Sean McCulley, who works at Jersey Hooker Outfitters, a local bait and tackle shop in Brick, said he knows the family. Narby's father, David Narby, who frequented the tackle shop, is an experienced boat captain who works in the Merchant Marines, McCulley said.
McCulley said David would come in, often with one or both of his sons, and buy tackle such as ballyhoo to take offshore fishing for tuna on his AquaSport called Kaboom.
“There’s just so much misinformation going around right now about what happened or what they were doing from people who don’t have all the facts,” McCulley said. “It’s very unfortunate what happened and it’s very sad.”
