Thread: R.I.P Frank Helton

Calvin posted on facebook that the old salt Frank Helton passed away. I know most of the people on this forum are not familiar with Mr. Helton, but the few times I got to fish with him were a pleasure. Seeing him on his power chair with a horn, umbrella, and his ling rod was quite commical but that man knew how to cobia fish. Good luck to you sir on that great pier in the sky.

Yep, Frank was the man when it came to Cobia. I watched is video when he said cobes would come in herds back in his day. He will be missed and not forgotten.

Prayers sent to family and friends....what a GREAT lose to the fishing community....met him once and what a pleasure it was for me....talked to him here and there on the various forums.....so sad . he did live a full and fulfilling life.... that I can only wish for
