Default 90 Year Old Senior Wants to Fish

I have a neighbor who is 90 and likes to fish. His biggest problem is that
he broke his back several years ago and gets around with a cane. He's quite
alert and capable of caring for himself, although I question his driving
ability, either with cars or boats. He does have a small power boat and
occasionally gets people to take him fishing--unfortunately, not often enough.

I've check with senior centers and other sources for boat buddies but
nothing has shown up. We live in the Sierra foothills of N. Calif. Any
suggestions?
