One of the best people Ive had the honor to call friends in the surfcasting community, his is a loss to all.
I have many memories with Habs, he will be missed.
My heart goes out to his family and friends

I'm still pretty much shocked and in denial. He was so full of life and just an all around great guy. When I was new to building, I was chatting with him in Mike's booth at the MSBA show just talking to him. He was giving me pointers and just being...well..social. Then on the boards, he was seemed to have a great heart as evident by him sending plugs to people and giving more pointers. Great stories and great guy. A true loss to us all.
RIP, Hab's. My condolences to the family and you will be in our prayers

I enjoyed fishing the HABS tourny.
*Habs stubby needle was my top producer on a recent night of fishing
