"IKE"
Why he just stands out?
Because he dared to be original. If you noticed by now, I tend to favor IKE for my tooning. When you write about something, you need to describe it. So, say you have two red apples in front of you and you have to describe them in a short story. One apple has a bunch of bites in it and is not quite as perfectly shaped as the other apple; nicely polished and round. Well, when your done describing both, I can guarantee you the story about the polished round apple will be shorter than the one about the bitten apple. The bitten one has a story to tell by itself, it has lived and has been through other experiences that the polished apple has not. The bitten apple is so much more interesting than the polished one that who ever bit it, thought so too. The apple has become more describable, by taking away from it; it gave added detail. How do you like them apples?
Ike was a dj a while back when he was younger; he used to breakdance and has been know to be some what of a crazy one He has tattoos on his back and arms and shows them off when he feels like it. But when it comes to angling, he is professional as a heart surgeon performing his skills on the president of the United States. He has put in practice a way of fishing that requires a lot of research , a lot of strategy. This has made him one of the top bass anglers in the world. For me though, like I've mentioned in the past; it's his yelling that sets him apart. He doesn't care who's around when he screams or does his little dog snuffs and short punch when trying to hold in the excitement. He simply ignores everything and yells how he feels, that's the ingredient that makes the soup good. He added it to bass fishing and now there are those that do too; Ike paved the way.
So, Mike is not the bad ass of angling, he's the bad bass angler, that still can break dance in his 40's. That's a good bite to have, makes him interesting, setting him apart from the others and making for a fun sketch for me to create.
