George Calzone is an old friend who I fished with many times. You can leave a message at Nelsons in P-Town and Mike knows how to get hold of him. George lives in Springfield MA.

Back a few years ago there was an article in OTW about George and the tourists were coming into Nelsons and having George sign it. He was tickled pink.

Boy, the stories he could tell. He caught a 61# bass on Nov 1, 1961. He didn't think the fish was that big so he buried it and kept fishing. Came back the next morning , dug it up and then had it weighed. Prbably lost 5 # to the sand.

This was before the national seashore came into existence and the boys would camp in tents on the beach. When they left for a few days they would just knock the tent down and let the sand cover it until they returned.

No boat, back in the suds.
