As
the BASS ZONE On Location staff was
traveling from Lake Champlain to Buffalo, we
learned the sad news that veteran outdoor writer, Tim Tucker, was killed in a car accident today near his home in Florida.
Alabama outdoor writer, Alan Clemons,
contacted Mark later this afternoon
and confirmed the news. Tim was
traveling from a baseball game with his son, Kyle and another boy, when the accident occurred. Details are incomplete. Kyle was injured and in the hospital, but the other boy apparently is OK. Neither Tim’s wife, Darlene, or their daughter was in the accident.
Although the story was an early file, the Gainesville Sun ran the story of the crash on its web site, but with no victim identification.
Visit

and there is information about the crash and a photo of the highway backup.
Tim was a good friend and his contributions
to the sport of bass fishing can not be
replaced by anyone.
Tim,
we will miss you.
More
info to come.
