I do and he will come with but he doesn't enjoy fishing, he has (unofficial) ADD it is hard for him to focus on something for that long.. so I thought about this to try and get him interested in it, but even with my spare sitting there he won't touch it.. just drives the boat.

They are good to have around when you are out in the sticks with the birds and the trees and the bugs.
And they are not clutter. Whatever you do, don't get them something that is clutter. No matter how cool it is, if it's gimmicky or it needs batteries or whatever, it will become a nuisance. You don't want to be remembered as a nuisance.

This is good advice, don't want anything that is going to take up a lot of space or something he feels that he has to have out in the open just in case I pop up to the cabin one day. Something to keep in mind when I shop. I know his brothers would love the book, but he wouldn't even crack it.. again the unofficial ADD, he works his tail off all winter so he can just sit up at the lake all summer and not even have to look at a piece of paper.
The tool idea gets me thinking, he spends about 12 weeks of the year up there from May-September.. so something that is a double that he has to bring up every single time might really help him out.
