A 12' is ok for general fishing but probably not for tournaments. If winds are over 10 mph it could be a little dangerous. I think it would also be a little tough with 2 adults and a 100 quart livewell.

Oh well I guess I will just fish for fun it has a cooler built into the deck not sure its a 100 Wtf though. Just thought it could be fun to join your club. I'm going to try the boat with 2 adults for the first time this weekend I've had the kids out a bunch
The first boat I owned was a 12' Jon. I used it on Loch Raven in the early 70s. My brother and I had a great time with it, fishing for fun. We were careful to watch the weather forecast. Our reservoirs can be pretty nasty when the wind is blowing. I know I have been on the water in my 16' tournament boat, in high winds, wishing I had a bigger boat. (or wishing my boat was on the trailer in my driveway and I was home watching TV.) It is not unusual to have bad weather on a tournament day. Last year, we had 50 mph winds during the tournament of champions. For safety reasons, I strongly recommend a larger boat for tournaments. Have fun, stay safe, and enjoy your boat.
Cool thanks for the input guys. Can you catch catfish in liberty that's my second favorite Target fish if you can what's the best way to head in lake
