Hey bud it is total different experience fishing one of the big tournaments. I will say it is a lot of pressure but fun also!! I fished the Crappie Masters on Reelfoot earlier this year and we finished 46 out 55 boats. It was not were I wanted to end up but I was glad that we fished it. I learned a lot for the tournament and all the folks were super nice! I can't say enough about the Pros and how they are willing to help anyone. Glad yall got out there and fished it.
