Best Bass fishermen

[NIB]

Here in NJ I have had the pleasure of befriending quite a few good anglers.
One in particular Freddy Gartner,He passed this yr at 83 yrs.He fished hard all his life sacrificing most everything in the pursuit of striped bass fishing.It was in his blood.In his day he could catch a bass from a puddle..
There where some who where very good at specific types of fishing..
Mike Holowitz while some might consider him a pompous ass is as good at livelineng bunker and finding big bass as u might find.His license plate reads 9x50..Many of the old timers tell me Billy Mac Fadden was one of the best all around.Livelining,Rigged eels, Plugging..Any of U RI guys friendly With Timmy Coleman.Thats what he calls him Timmy.. Ask him about Billy..

Steve,

You too belong on the list of respected, accomplished and dedicated individuals that belong to our sport. In addition to your angling feats, many are grateful to have had you as a mentor. I think I speak for many of the guys here in saying that. Being considered among the elite to me means much more than simply the number of fish someone has caught. You've also been a great ambassador to the sport for many years in addition to your outstanding angling skills.
