Saying goodbye is very difficult
« on: March 08, 2017, 01:32:52 PM »
Saying goodbye is very difficult

With great sadness, due to financial restraints, I must say goodbye to something that has been dear to my heart for over forty years...fishing with Hubbard's Marina.
 My career started with the man himself, Captain Wilson Hubbard. Today, the legacy continues with Captain Mark Hubbard, and son, Captain Dylan Hubbard. Family tradition is still very strong and it shows from the office to each and every boats. Captain Wilson Hubbard would be very proud.
It has been to me a great privilege to share, first hand, what our state has to offer the dedicated anglers of, not only this nation, but the entire world.
Hopefully, some day soon, I will, once again, be in a position to share pictures and action packed videos from such far away places as the famous Florida Middle Grounds. Only time will tell. I am leaving the door wide open!
In the mean time, I will be sharing in the woods pictures & videos of wild boar hunting in Florida.
If anyone would like to be placed on my hunting mailing list, let me know. That way you will automatically receive all of my reports. My E. mail address:   tharb333@aol.com
Fishing, as well as hunting, have been parts of my life for over sixty years. In addition, sharing what I have been so fortunate to have been a part of is to me a great honor. I sincerely hope you have enjoyed sharing in my adventures as much as I have enjoyed bringing them to you. And I thank you from the bottom of my heart for allowing me to be part of your life.
Saying goodbye is very difficult
Best to one & all!   Bob Harbison

that definitely does suck but all that means is to find another way to enjoy fishing.  When I parked my boat in the driveway, I started surf fishing and went back to doing some freshwater as well while throwing in a party boat trip every now and again. As long as the days out are nice, I'm happy. Even happier when I catch fish. I'm sure we'll be seeing some more fish pics from

 clp Thank you so much. I really thought my sharing days were over. Now, fortunately, it looks like things are beginning to work out.
Hope to be in a position to be back soon & often.
With a little luck I will try my best to be on and share a 44 hour snapper trip coming up this Friday, 3/10.
Thank you again. Knowing so many are on my side means more to me than you will ever know. Thank you!

Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.

 clp    Guys/Girls, when I wrote that 'goodbye' message I thought my beloved sharing of our wonderful sport had come to an end.  At 75 I felt like a broken old man that no one really cared about. Boy, did I quickly find out differently. The overwhelming support coming in from all over the nation is appreciated beyond imagination.

"Your reports,pictures, and videos will surely be missed. Thanks for all that you shared with us in the past."

Captain Mark & Captain Dylan Hubbard, owners of family owned & operated Hubbard's Marina, quickly joined the 'Bob support team.'
With such support there is NO WAY I could stop sharing what our great sport, our great state, and our great nation, have to offer the peoples of this wonderful country. As such, as we speak, I am preparing for another 44 hour full moon snapper trip on the Florida Fisherman ll. Take a look at what we did on the last full moon trip:

Watch out fish; Bob and the gang are back.
  Thank you from the bottom of my heart!  Bob H.

Yes sir, it's hard to keep a good man down. Great to hear that your reports and pics will continue. Just watch how many of them good looking meal pics you send. I gain weight just looking at them.  TT^
