I am a vet and have my own boat but can fish 4 comfortably in my G3 2400. Do I register and just show up to be paired with others? Is it best 7 crappie for weigh in?

Please register as a boat captain and be there by 7am. When you register, indicate you will be able to take more than one person with you.
I'm not sure if this is best 7 or just big fish. I will find out.
Thanks for volunteering.

THIS IS BIG FISH ONLY. This is a very informal tournament (I use that term very loosely), 98% fun and maybe 2% competitive. Who wins doesn't matter.
This is about honoring veterans and having fun. And with the current world situation, we need to be honoring and having some fun.
