Message from Bob - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Chuck D · 04-22-2020, 07:05 AM

I was lucky enough to know Bob ever since he graciously started inviting kayak fisherman to his paradise. He was one of the most selfless, kind and generous individuals I ever encountered. He cared about everyone that traveled with him and had a passion for life. I met many friends over the years inlay his retreat
and learned many life lesson through my Baja adventures. I managed to get this clip on a freezing cold New Years Eve in 2015. A trip made by myself, Bob and Kevin. You make it down there at the right time of the year and the WSB are popping! I may never meet a man like Bob again, but feel so blessed to have made his acquaintance in the peak of my kayak fishing adventures. You will be missed Bob, but never forgotten!

Wow. Seems like he was quite a guy. Never met him, but I can agree 100% with his mindset. "We all work too hard and most of us don't get to play enough." So true. Bummer I never got to meet him and sorry for the loss to all his family and friends. Great reminder that we all need to get out there and enjoy life while we can!

I never got to meet BOB but always heard nothing but positive things about him and he always seemed to be in good spirit no matter what life through at him! At least he passed away at his "happy place"! RIP SIR!

I always enjoyed Bob's posts and often fantasized about making the trip down there. Sad that I never made the opportunity to meet, RIP Bob.
