cadman Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 My prayers go out to the family. Bruce and I exchanged info on how to powder paint. I made a red and blue spinnerbait with a white star on the body and 3 stars on the main blade. Bruce always liked that bait. I made it as a tribute to a 4th of July day several years ago, which was posted here. I believe he was a Vet. RIP Bruce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reeves Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I met Bruce at the TU meet a couple of years ago. He was an addicted wire-bender for sure, loved going after those toothy muskies. He was and ex-marine switched over to Air Force and had a million stories to tell about his years of service. He will be missed greatly. Prayers to the family. RIP Bruce . . . . Semper Fi!
