Wiley started fishing the old pier in the early seventies , he always had a smile on his face and was the kind of guy you would like to share the rail
with. He spent many an hour on that pier .Seems like the good ones depart way to soon

Sorry for your loss.
I’ll be sliding into town March 10-14. Can you have it warm and sunny for me then? And also, how about having the fish biting??? :D
