How I Got My First
I'm not really out searching for sponsors currently. But at 17 I was lucky enough to land a job at the local tackle shop in VA. I'm just out fishing and having fun. If a sponsor opportunity comes about that would be outstanding if not I'm gonna continue to support the fishing industry and continue to do what I love to do and that's fish. I truly don't understand why time after time young kids think being sponsored is so crucial. Just have fun and keep becoming a better fisherman and see where it takes you. Sorry for the rant.

Best excuse you've given for buying tackle.

BPS Hollow Body Frog
I've only used the BPS kermy for a brief outing but it seemed to work fine. Was fairly easy to walk hooks seemed fine to me and body felt very good. Did have to squeeze water out on occasion but overall for the price seemed like a decent hollow body frog.

Spiderwire Invisibraid - Can fish see it?
I really didnt like my expirence with spiderwire braided line. The line feels like it has almost has been coated in wax, and isnt round at all! Power Pro!

Knots for fluorocarbon
Improved clinch on flouro seems to work the best for me. I lost a big fish on flouro with the Palomar so switched to the improved clinch with no troubles.

need help using a fluke
I like to rig mine weedless and throw it into the pads or other slop. Let it fall and then jerk back up to the surface. The bass believe it is a bait fish eating bugs off the surface and they will unload on it!

Favorite Crankbait
The bomber family of crankbaits are my personal favorites. If i had to narrow it down to just one it would be the flat A.

How old do you have to be to fish Co-angler at the BASS opens
BTW there is also a youth bass federation nation you could possibly look into.

How old do you have to be to fish Co-angler at the BASS opens
Yeah just try and find a boater willing to take you out, and really try hard to prove to he/she that you are a good angler and a good person to be around. Be friendly be respectful and it's always nice to offer to pay for some of the gas.

How old do you have to be to fish Co-angler at the BASS opens
I do not believe there is any age restrictions as far as fishing as co angler goes. Although it may be hard to find a boater willing to take you out on in a tournament at such a young age. Good luck and remember just to relax and have fun!
