Title: John Flores - passing
Post by: Brandon Khoo on September 18, 2012, 09:19:21 AM

Some of you may know John Flores who was a well known angler in the States and also a member here on Gtpopping. John passed away a couple of days ago after a long term illness. He was an angler to the end. He last checked into this forum on the 12th, only a few days before he passed.

We had our first Bluefin tuna trip to the Cape together and he scored that day,
we shared many memories and great time on the water, i am deeply sadden for the loss.
the fishing community lost a big figure in the Noreast, you will be missed John, RIP.
