JDarr: legendary ho

I believe JDarr is a future challenger to the champion's belt of boat ho's. Here’s why:
If he guided drift boat trips, he would have clients row = Paid ho.
If he invited you to go for a float in his new Clackacraft, you will end up rowing his boat for him. =Hoing himsef/self ho
This master boat ho has been known to ho in 2 boats the same day = Busy ho.
He will travel the northwest all the way to Alaska even crossing Canadian borders to ride shotgun in your boat = International ho.
Forgot the oars and he still convices you go anyways (true story) = unsafe ho.
Cancel on him and he still shows up = Determined ho.
He'll even ho a ride on the back of a 6' pontoon on the Kispiox = Talented ho.
He’ll steal a seat from right under you = dirty ho
He’ll tell you you’re rowing it wrong = angry ho
From the Queets to 5th street. From Alsea to B.C. From the Alagnak to the Smith, there is nowhere he can’t ho. If you can row it, he will ho it.

So, in closing, take a minute to remember this ho during your holiday festivities and crack one open for all his hard work:)

JDarr, Legendary boat ho

Undisputed CHampion? ...not even close.

JDarr is a more of a "B-HIT"..."Boat Ho in Training"

We have waaaay more experienced and talented boat hoes on this board.

We have the original Boat Ho- GutZ. This guy coined the term boat ho and has been ho'ing rides since JDarr was a diaper-ho.

GutZ had a network of rides on a rolodex, chronologically sorted by fishing seasons detailing who had the best boat for that time of year. You'd find him ho ing from the Columbia to the Hoh, Puget Sound to the Sol-Duc. he'd be down at Shilshole in the dark ho'ing rides from strangers, and getting to ride shotgun. Even with a ragged beard that completely hides his face from unknowning captains everywhere (which should scare most people away ) GutZ still finds rides to this day...

Then came Parker, who heeded GutZ's boat ho'ing ways and turned it into a profession of catching fish on other peoples boats, then providing PP with look-at-me-now grip 'n grins from the decks of other peoples boats all over the state.
Where GutZ lacked in overall assertive ho'ed-ness, Parker filled the void and unbenoucned to boat owners around the state, ho'd himself into every fishery imaginable.
Some people have fish mounts on their wall, & Parker, well, he has repro's of other peoples boats hanging in the den...what does that tell ya!

And There you have it. You got the real dye'd in the wool boat hoes, and then you're left with everyone else.......

Although I've never had the experience to fish with Gutz, PARKER has HO'd in excess of a 50 rides in my boat!

I Crown PARKER The HO of all HO's.......

Parker is a Ho that understands. If there are 30 fish in the river to catch, we'll fish all day to catch those 30. I'll give him honor's of a DIE HARD HO...

Keith

P.S. Parker, the time is coming for some big winter nates, you in? Need to get you another 20+ SW WA nate....

Undisputed....

Parker = KOTH.... King of the Ho's

Fighting to stay on top: Competitive ho's

I told you there were a lot sluttier Ho's on here than me CP. Just cause I'm the dirtiest Ho you know doesn't rank me very high on this forum of super Ho's.....although I do like the thought of switching boards to talk junk just to get back at me. You might wanna get in here more often.
JD

Parker did buy a boat and never even got it wet before he sold it...
You gotta hand it to the guy...at least he's honest with himself..and everyone else!

THAT's the telltale sign of a true Champion-Caliber Ho!

Let's put it this way.....

One day, when we're all old.

We'll tell stories of the BHHOF. The Boat Ho Hall of FAME....

Hands down those discussions will center around Parker. He's on the top of that list and it will take 200 years to knock that crown off of him....

He's Ho'd more days fishing than most people on this board have logged....

Keith

I'm a logical guy. Selling your own boat w/o getting it wet does take it to a new level that I find amazing. I never imagined such ho-ery.

I'll edit original post and downgrade him to challenger out of respect. Still a ho though.

hoery

I don't have to Ho I'm so good ppl ask me to fish from the front of their boat.

In fact, J-Ho has asked me many times to fish in his boat. Fortunately, my services were better spent elsewhere.

Phil was mostly invited for ballast.

JD

Now I know why you didnt want to fish by yourself on Saturday....

I see a very entertaining thread developing. Maybe history in the making.

I've recently been ho'd by HO- siah. It did feel a little dirty now that I think about it. Good thing I washed my boat afterwards.

Hard for me to Ho rides.... It drives me nut's to Ho a ride side drifting steelhead, it drives me nuts when I feel the boat off track according to line angle... There's only a couple guys I'll get in the boat and keep my mouth shut...

I'll Ho a ride or two a year in a DB on the EFL or Kalama because I get tired of rowing and watching my bow boys hook up...

I'll Ho a ride or two a year trolling herring for the CR springers as long as I get the BOW SEAT on the upwind side... First bait usually wins and the belly of the troll always catches more fish....

In honesty, the only jet sled I enjoy Ho'ing a ride in is Kevin Lunds, he's ranked as a master boat runner in my books. Dude know's how to backbounce and bobber fish and keep the boat dialed! One hell of a fisherman!

Keith

Seems like I'm always being ho'ed. I wanna be a ho sometimes too!

Note: Danny speaking here not my wife in the moniker......

You can't follow PP for a decade and not know the Parker is a huge boat ho.

However, if the below statement is true, then he pretty much has to be the undisputed boat ho of all time.

At least he sold it to a non-ho that uses it....
