That is too bad.  I always loved Wiley's column in the Trapper & Predator Caller years ago.  Ace

Too Bad

Wileys" column was always good reading as Asa said.   Wiley would help you any way he could and was always ready to help a trapper in need.

Boy oh boy , thats a name that brings back memories . I remember being 13 and 14 yrs old and laying in bed on those dang school nites , wearing my coon hunting lite , and reading those Trapper & Predator caller mags . Those were were thick mags back in the 80"s . I read Wiley"s stuff in there all time .

They had so many "Johnny Come Latelys" giving rediculous advice back 20-25 years ago in the Trapper magazine that Wiley was always a breath of fresh air with an interesting column and sound advice.  Ace
