RIP Roy Rowan author of Surfcaster's Quest
 
He wrote my favorite book about fishing and led an amazing life. I regret not introducing myself to him many years ago while he was eating dinner at Finn's.

Met Roy a handful of times over the years while on my way to or from Block surf spots. Very pleasant to talk with. Another surfcaster whose spirit will now be in the BI breeze. RIP

Wow - sorry to hear - one of my absolute favorites.

We don't go at the same time but we always go eventually.

What an amazing life he lived. I believe i met him at block a few years back, it was a fella who said he was an author.
