For those of us who fished around the Port Charlotte FL area, there was a local bait and tackle store named Fishin Frank's. It was totally demolished by a pickup truck accident and burned to the ground. It was an institution, with locals, snowbirds, young and old. You can read about it on line. But please take a moment to remember this good man. Thanks, Bill P.

I live about 2 miles from there. It was a real shock to see it burn down by DUI driver who managed to "launch" his pick up into the air and into the roof of Fishin Frank's. He will soon be selling bait and terminal tackle in a nearby vacant business the owner is letting him use rent free until he rebuilds. A real "institutional location" down here.
He'll be back!
