True enough, it was even clipped as it exceeded the text limit...

I just received some sad news from an old friend. This man here was Sam. To me SAM,… is a real and true tautog LEGEND. Sadly Sam passed away, though I’m not sure when.
Definitely one of my earliest inspirations to seek trophy tog. He was doing it in the 1990’s and early 2000’s before most tog superheroes today even knew what a tog or a white crab was. This is the man along with Larry NoBoat, who pointed me to Ocean City MD.
In fact Sam boated this 21 lber in Atlantic City NJ in the mid 2000’s before most NY guys even started going to DE and MD for tog aboard the MISS AC & Captain Collette.
I raise my glass high and pour out a sip to my legendary tautog homie, RIP Brother [IMG alt="?"]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/td9/1.5/16/1f64f.png[/IMG][IMG alt="?"]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/td9/1.5/16/1f64f.png[/IMG][IMG alt="?"]https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/td9/1.5/16/1f64f.png[/IMG] Fair winds, calm seas, and nothing but shedder rock crab.

Sam Beauchamp?

Too bad. He was a pioneer in alot of ways. He fished on the Morning Star long before it was popular. Might have been the one to show them how to use white crabs...LOL.

I knew Sam going back to Sheepshead Bay. We later reconnected fishing for cod up in New Hampshire.

Great guy with a wealth of stories. We had so many acquaintances in common. Sad news indeed. RIP

And then there was one... :(

Two legends in one day.
Sad

My wife’s Uncle Butch passed away today after a very short battle with cancer. He was such a nice guy. Unfortunately I didn’t get to see him to say goodbye ?
He will be greatly missed ❤️‍??

So sorry to hear that Chevy; just hold onto the memories.

When I heard her name I immediately remembered this picture, I think it was the early 80's.
RIP

another one - my generation is slipping away.......

or as Paul Simon once put it:
*God only knows
God makes his plan
The information's unavailable
To the mortal man
We work our jobs
Collect our pay
Believe we're gliding down the highway
When in fact we're slip slidin' away*

RIP Tina & thanks for the tunes. You were one of a kind.
