I am saddened to write we have lost Cooknfish. Details are sketchy at this point. He has been a friend to many here for as long as the site has been around.
Rest in Peace Mark and thank you for all the fond memories. Give Jay a hug for us.

This is very sad news. I was told that he was found in his apartment by the St. Petersburg police.
R.I.P. Mark. You will be missed and always remembered.

That is very sad news, Mark was a true ambassador for the sport we all love. A man I was honored to know. he was always a positive and sharing guy, a man who will be missed by all who had the pleasure to know him.
Rest in Peace my friend

Very sad, he was one hell of a guy. . One of the best fisherman I have ever had the pleasure of fishing with. He will truly be missed.

Re: We have lost an old friend
We lost a good one today....Mark will be sorely missed. Not only was he knowledgeable, but he had a gentle spirit about him that made him accessible by anyone and he was always willing to share what he knew with anyone. I will never forget him for that.

Re: We have lost an old friend
Still cannot fathom this news. He was a true ambassador and I am proud to have called him a friend.
