Default FISHERMEN/Very Sad Day all around today. Tuesdays Report

The day started out perfect with great weather, an awesome group of guys all anticipating a good Striper Bite.

Sadly on the First Drift one of my long time customers Lynn Fair, 74, passed away. We rushed to the Coast Guard station and everyone did all they could do, to no avail.

Accompanied by his best buddy Joe right to the end. Lynn was an avid Fishermen & Hunter, he also owned a kennel with his wife Sunny. They raised and trained many dogs in their life. His passion will certainly be missed and our hearts are broken once again. Fair winds my friend.

To say the wind was taken out of my sails is an under statement as the rest of the day was horrible as far as the fishing goes. Covered a whole bunch of area's, found plenty of bait but the Bass were a NO-SHOW today. Managed only 2 keepers.

Back at it tomorrow. Rest in Peace Lynn.

Capt. Ron

Wow capt that's terrible...
I have only heard stories about medical emergencies out at sea
Never experienced them when I have been on a vessel let alone a death at the rails
RIP
The striper GODS will he good to you tomorrow

Very sorry to hear. I think most of us would want to go the same way.

Fair winds and following seas

A sad day indeed, RIP Lynn, your last wish was granted with fellow fisherman. If we have to go as fisherman, that is the way to pass on.

Bitter sweet. never wanna see anyone you like go.

But I would rather die ( if I have to) doing what a love. Not in some god damn hospital surrounded by mostly strangers.

Perhaps Lynn won his biggest pool ever yesterday? We will find out for ourselves later.
