Very sad. Last night two of you chose him as "best fisherman", meanwhile he was posting best wishes and recovery for someone else.
I did not know the man but I can tell he was a stand up guy and a great surfcaster. Deepest condolences to his family and all of you that knew him.

 I am so shocked I can't believe it. George if there is anything I can do let me know please. It will be awfully hard to speak of Steve and his accomplishments in the past tense. Truly sad news. My thoughts and prayers to his family. I am with you Larry, I learned a great deal from Steve over the years and this news is a real shock. Way too young like so many of the great fishemen we've known. Rest in peace my friend. |

I just spoke with my wife and told her of Flap...I was trying to tell her which guy it was, and said remember the guy who told me...you're leaving too early--- she said "oh that one"...well Steve you are leaving too early...
hell of a guy, that shared info. with me(most of the time), and took joy with the process, the friends, and EACH fish...
RIP
Thoughts and prayers for you and your family

I too send my deepest condolences to the family and freinds. Although I've only met and spoke with Steve a couple of times, I know how wonderful of a person he was. Nothing but great things were ever said about him. My prayers to all that are close to him.

Just saw this this morning, truly terrible, shocking news -I'm stunned
I didn't know Steve well but had the opportunity to hear him speak at an MSBA meeting - the depth of his knowledge and personal experience was impressive as was his generosity in sharing it during his speaking engagements, his OTW articles and here at S-B
A real loss to the fishing community - my deepest condolences to his family and friends
Rest easy, Steve

This is beyond sad....My thoughts and prayers are with his family...
I met Flap for the first time at plugfest a few years back,I was set up next to his table,my neck was killing me at the end of the day looking up at him as we talked.. I hardly knew him, but I'm going to miss him...

I only knew of him by the pictures, humor and knowledge he'd post here and the respect he had from those who read it. Such a tragic loss. Thoughts and prayers for Steve and his family.
