That is awesome !

That is a good story to hear Nebe. It is always a great feeling when you treat people decent and even if they ar worth 14 million or it costs you a few bucks. In know I can be a hard guy from time to time............. but occasionally I get a chance to do somthing for someone that needs and apprciates it, so much better feeling than being a prick,lol.

As for the 1.5 billion even if I won my plans a re so specific for the up coming season and only stuff I really want to do myself I dont thing it would have made me feel as though I would be ready anyway...........as a matter of fact it would have distracted me from my fishing goals for sure. Not saying it would have not been welcome....just saying.
