The inspiration for this forum
Yesterday I towed Jacob Hayes and his buddy to the ramp. His trolling motor ran out of juice. I seen them desperately rowing their boat making little headway so I asked them if they wanted a tow. They were younger guys and certainly woulda made it back rowing, but they were getting tired fast. So Abbey and I helped them out.

Jacob joined the site and here's what he said in a PM to me: "Thank you for towing me and my friend back to the docks. I plan on getting a second battery or a motor soon so it wont happen again to me at least and maybe I can pass on the favor to someone else sometime."
I did a good deed.
But the real inspiration for creating this forum is right here:

Do you notice who was driving the boat? It's our 2013 Crappie.com man of the year himself, Billbob. This assured me all the more that we chose the right person for last years Man Of The Year.
I've fished with Billbob many times. And every time we seen someone in distress Billbob did not even think about it. His reaction was automatic. He went to help. I can not even remember how many times.
Thank you for your inspiration Billbob. I'm just doing my part and "paying it forward".
