We just wanted to let everyone know that one of our favorite buddy/fishermen Norm Sogioka passed away this past Friday. Many people have looked up to him as a wonderful example to emulate in the fishing community (myself included). Norm and his brother Bruce were/are very passionate regarding long-range fishing and I am very proud to say we have shared many wonderful years and memories together. Regards, Dave Rocchi, Rick Ozaki, Mark Pisano, Paul Strasser, Jeff, Judy, The Independence Crew and passengers of Westcoast Marketing Charters.
