This hurts. I only went out with Mark once, but that trip will always be a part of the memories for my families life. It was my first trip ever to Fork in January 1995. My buddy and I had no money and we pulled together enough cash to hire Mark for the day and then sleep in the back of my jeep at the old Lunker Lodge overnight and fish the next day on our own. Full on Front on Sunday came through and Monday was blue bird and cold. We caught over 30 bass (Mark also caught a coot!) with an avg weight of 5 lbs - I was spoiled for life. But I always remember Mark and this trip every January and every October. After we returned to our parking lot hotel after a great day with Mark, I called my wife on the pay-phone to find out over that phone at the end of the building at the Lunker lodge that I was going to be a father for the first time....................we have only talked a few times over the years but Mark will always be a part of my family story. Rest in Peace and prayers to the Pack family.
PM me to let me know how it was!

I never had the HONOR to meet Mark Pack but seeing the prayers and support from the members of the TFF tells what kind of man he was. Praying for his family and friends. The Lord Jesus Christ has control

That is great story. We actually spent a couple of nights in Lunker Lodge in 1995 when my wife was pregnant. Must have a kid close to the same age.
Back to the post. RIP Mark. My prayers go out to his wife and the family. Hard to hear this news.

RIP Mr. Pack. I personally did not know you as others may have, but as all legends do, you will live on in the lives of others in the fishing world. Prayers for the family.
