I read this a few minutes ago, sad to hear this. He was a very entertaining guy to watch who loved his smokes! I still remember the episode where he was caughing up blood, so he decided to light up a cigarette to help him through it.

I heard that a little while ago.

RIP

Nothing bad to say he lived and died doing what he liked.
Kinda makes you wonder though if he had put out the butts and stayed ashore like the docs told him whether or not he would have lived any longer.


Great show.
Those guys are way up there.
Cant see how King Crab legs from AK can be $9.99 a lb here but I cant get a decent grouper filet ?

Posted in Zukes thread - BTW

If you are a big fan you will appreciate this; last year I went to Alaska to vist my best friends, and we went to Kodiak Island. He kept telling us he wanted to go to the other marina and see the boats on "The Deadliest Catch" I had no idea what he was talking about, I have never seen the show.
So we finally made it over to the marina and I was shocked. I thought it was going to be like a shrimp boat or maybe a little bigger. BUT NO, these things are huge and the process of unloading was amazing to watch.
I still have yet to see the show but I am sure it is worth watching.
Thanks for the ear,
Bubba
