BassResource.com Administrator Glenn Posted December 20, 2011 BassResource.com Administrator Posted December 20, 2011 We are terribly saddened tonight to learn that industry legend Ray Murski, owner of Strike King Lure Company passed away today in a car accident. Such a terrible loss for the fishing industry. He was an incredibly talented person who raised the bar in fishing tackle and gear. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family and friends, and especially the Strike King family. Quote
jeremyt Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Wow, that is horrible. I will definitely be keeping Mr. Murski's family in my thought and prayers. Quote
McAlpine Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 That is terrible news. Our thoughts will be with Mr. Murski's family. Very sad. Quote
Super User NorcalBassin Posted December 20, 2011 Super User Posted December 20, 2011 Sad to hear... sounds like he unfortunately drifted into the other lane of a 2 lane highway and collided head on. You just never know when your time is going to be up. Thoughts and prayers for his family... I can only imagine how difficult this is with the addition of it being this time of year. A buddy of mine's dad passed away Christmas morning a couple years ago, and it's a tough day for them to say the least. Quote
