Smalliefisher: i feel your loss brother.
I just lost my closest friend and life mentor two weeks ago myself.
This board has been very gracious during this period for me and I trust it will be for you as well.
I lost the desire to fish for a couple of weeks and am not sure it is really back yet. (even though I had fun fishing this past weekend)
This board provided some much needed relief and adventures during the past two weeks for me.
Prayers from London to you and your family.
