The person I need prayers for is Mike Fischer at Hooked On Fishing in Rochester. Please don’t confuse him with Mike Smith who owns Hooked On Fishing. Mike Fischer is the person who makes the custom St. Croix rods at HOF. Mike had a heat attack. This is the second one as he had one a few years back. Mike will be under going a triple bypass surgery tomorrow [Wed] and he still needs your prayers to pull through this all.
I want to Thank all of you for your prayers. I am a big believer in prayer. My God answers prayer, maybe not always the way I want it to be but then again I don’t know the whole plan of things either. Mike shared with me last winter that he is ready to meet the Lord anytime HE wants to take him home. I’m being selfish here maybe but I don’t want that time to be now. Mike has friends and family who still need him so please pray for him to pull through this ok. Thanks. Prayers do work, they have helped, hes still alive today.
I fished my 3rd Walleye Searchers Tournament with Mike back in 1990. Mike is a guy who goes the extra mile for a person. Many years ago he was driving a big truck and was coming down a hill in the Twin Cities and the brakes failed. He had a choice to either go straight at the end of the hill and smash into alot of cars sitting at a red traffic light or turn the truck trying to make a turn which he knew would probably roll the truck but only he would be hurt bad. He chose to risk his own life instead of hurting others. He and his wife lost their home and everything back then due to his permanent injuries and unable to work. Thats the kind of person I am asking for your prayers for. I want to see my friend and yours live life longer here on earth.
Thanks, Bill
