Mooch was the reason I got into kayak fishing. I remember his warmth and willingness to help me get into the sport.

RIP brother.

Pinky bump!

dats some OG sh*t right there. Glad to see the first piece I made for NCKA still looking good and in good company.
I can still remember taking those to the Fred Hall show at the Cow palace. We were all captivated by the Russian archery contortionist's performance :smt003

Missing this guy. I felt like Mooch was with me yesterday in Santa Cruz. The crew couldn't even scratch up decent rockfish. After all these years he is still right, there are no fish in Santa Cruz!

In Loving Memory of Mooch, Eelmaster, Shicken, and Cabeza De Martillo

I started kayak fishing to get away from most of you...

Only had the privilege to run into him personally a few times, but he was a good friend to Marv and like an "older brother".

I did the same thing Rock Hopper, with the same outcome. Guys at work asking "you ok man" It did bring back some good old memories seeing names we haven't seen in a while. We have sure lost a few Great people, and they are truly missed.
