If It Floats, It Boats

Don’t judge a boat by its shape…

Some folks see a crumpled hull and think time to call it quits, but die hard anglers see it as a minor design flaw. It just doesn’t matter if the boat got into a wreck or just had a boat ramp issue, because one thing is clear–it didn’t stop this guy from hitting the water. Fishing isn’t about the shine of your boat, it is about that need to cast a line. So yeah, maybe the boat is more like a crumpled piece of paper, but when the fish are biting, you roll it in, crank it up, and send it anyway.
