This was posted on another board and I feel the family and friends of the loved ones can use as many prayers as possible.

I know nothing of the event other than what I found on the newspaper and what was posted.

Can we get someone to confirm that it was Larry Flak?

Unfortunately the news is true. I spoke with our fishing buddy, Chris Mayo, who confirmed that Larry Flak Flakman was killed in that accident last night. He and the others were fishing in an oilman's tournament.

It is tough to lose a buddy like that. He and I have been to Venezuela twice peacock bass fishing and fishing together numerous other times at Matagorda, PINS, Goose Island and Baffin Bay. It is the ultimate shock at this point.

My deepest sympathies go out to Ms. Deana right now. I can't even imagine how she is handling this.

In happier times at Lake Guri, Venezuela

OMG!!! I am shocked. May he rest in peace and may his family find comfort that he died doing what he loved, fishing.

Prayers and thoughts here...
