Please keep Jim Holland in your thoughts and prayers

Post by Rusty Spinner » Wed Apr 27, 2022 9:32 am

Many of you know Jim Holland, co-owner at Shannon's Fly & Tackle in Califon above the Ken Lockwood Gorge. Jim is currently battling cancer and could really use everyone's thoughts and prayers for this tough fight. He is undergoing treatments at Morristown Memorial and is very happy with his medical team. I will keep everyone in the loop. We have circled the wagons, so to speak, to cover the shop and guide trips while Jim is away from the shop.

Sorry to hear-I spent a lot of time at the shop when I lived in the area and he was always as enthusiastic about trout fishing as I was! Praying he pulls through this and gets back out on the water!
