Good answer!  Chase bronzebacks on the upper Mississippi ~

 

My dad and hero turned 87 two months ago and we celebrated by fishing for smallmouth on Mille Lacs - and had a great day.  Fast forward to October and he was diagnosed with Leukemia.  Who knows what next year will bring, but he elected to get out and fish one more time this season - and it was a great day with 35 fish caught, an average of 18 inches, and a couple at/near 20.  A day I will never forget ~

Quality time with your dad under tough circumstances will make for great memories for you both.

Outstanding!!!  I'd give about anything to spend one more day on the water with my Old Man.

Quality time with your dad under tough circumstances will make for great memories for you both.

Well said!!!!!!  The cure isn't in the medicine...  Its In the laughter and enjoyment with family!!   Best to you and your family.

Looks like a great day. Some real toads too. Best of luck to your father and family.

Your dad looks great for 87!

Praying for the best. Kudos to you and your pops on the fish!

Those were the last fish my dad ever caught as he moved on to "better waters"  yesterday.  Hard to be planning his funeral over Father's Day weekend - but dad, we fished right up until the end!  You taught me to fish and how to live life the right way.

Rest in peace, Senior FryDog --

My condolences to you and your family.

Sorry for your and the familys loss sir. 

This truly is NOT to minimize things but they say that we are ALL going to..."shuffle off this mortal coil" someday.  Some just have a clearer picture of WHEN.  I hope your dad draws in every moment that this life has to offer!!!!

Oh, I'm terribly sorry.  I hadn't seen the later update.  I am sorry for your loss. Hope you get another chance to fish with him again someday!!!!

Condolences to you and your family.

Sorry for your loss, just be glad hes in a better place. And probably doing what he does best.
