One of the guys on my board of directors works for TPWD, he told me the precertifying by eating the heart of a hardhead was perfectly acceptable. He signs my paycheck, so I'm gonna believe him.

Yes on squid and sardines. They use a trash can for a live well. They used to use one of the fish boxes.

How far out do you need to throw out a popper or swimbait to have decent chance to hookup. I was playing around at the neighborhood pond with a new rig and no matter what I tried it seemed 30-40 yards was the max I could lob a Tuna Hunter Jr. Will that work or do I need to start practicing my form more before the trip?
If people concentrated on the really important things in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles.

I'd practice the form a little more. A Tuna Hunter, Jr. is a little lighter and won't travel as far as say a Maguroni or other pencil lures but 40 yards may get some strikes but not as many as 50 - 60 yards.

After a little more looking into it maybe I have the leader wrong. Right now I have about 15' of 80lb flouro. I'll try shortening it by about half and switching to mono.
I'm not gonna lie I was also hoping on the longshot of a P'ed off 8-10lb largemouth would hit it.

Not bad for a jr. Try a full size and you should be hitting 60 yards
