frazerp Posted July 28, 2017 Report Share Posted July 28, 2017 I was lucky enough to have him teach us w/The DC Longcasters back in the day. A most graceful caster, smart & a good teacher - I learned a lot from him. RIP Neil ... Morone Saxatilis... God put them in the Surf to take them, not in the freaking boat!

Mangrove Jack Posted July 29, 2017 Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 Saddened to hear this. Have heard so much about him especially when he was involved with Penn's surf casting conventional reels, I would have loved to have met him. May he RIP.

oldgoat Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Neil was a true giver. Be it on you tube or in person. While visiting daughter #1 in the U.K. I bought a Zziplex from Tony's tackle in Bournemouth and the only one he had was his wrapped by Neil. (so he said) Have talked on line and viewed his old VCR tape on casting back in the day. A true giver. May you rest in peace Neil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frazerp Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Is that tape transferable to video or is there a similar out there on the net ??? Morone Saxatilis... God put them in the Surf to take them, not in the freaking boat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan C Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 So sad to hear of Neils passing. His generosity in sharing information has benifited so many, all around the world. That is a remarkable lagacy to leave behind, and one that I am truely thankful for... RIP I'd love to see his vid. I have been trying to track down a copy for some time.

Not sure if I had it or saw some else's film. I'll have to look around and see what the girls didn't toss out. Been awhile since I've seen film instead of disks.

AtTheBar Posted August 7, 2017 Report Share Posted August 7, 2017 Sad to hear this as well, the last few years had been tough for him. He will be missed. :rav: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim DE Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Man, I knew he was ill but I just now saw this..... Neil and I spent many hours talking over the years he was with Penn UK. He assisted me with getting my first Zippy and the first dialed factory magged 525 tournamag. I met him in Philly years ago just before he and Penn UK had a parting of the ways and we had dinner where he gave me one of his UMIII tournament casting reels which I still have and which I never casted. Neil and I struck it off good right from the get go and I always liked and respected him as a person and a distance caster. When he moved to Cyprus we sort of drifted apart with our conversations but I knew he was not well and chose to live out his life in Cyprus. Very sad to see his passing and pray for his wife and family....... God Bless you my friend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
