Sad Day!

Yesterday my uncle Bobby lost his long battle with Liver Disease, he was a great guy who loved fishing. Some of you Woonsocket area fisherman may know him. Last year we fished BI together and had the single best day I have ever had fishing, he was sick then but you could not tell by the happiness he had catching 40" fish after fish...He will be missed!
