Invitation accepted

I've been invited to fish a three day crappie tournament, huge entry fee with bigger payouts. It'll be a 100 boat field. The Professionals are already bitching about not being able to compete you must be amateur or inactive fisherman with at least two years off the circuit and can't return for 36 months, residency requirements are must reside in either Missouri or Arkansas and be a registered voter, must fish from your personal boat (no manufacturers boats are permitted).
Day three will be bank/dock fishing.
