There are many brands of boats used in professional fishing. You will see Ranger, Stratos, Triton, Phoenix, Skeeter, BassCat, and I have even seen a Bullet out there. I'm sure I have left out others too.

Stratos and Ranger are owned by same company.

if I am not mistaken he's the only previous Stratos sponsored pro that retained his sponsorship w/Stratos when the Genmar/Platinum Equity deal went down involving Ranger, Stratos, Champion, and Triton.

I'm sure you know Stratos, Ranger, Triton, and the now defunct Champion are all under the same group.

What's even more ironic is the boat says Stratos but it's a Champ. So he's with the same company name but not running the hull he's used to.

Hmmm .... unless he has changed hulls in the past 10 days or so this sure looks like a Stratos hull to me, 201 XLE Evolution, take 9/20/12 Wheeler lake.
