so i'm thinking about joining a local club to fish tournaments as a co angler now i know what to bring and to be polite to whatever boater i am paired with. the questions i have is how exactly do you prepare for a tournament, since i have never fished a tournament i really have no idea my feeling is that i should be stocked with anything i might need bring 5-6 rods, pretty much fish whatever the boater wants and only give input if i'm asked for it.
