There was talk of Cap. George retiring at the end of the year. Web site still up
sent a e mail two days ago, no reply. What a way to go out.

Unfortunately the Anger was sold I spoke with Captain George and he said he is enjoying the time off right now and said he will run fluke trips for us on the PROWLER5 next fluke season 2019....Also deckhand Lou is with us 5 days a week now...

Good news. A boat is just a boat but there is only one Captain George. I'll be stopping by the Prowler when I hit the Highlands.

How can this be good news when another boat is gone ? And a great boat at that . Wish you well Capt. George .

Maybe George earned it working years of 7 day work weeks?

The boat was sold to scale back activities.

George is a class act. My first party boat experiences were blackfishing on the angler and when the bite was good he would come down and explain a few of the subtleties to me. I worked for fish and wildlife at the time and while I explained a hundred times that I wasn't a conservation officer, he never believed me

Capt. George you and the Angler will be missed, I will definitely stop by one of your fluke trips on the prowler.
