ANY boat is better than no boat and I caught a ton of fish on my buddy's Bayliner. Plenty of fish actually. Any day on the water is a day well spent as long as you get home mostly dry.

That said, a buyer has choices and with all the choices available when it comes to boats, AND with the benefit of hindsight, I'd pass on a Bayliner.

If there is an open seat on your boat someday GLU, I am not too conceited or opinionated not to show up with a smile on my face and contribute to a one of those said days "well spent."

In the legend of King Arthur, the Fisher King was a renowned angler whose errant ways caused him to be struck dumb in the presence of the sacred chalice. I am no great fisherman, and a steelhead is not the covenant of Christ, but with each of these fish I am rendered speechless.
