So sad to hear. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. He was a pioneer and teacher in our sport.

Hate to hear this. A sad day in the bass fishing world. He really knew his stuff. He may be gone now but his teachings will live on for generations to come. R.I.P. Guido my sincerest condolences and prayers to his family and friends.

Sad to hear this. Guido was one of my early heroes.  I got to meet him years ago. Very nice guy and a great fisherman

Sadness....there's never a good way to go...but cancer sucks!!  

True legend 

I missed this and posted about it in the tournament section . A fishing hero .As a fellow Missourian he is my Mickey Mantle .

RIP Mr Hibdon. Condolences to his family and friends. One of my favorite "early" guys. I'm going to dig out some of my bugs and catch a few in his honor.

 

God grant that I live to fish until my dying day,
And when it comes to my last cast I humbly pray
When in the Lords safe landing net I am peacefully asleep,
That in his mercy I am judged as good enough to keep.

The King of Finesse fishing...won BASS tournaments using spinning gear with line 4,6 and 8#'s. Then the Guido Bug hits the stores and a new wave begins. Read his stuff and use his techniques.

 

Truly a GIANT in the BASS fishing world...

RIP

That's a shame....prayers to his family and friends.

 

When I was in younger, Guido Hibdon was the winner of the first Classic I remember watching/following.

RIP to a true legend in our sport!  Prayers and condolences to his family and friends! 

R.I.P. He was indeed one of the good ones! Prayers for his family!

This is truly sad news.  All of us Missouri bass anglers take a lot of pride in Guido, his son Dion, and the story of the Guido bug.  

Very sad news...My condolences to his family, friends, and fans.

Truly Sad .... R.I.P. Mr. Hibdon.

Guido was one of the real ground breakers in bass fishing. He used a spinning rod when many anglers didn't even own one. I'm saddened by his passing. He does define the term legend.

RIP Guido Hibdon. Your family legacy still lives on.
