Jim Mcilroy lost his fight with cancer last night. Before GPS,Spot Lock, Down Scan, and Livescope, Jim found and named almost every good spot on Roberts. He dominated every tournament he fished in the nineties. Yes there really was a 31 Hole. Jim found it and there were more tournaments won there than any hole will ever produce. I'm sure Jim and Mike Green are looking at a topo map right now.

RIP Jim. I fished with and against Jim and Mike Green many times. They were indeed legends in the early days of RayBob.

So long old friend. Jim was the original guy that found 31 hole on Ray Roberts. Lake was high and it was so named because of depth. Lots of memories.
Some people go to church and think about fishing. Some go fishing and think about God.
