Lindy Roberts announced his retirement this morning--22 years of guiding! He has many friends, and I know we all wish him good health. JB

Linday was a regular guest on Saturday and Sunday morning on KRLD for fishing reports. (5:00AM+ He reported on Ray Roberts for the most part but fished all over Texas and LA and would give reports for those locations as well.
Wish you the best Lindy.

I wish him all the best to.But why the odd topic? I recognized it as being about Lindy Roberts as soon as I read the title. It's kind of his motto and something he said every week on the radio to sign off his Roberts on Roberts fishing reports. Best of luck to you Lindy.

I knew it was about Lindy as soon as I saw the topic. He don't like everybody, but if he likes you, he's a good SOB to have as a friend. I would say he'll be missed, but he really isn't going anywhere. I look forward to fishing with him soon out here on Sandlin or down at the coast.
That Navionics chip is sitting here on the shelf for you Lindy.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2019/09/full-13-25328-gco.jpg)

It was always fun to talk to Lindy at the Arlington show. Opinions were something he was never short on.  Best wishes to him.

Lindy is a good friend. He has some serious health problems, but I think it best if he responds if he wants to. He will still go to the meat market Saturday mornuings. Dicky Grant is still around--waiting for it to dry out so he can start his new home on the old family place up in Clarksville. Lindy and Dicky been friends a long time. JB

I immediately recognized the title as well. My wife actually told me about his announcement. She listens to the fishing reports on her way to work on Saturday mornings.
If I'm not mistaken, he also always said " and ladies, we're never more than 5 minutes form a bathroom"......or something close to that.
anthonyhicks101 for president! Greatness right there.

I knew who it was about and I ain't in the Dallas radio market. I do get the Texas Fishing and Outdoors Show (with Brian Hughes) on local radio though.
