I had met him in different events.

At the Redondo white seabass grow out pens.

As the Turks would say, “may he rest in light”.

Tony made a playlist for the WSB grow-out pens, featuring you on one segment.

How is it that two (Bob, and now Tony) of the top 4 contributors to the BWE forum are now deceased? Looking back at Tony’s posts, they were awesome! Many catches set a high bar for inspiration. On top of that, Tony’s youtube channel shared glimpses of the many BWE characters.

Thank you Tony -- Perhaps I won’t feel like a total stranger when I finally make it back to kayak fish SoCal? Condolences to his friends and prayers for Tony, his father and the surviving family. May Tony RIP and always enjoy a ful-rac.

This is shocking, sad news. Tony was bedrock, such a solid guy. I looked forward to crossing his path. He was always nice with me, I never saw the rough edges that he saved for his close friends.

RIP to one of the best.
