this was my first yeat fishing the bfl mountain division as a co-angler and i have loved it!!! i already knew alot about the lakes that we fished this year but i picked up some new tricks of the trade for the boaters that i have been paired up with!! they pair you with your partner randomly with the computer!! And on the co-angler it never takes more tha 3 or 4 pounds to money, i have comsistently caught fish in every tourney and i am setting in10th in the points to go fish the regionals in october!! so i would personally advise you to fish it is a great way to learn alot and make a little money to!!
