Farwell to a great friend

Sad news this morning our good friend Skip Baldwin pass on this morning. Skip was the mentor for alot of the great Guides & fisherman along the Oregon-California Coast, his knit picky ways put him in the Master Guide List as well as any Professional list that you could come up with. Those of us that were close to him knew him as a hard charging Guide with a very aggressive stlye, which made him what he was. We all shared in the good times and the bad times, but one thing for sure that I'll always remember is Skip on the oars in the drift boat saying with a hard voice & a grin "Butt that fish Boss, or I'll butt it for you" I'll miss you good friend and tight lines..........................
