The cover pic sums it up. The guy lived for the beach, the fish, and the cameraderie.A legend indeed. George was one of the first guys I met out there around August 1986, right after the big blitz happened at Race Pt. Sadly I missed it, but George brought me up to speed about the goings on and was always friendly from that time on. It was rare in those days to have a confidant because everyone was fiercely competetive at the time($$$ invloved) and many resented George sharing with the newbies.
The cover story is funny too, George was known for mysteriously appearing at the first hint or smell of food.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
