Not everyone has a boat. We do everything we can to find volunteers to accommodate those that do not have a boat. If we do not have enough boats, we will draw names for those that need a spot. Those that did not have a spot for the current tournament will be 1st to have a spot at the next tournament. All anglers without a boat are still welcome to fish from the banks at the event. All boats must have at least two anglers to participate in the tournament. We are always looking for volunteers for boats and captains.
