2 years ago today
I can't believe it's been 2 years.
He left us all way too young and is dearly missed. John was one in a million for sure.
here was a good thread from 2 years ago http://www.striped-bass.com/Stripert...s-stories.html
RIP Habs

Thanks for posting that link, Slip - it's been on my mind for the last couple of days
I was out on the rocks at the last place we fished together in the wee hours of Tuesday morning looking up at a dark sky full of bright stars
Without a doubt Senor Habs was one of them

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Habs was a good guy for sure! Glad I had the opportunity to get to know him a little, wish I had the opportunity to know him better.

He's around. I was fishing Monday night an all of a sudden he popped into my head. Strange in that I really hadn't thought about him lately.
I miss your smiling face John. You were a true friend to me.
