Are you a good fishing partner?
-------------------------------
Always ready on time?

Willing to help with gas?

When was the last time you offered to help with the maintenance and work on the
boat (do you think those oil changes and annual trips to the shop are free, or
don't require any work by your fishing buddy boat owner), or do you just jump
in and want to be taken fishing?

Help with loading up the boat for the trip, and with connecting the boat
trailer to the truck?

Do you spend half the day snagged up because you insist on throwing deep divers
in 4 feet of water with 20 pound test? Make a mess on the boat with trash and
fish attractant?

Do you help setup, launch, and retrieve the boat, or is that a one man job as
you impatiently watch and smoke a cigarette? Constantly complain about how long
it takes your fishing buddy boat owner to prepare the boat for launching?

Do you help clean up and unload the boat after the trip, and park and
disconnect the trailer?

I've been both the boater, and the buddy in the back of the boat. I realize
that some of you don't know what a good partner is... hope this helps!
