It has been four years today that capt. Mike Bonaffine passed, gone, but never forgotten.Tight lines in heaven big brother.Salmon fishing for me has never felt the same for me since you left us!
On Friday Jan 8th Sandy Creek in Hamlin lost a great captain,husband, father & brother and friend.Capt Mike Bonaffine lost a courageous battle with covid-19.Any one in our fishing community will understand what a tremendous loss this is. Mike placed a great value on friendship.We have fished with the same crew for 25 plus years because of him.I could not have asked for a better older brother or mentor for the great outdoors.If the song"Mr Breeze" by Lynard Skynyrd comes on the radio,smile cause Capt Mike is in heaven fishing his butt off.Tight lines forever big brother,rest in piece.
