it's a very sad day and the KING is sorely missed! :(
Hope all is well and I hope to see you and your mom soon.

Hey, John!

will sea you and Jess at Flo's, i hope??
God Bless you, both, AND The King's Memory!!

Couple months ago I was throwing plugs at big bluefish. I went through the rotation and caught them on everything. The last plug in my bag was a white needle of your Dad's. I said to myself "I'm sure John would want me to throw this one too." First and only cast that day of that needle culled the only bass I caught that day.:) Amazing.

The king is gone but not forgotten...

John Jr. - While I have never been fortunate to have met you, your father was certainly a gentleman and ambassador for the surf fishing community/industry ... always friendly to everyone, always willing to lend a hand and his insight ... his generosity will never be forgotten ... but is certainly missed.

Thanks, Andy Dear

Salute to the King

thoughts are with you.

Not forgotten. Jr, we will see you and your mom at the tourny. Casey + Kacie.

I think Laptew said it best in this photo

I swear Habs comes up all the time, earlier today Pt Jude Joe quoted him to me in a text.

John Jr,

It was a sad day when Kadir called us on the Vineyard and gave us the news.

Your dad is thought of everytime I throw a needlefish into the darkness. He is sorely missed. Just read some of our emails.

Hope you, mon and all are well. See you all soon..............



IT'S BETTER TO HAB'S THAN TO GIBBS

It's hard to find the words...
 

Johnny, I think of your dad often, especially when I'm watching one of his lures work down the edge of a sculpted wave. We had a lot of laughs together and his memory always brings a smile to my face. I hope all is well with you and your mother and I look forward to seeing you both soon.

Perhaps this image says it all.

That is very nice Mike.

i often think of john when throwing needles at night- he says to slow it down....and i think he's helped me catch a few.

From all of us at Ct. surfcasters God Bless you and your mom. I still give John's advice on fishing needles to new members and also remind myself when fishing, crank to top and turn handle slooow.
