My greatest moment fishing happened on June 3rd 1997. Fishing Nonquit in Tiverton and hooked up on a fish about 30#. Had a heart attack while landing the fish. I handed my rod to Bob Vanase, who was with me, took 2 nitros and took the rod back and landed the Bass. Went to the ER about 2 hours later and they admitted me with a diagnosos of an MI with a full occlusion of the Right Coronary Artery.

Absolutely the best rush of my fishing career.

No boat, back in the suds.

A 14" striped bass on a boone needlefish, during a daytime blitz in a cove 1/2 way down between Hadley's and Pine Island, around 1966, age 11. I'd dreamed about and tried pitifully on my own to catch that first fish for 3-4 years prior. I'll never catch anything of which I will be prouder.
