    There are a few guys I would buy their boats. Ike is not one of them.

    Never cared for Ike at all, But I watched the whole video. Seems like he's mellowed out quite a bit in his old age. I was quite surprised.

    Old age??? What does that make a good portion of us?

    It's not the size of the waves, but the interval between them that pounds the crap out of you. I know. I go out on Lake Ontario often at 70 years old.

    Ain't that the damn truth. Some lakes they stack up way worse than others. Felt like I was riding a bull today going back to the ramp before a bad storm with high wind and the high winds hadn't even got there yet.

    Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience. Just smile and walk away.

    I couldn’t imagine being his co angler during that open. I remember reading about that in his book

    I can’t imagine Ike running that hard in those waves. He’s going to be a crippled old man getting beat up like that.

    It's all about the clicks. He knows he's probably not going to win another tournament, so may as well use the time to produce content. On-line pays better now. He knows it, just like Randy B.
    Hang on. I'll help you in 77 minutes.

    Just doing what everyone else does. I like watching a lot of different anglers videos on YouTube where they travel and prepare for each tournament.

    Great video. Love seeing the stuff that fans don't know about.

    IMO for engine longevity, especially in 40º water, it's important to let the engine warm up to temperature before hammering down at WOT. I don't know of one single pro who does this. Their 1 year old boat has 5-10 years worth of your average weekender's boat.
