    Bass tournament ?

    I'm very experienced at small to mid size bass tournaments but am fixing to get a new Ranger 223F (fishing pontoon } 200 hp , ghost TM , and nice electronics . What would you do as a non boater if you got drawn to fish with me ?

    Be thankful that I am allowed to fish in a boat that I don’t have

    It’s part of the deal as a co angler. If they don’t want to fish from a pontoon or an older tin or whatever, they can buy their own boat.

    Don’t most larger tournaments have a rule against cumbersome craft?

    In the BFL

    Under rule 11. BOAT & HORSEPOWER REGULATION
    No barges or similarly cumbersome craft will be permitted.

    Most of the larger tournaments have this rule

    I would contact the tournament director prior to entering to make sure your boat is allowed

    Get a bass boat if your fishing tournaments, pontoon boat if you just want to go out an take a nap on the water.

    I would not call a Ranger 223f cumbersome .

    Why are you scared of getting beat by a guy in a pontoon ?

    Are you only going to fish tournaments at the lake that you live on?

    LOL I'm betting if you start cashing checks you are going to find there are a bunch of people that will have an issue with it

    I didn't say I could beat you . So if you were a co-angler you would not fish on pontoon boat .
