    I remember Mike's boat wrap. Always brought a tear to my eye. Don't guess it still has the wrap on it does it?

    World would be a much better place if we had more people willing to stand up and be proud to fly the flag. Instead we have people being glorified for kneeling during the national anthem........Sad times. Need more real heros and men of honor.

    I had the pleasure of fishing with Mike as his coanlger around 2010, after the 2008 economic collapse. We talked about the fishing industry and sponsorships. He admitted to me it had been MANY years since he owned a boat. Everything he fished out of was a memo deal/dealership demo. In fact, the boat we fished from that day (major tour event) was a borrowed dealership boat (stratos 201 at the time) and he was ticked it had small graphs with no GPS.

    Anyway, it was eye opening at the least.....but an enjoyable day.
