Met the old man many nites on the water. He knew what he was doing for sure. He helped me get my rig setup for stalking. Would say try this or that and improve on it. Saw him on Wateree one morning while striper hunting. He couldn’t talk much for having to pull in fish. I asked and he gladly told me what I was doing wrong. I tried his way and it was dead on for that day! If you wanted to know something bout fishing all you did was ask. Haven’t seen his partner OT in couple years. Last time we met he said he had moved to California. Never said why. The only thing I believe he ever changed on The Beast was his motor. He put a new Yamaha on shortly after he got sick the first time. Don’t know what happened to The Beast but there is a boat at the marine dealership on Red River road that sure looks like her. Yes sir we lost a dictionary on fishin when he passed. And a legend!
