PaBasser Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 First I heard of his passing. He will be missed for sure. I read his book, " Think Like a Fish" also. After reading the book I felt like I knew him forever. I`ve read the book three times, now I`ll have to read it again. I use to watch his fishing show all the time. I`ve learned so much from Tom Mann, he was one of a kind. PaBasser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lure--Prof Posted February 17, 2005 Report Share Posted February 17, 2005 It is a good book, Nathan, just like Tom himself, honest & straightforward...I just recently had pulled out my old Tom Mann Humminbird Field Test Staff patch and cleaned it...I'd say most all of us had learned something from him, whether we realize or not; such was the imact not only of his commercial products, but the fishing methods which inspired them that filtered throughout the bass fishing industry in its seminal years. He was one fine man. (and one Helluva lurehead!) Dean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
