Was in anyway derogatory . Capt Bernie is a dear friend of mine as is his wife Elvira. I just don’t like the word, “ packing it in”

Bernie has been fighting the fight of his life and winning the war , it was with his permission that I’m responding .

Bernie and I go way back to our roots in flemington and didn’t meet until we were 100 miles offshore probably 35 years ago.

I remember a night he was on the bow of my boat all night catching longfin all by himself, what a night. In any event,he’s is a dear friend and colleague .

He once told me, “ Dave, there’s two kinds of people in this world,givers and takers, and we are givers❤️

Sometimes life catches up and we have to put aside what we love about fishing and tend to ourselves or our loved ones

Well said Capt. Your passion and compassion ring through. Best wishes to Capt. Bernie and his family. Tony
