Indeed, Steve had a young family... I suspect we'll here more from that
youngin' in years to come living up to his Father's legacy.
Sad news indeed about Yuri... did a little search on Google to learn
more of him tonight. Talented indeed.

Steve Irwin was a crazy guy. He always seemed like he pushed it to the
edge. I will truly miss him, he was far too young. I feel so bad for
his family.
Other sad news to keep this fly tying related…. We also lost Jurij
“Yuri” Shumakov on August 20th. He died of a heart attack while
fishing the Kola. He was my inspiration for the tube flies I like to
tie in the shows. The tubes I used in my tube fly swap were Yuri’s. He
was very helpful when I first started tying them. He was a very
generous guy with sharing his knowledge and an extremely talented fly
tier. I was very sad to hear of his passing.
