In the words of Ike... I am lucky enough to live in a time where I'm fishing against the best fisherman to walk the earth. ( i may be a bit off on the quote but..) He is the best out there, its a fact you cannot deny. He motivates me to be a better angler, competitor etc. I'm sure he has the same effect on countless other anglers.
