I don't know if anyone watches this show, but i guess three packs of smokes a day catch up to.

welcome to two weeks ago :wink:

Really? lol i thought he was just in a coma two weeks ago.. damn i just found out.

Edit - Hmm article date is feb. 10th.

yes 3 packs a day will kill you!!! i love that show and yes it's old news :mrgreen:

I'm surprised he lasted as long as he did after the blood clot...I guess that's what happens when don't take care of yourself.

good show sad for phil but .... Northwestern FTW!

Yea that really sucks, got no one to blame but himself though... R.I.P

I havent watched the show in a while, whatever happened to his son? Is he still fishing? And did he eventually take over his dad's boat?

Both of his sons are still on the boat. Last year when Phil was off the boat with the blood clot issue, he had Murray captain the boat for him. I'm interested to see who will captain the boat this year,

From the article below: http://www.fancast.com/blogs/2010/tv...mpid=FCST_hero

Don't feel bad, I just learned about this yesterday too. I have to say I do feel bad though, I am a fan of the show.

His son Jake, which is the younger one right?.. anyways he just got busted for a DUI, so i dunno how that will effect his position on the boat.

Yea, Jake is the younger one, and he has been fishing with his dad longer. And yes, from what I read it was DUI + hit and run.
