FINAL ARTICLE - Panfish - Jan 12, 2020

[Bluegill Budd]

Rick - I have always enjoyed your articles here and on the other Warm water site.
Some are warm water affectionados by location, and others, as I am, by choice.
Your guidance and expertise will be sorely missed.

Tight lines,
Clint (Bluegill Budd)

thank YOU!

The reason for the title of this article is that Neil contacted me and said that he was not going to put any more articles on the site. Jan 2020 would be the last posting of articles.
There are had not been a lot of response to the articles.
The rest of the board will continue to function to the best of the (little ) knowledge I have.

Thanks Rick!! I hope you are right. I for one enjoyed all the articles. I guess I should have commented more.

Well Rick,
Panfish was ALWAYS the first read when we came to the board. You will be sorely missed for certain! We too are guilty of non-response. Guess "extremely lazy" coincides with "old age".
Seems so sad to see one of the best boards (THE BEST) die of a thousand cuts, so to speak.
We still have a couple of your flies that we won somehow....gonna have to SAVE them now, for sure.
ALL your contributions have been grandly appreciated from these quarters, rest assured.
If ever we do our "fish across America" trip......
Be well my friend.....

Don't save them Lee. Use them.
