That's sad news, he was an interesting guy. He told me some great fishing stories out there on the beach.
Maybe people will think its a little bit morbid, but every time I saw him out there over the last few years I'd buy a few plugs out of his truck, figuring one day soon he'd never be back. I probably have 15 of them. I remember running into him airing up on the way off the beach in early October 2005. I said, "See you next year, George" and his reply was "Maybe, but maybe not."
You can throw those pencil poppers a country mile....I've caught some nice bass on them.
Anybody who doesn't know who George is, have a look at some of the old photos on the wall in Nelson's in Provincetown if you ever get up there. You'll see him with some fish that will make your eyes pop out.
