You can't just go to fishing games and say "Yo, can i go fishing and hang with friends?"
Haha, that doesn't work that way.
You need the license, you need the trainning, a fishing team (Not your friends actual fishing team) And you need to be 16+ or 18+ even 21+ whatever your law requires. I don't recommend "hanging out" in a game. It costs a lot of money, $50+ for each person. And the money is collected all together for the 1st prize, 2nd, and third. Sometimes just the 1st prize. Good luck with that..
