My condolences to the Gibbs family and to a member here on the site who I believe was a very good friend of Stan Gibbs, Flaptail. Flaptail told me right after the Plug Feast that Stan was living in a rest home in Chatham I believe he said. Keep the great memories close Flaptail, and that original Gibbs plug you generously shared with us all at Plug Feast closer. Thanks again for sharing. 
Rest in peace Stan Gibbs, the first name in plug building as far as I am concerned.  |
Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Stan was a real good guy on top of everything else.
He'll be missed. He was an even more talented wood carver than he was a plugmaker.

I've driven past stans n. home atleast 4-8 times a day for the past two years, thinking I should stop an say hello, but always being in rush I never did. I just didn't want to be one of those people looking to have him sign a plug like so many others, being a pest..I know his son an will send a card or say something when I see him at the coffee shop...another great local fisherman gone |
BOAT fish do count.
