I knew john for about 3 or 4 years.. we would always run into each other at point jude lighthouse and he was always full of energy. the first time i met him, I didnt know he was the needlefish guy and he gave me a beautiful 2 ounce needle that i cherished for a long time- infact i took a fish that was 32 lbs on it.
john was always kind to me and always had a great joke to tell me. sometimes when i would call him on the phone, he would spot my name on his caller ID and yell out "ehhhbeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen!" at the top of his lungs.
He really liked the glass that i make and we did a few trades over the years- I made a glass squid for him and a glass habs needle that he kept in his
'habratory'. in exchange he made me a bunch of plugs- I'll still fish some of them- i know thats what john would want- the rest will stay in my collection to remember him by..
I'll miss you John.
