    He was definitely a nice guy and loved to show people how to fish just as much as he liked to fish .
    RIP Mr JB

    I'm glad we made the trip and got to meet him. Still using one of his poles and it will give me the blues a little when I do.

    Thanks for the info Bruce and JR. Bruce I'll never forget the day you and I spent with him at LSU. I can still hear him telling me to "keep your elbow against the wall". May he RIP and find a fishing hole in heaven.

    My reel was loose on my jig pole , so I went to his shop. He fixed it on the spot no questions asked...this was 6-8 months ago...I enjoyed talking with him,quite a character and always willing to share his knowledge.He will be missed.
