Nice!

Stay safe. Focus on family. We will all be here when you get back up and running.

It seemed in landscape mode and upside down. There were no comments. I got disconnected a few times. Could have been on my side

Light, wind, water temp, flow, moon and barometric pressure.

I will try to be there.

Good Luck

My boat is a 2009

I did it 3 times in a row, twice throwing the lure over the side of the boat. That was the worst. After that time, I have gotten a little better and tug on the lure before throwing it over.

I don't think most tournaments have a year limit on boats. Just ensure your boat is safe and meets the tournament’s specific rules, which you should be able to look up. Almost all say your horsepower cannot exceed the USCG sticker.

To prepare my boat for a tournament, I focus on the following:

Maintenance: Keep the boat, motor, and wiring/electronics in reliable working condition.

Livewell: Ensure that it is well-aerated and functional.

Comfort: Organize the boat to make it comfortable for myself.

Safety Gear: Always have life jackets, a first aid kit, and a fire extinguisher on board.

Remember, the fish don’t care about your boat, but a well-maintained one makes your experience better!
