Seems to me you could apply this reasoning and come up with many different names depending on who you know.
I would apply the above and still come up with Flaptail this year as he embodied all of the above...nice person, angler, and ambassador to the sport just to name a few attributes.

That is where YOU the nominator, can apply your criteria to AOY. For some, it is pure fishing greatness, others responsibility to the fishing community, others may choose other factors. What one person may define as the necessary qualities to "award" are different from others. My only desire is that people make a sincere and deserving recommendation, instead of a gag or farce recommendation.
