A "serious fisherman that never took it too seriously", as a good friend mentioned, he enjoyed annual muskie trips to Canada as well as long days dipping minnows for Crappie on Truman Lake.  He was also a talented cartoonist and artist who created many different works of art.  He was a captivating storyteller and always knew a good joke.
