Lost the Man That Introduced Me To The Big Lake


Recommended Posts

Got some sad news this morning. Capt. Ray Donetti from Any Second out of Catfish Creek passed away last night after battling cancer. If you have fished Mexico Bay, well then you know Ray. He took it upon himself to teach me (and many others) how to fish the lake and I made the mistake of allowing him to take me on a Salmon trip. After landing my first King, I was hooked. 20 years later I am still addicted and I owe that to Ray. He would help anyone especially when it came to fishing and was a great man. I can truly say he will sorely be missed and there will not be a trip where I go out of the cut at Catfish and onto the big lake that I won't think about Ray. Rest in Peace Donut.

So many good people come into our lives that are struck down with that horrible disease. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Ray's Family. I heard about him through out the years up there but, never had the pleasure of meeting him. Steve..."a survivor"
