I am going to miss those nights out fishing some where any where it did not matter just as long as we could get some bait in the water.
But the last few years I was not able to get out and go fishing as much as I wanted to becouse of my parents and there health problems and I had been working on the house until my dad caught it on fire on accident.
As they always think that we would have time so that we could go out fishing again. If I had only known this was going to happen I would have gotten a hold of him soon to go fishing again.
Billy was the first person that I have ever come across that had a live of fishing like I had the only difference between me and Billy was he like to catch the fish and I did not care if I caught any fish it was more about the relaxing and enjoying nature but catching a fish was just a bonus.
My regards goes out to his family and friends all I can say is don't think of him as being gone now for he is not gone he is on a all new fishing trip and God is showing him where he can find all of those big fish that he was always looking for to catch and he will be there when we join up with him later to. Show us where to find those big fish just like he did at lake rathbun and many of othier farm pond that we had gone to fish.
Most of the farm ponds we went to was mainly for catching bait so that we could go to rathbun lake to try and catch one of them big cats that his dad would catch. Sometimes I think he was just trying to show his dad that he could catch a big cat just like his dad would catch.
I am going to miss you Billy but I will continue trying to catch that big cat for you and when I do catch them I will know that it was you that guided me to that spot to find that big cat. And don't be catching all of them big cats there save some for me to brother
