[Colin Murphy]

Very upsetting news that Adam passed away.My brother and I went out with Adam in Late september and he got me the biggest muskie of my life,a 49 3/4 inch out of the river.Everything about that day on the water was great.He taught us a a handful of stuff that I definetly wont forget.My bro & I have been out with a few guides before but none like Adam LaPorte. Adam will be very missed by the twins, Talor &Colin Murphy

Well, its been a year since Adam and Bailey have past. It has been a tough year, I sit here this morning not really knowing what to write, not sure if I can. A person trys to pick himself up and dust himself off but you can't. I miss standing in my kitchen, bullshitting about nothing having a beer and hearing that laugh (those of you that know,...know I miss going out fishing in the mornings before work during the week, pounding out a limit of eyes by 6:30am and being to work by 7:00am. I miss sitting at Vermilion Dam Lodge, after getting beat up by 3 footers all day in the end of October. I miss grouse hunting with Bailey, driving two rut trails in September. I miss winter snow storms when school was canceled and Adam would take off work to stay home with the kids. One wonders why, why does it happen, why so fast why so soon. I look back and am thankfull for the short time all the memories and friends that I've made because of him. You are still missed buddy.
