Returned from Nicaragua where I caught some nasty needlefish, good sized bonefish and a dozen huge snook with a wet fly wading off of Corn Island. I used Cousin Jerry's gear and then spent few weeks in Cali Columbia going through the old newspaper microfish only to learn that one of the South Florida drug dealers was buried in a Jewish cemetery on the outskirts of the city. At least that is what the obituary read, but I could not find any trace of a gravetstone or record of burial. |
