My friends are spontaneous to say the least. I was asked to go to the boat show Friday afternoon with a friend of mine, he said he just wanted to walk around and drink a few beers and look at boats. I got tied up with work and had to cancel on him.
To give a history on my Bud, he has never owned a Bass boat in his life much less own a good rod and reel combo.
To my surprise he called today to tell me he is the proud owner of a Ranger bass boat.
I said your kidding. What size is it I asked? I don't have a clue he said, they tried to sell me a big motor, but I just got the 250 instead.
What about electronics and trolling motor I asked? They said they were the best, he said, a 10 inch screen and a 8 inch screen that can downs an I think. Trolling motor is supposed to be the best.
What else did you get on it? Some kind of shallow anchoring system, there are 2 of them on the back of the boat. I said those are called Power Poles. He said that that sounded familiar.
What brand motor did you get? I got a Mercury. 4 stroke or 2 stroke? 4stroke..
He said I really wanted you to go and show me what to get. I said you did pretty good without me.
Can't wait to take it out and show him how to use it.

Yea he has done well in life. He was a single dad most of his adult life and has a grown son. I think him and his son wants to try this Bass fishing addiction for awhile. He probably don't have Ken A money but he is doing ok.

No he has no idea whats in store there. I think I can help him out with his choices in that department.

Nothing wrong with that. Good friend to have. At least he is humble enought to realize he doesn't know it all and wants you to help.
