Re: Proud of NJF today.... RIP LAB
Setting: Dark parking lot, 3:30am 15degrees in december up pulls a pickup with DMX or Biggie blasting who gets out, a 5 foot,50 year old grey haired white guy & says " yo Philly get my stuff" I am going to miss that so much
I had posted about buying a new fluke rod on here back in like 2010 or so next week me & moe went out on the monger when we docked Mike was there with 2 really nice bucktailing rods of his & said " here ya go kid don't waste your money but i had to give her 1 too so i know they would be used right"
before I had a cell phone whenver the Devils beat the flyers he would call & leave a message on my answering machine then it was a text.
I catch my 12.2 on the monger a little before PUOSU, he is at the dock with the cawfee & before we even are tied up he yells "12lber your odds just went to 1,000:1 you bl*ew ur lo@d way to early kid, thats lack of experience!"
Night ling trip on the k3 way back & I am talking to him about how I feel like I'm f#cking up taking so long to get through college & his response "to long what are you 23, I got holes in my underwear older then you"
Everytime someone new was around he would bring up me being from Philly & say " I spent a year in Philly 1 weekend." somehow it never got old
Like I told VInnie(Sportfishingusa) he woulda given us the shirt off his back but then laughed as either of us tried to fit in it he was a 1 of a kind person & we are all lucky for having been able to call him our friend.
