The news is just filtering out that Flip Pallot passed away yesterday during a fairly minor surgery.
For me, Flip always represented everything that was "right" for an outdoorsman in the media. His shows were never infomercials. He always portrayed his pursuits with a reverence for nature. His hunting and fishing skills were legendary, but, he never came across as wanting to be a legend. He was always just a good old Florida boy living out his dream.
Prayers for peace and comfort for his family and friends. May this true giant rest in peace.
