        Aragorn spent literally decades with Gandalf hunting down and interrogating Gollum, among other things, before Frodo even had any clue about what the ring was. Aragorn also knew a Hell of a lot about the overall geopolitical situation that everyone in the Shire was entirely ignorant of. Aragorn was the person giving Frodo the most advice.
