This is a serious topic. One of the reasons Yuma Pro Am has an age limit
is because of the fear of putting a child alone in a boat with a
stranger.

I have heard a couple different people talk about trying a "pro"/child
fishing tournament, but I have rarely heard of how anybody addresses the
issue that strikes fear in my heart.

Perhaps its not a big issue in a big open lake, but on our river system
with all the backwaters and hidden channels it certainly could be.

I would support and even help organize a pro/child fishing tournament if
my fears on this issue could be laid to rest.

What would you do?


If you really want to get into that ball of worms, the
Kid's parent/guardian rides along as an observer.

But as wacko as some parents are these days, I'd avoid the issue
altogether.

LOL. I had thought of that, and came to the same conclusion.
