If you are referring to Rene, Sharkboy, it is my understanding that a lot of people wanted his daughter to give them Rene's reels. Rene didn't raise any suckers, and from what I know, she sold the rods & reels. He always taught her not to let people take advantage of her. She now has a degree in banking/finance!

His daughter was always a good kid & a source of tremendous pride for Rene, may he rest in peace.
