Tim was a good friend to me early in my striper career. Taught me a lot. Had some great nights with him and "he who cannot be mentioned" at "The Hill" and West. I think another legend and a good friend of mine, Al Pellini died the same year.

Where the hell does the time go?

Timmy would have loved the nickname "He who cannot be mentioned".

Timmy coined some interesting names for his friends:
"Steve McAnxious" for McKenna
"Pat of Bait" for Pat Abate

Loved his writing style.

Dennis, Timmy taught me about using LMB purple worms for Stripers. I haven't in years but they were killer.

Tim

Fished Weekapaug beaches with him more than a few times.
My good fishing friend found Tim the morning he passed. Think about it every time I go there. RIP.

Time sure does fly, and lives go by.

Make sure to spend good quality time, hopefully unhooking fish for each other, with the people important to you, and with those you might be important to as well.

RIP Tim. Never fished with him, being from LI and then Nantucket, now cape cod, but I read everything he wrote that I could get. Learned a lot. Thanks Tim!

A good run is better than a bad stand!
