When I sat down to write this article today I noticed I was having
difficulty getting started. I knew what I wanted to say, but the words
wouldn’t come. I realized that there was something else that
needed to be said first. Those fishermen among you have known Bob Marcum
well. He has been our resident fishing expert at Sportsworld for as
long as most of us can remember. I have known Bob for about twenty
years, long before I moved to Ely in 2001. Bob kept me and the rest
of the guys in the Las Vegas Fly Fishing Club informed and updated
on a regular basis concerning the fishing on the lakes in the Ely area.
Bob and I shared the the same passion in our hearts for fishing and
the joy it brings with it. I treasure the discussions and stories we
had with one another over the years. There is no “filling of
Bob’s shoes”, and I would never assume to try. I wish him
the best, and many more fish in the boat!!!!!!!
