    So am I reading this correctly that a boat could possibly have 10 fish?

    Yes, This is like the B.A.S.S. and FLW formats where you catch your own 5 fish. So co-angler and boater would catch their own then weigh there own. Also pay their own fee.

    Kris, you should think of doing a Co-Angler division each tournament and maybe you will get more people. Otherwise I feel like there is a disadvantage to the co-angler.

    I wanted to make it more even for guys who would like to fish tournys out of smaller boats or flats and a team tourney is hard to fish out of smaller boats. Not really considering doing a co angler side at this point. Most guys at least have a flat to fish out of.

    I guess I dont understand why its harder to fish a team tourny out of a smaller boat? Now i’m not trying to bash this but now you have a small flat bottom boat (probably 1 livewell) and your going to jam 10 fish in there? Doesn’t seem to be fair to the fish and I think your fish mortallity might go down

    Exactly. If guys have smaller boats and its a team tourny format they probably wouldn’t get into them. So they are single person tournaments so guys can fish in their smaller boats and only have 5 fish. I bought a 100qt cooler and i agree 10 fish would probably not be a good thing in there. Im assuming guys in the flats would fish solo and guys in the bigger boats can fish 2 if they want

    Hey Kris, I have a small flat that I fish out of 90% of the time. I would fish your tournaments but would feel too guilty after coming home with everyone’s money every night.

    I know Just a little competitive smack talk to get everyone ready for tourney season. Besides, the bass boards have been pretty dead around here lately.
