Well my opinion probably doesn't have to much weight. I've only done
one bass tourney(that will change) I do attend several musky tourneys and have
been a backseater,I have always paid 50%. I'm not sure if it was expected but I
found it to be the best way. Even if the boater is up front and able to cast in first,I always feel
they also have alot more work to do,such as boat control,trolling motor,etc.
I also quickly learned that paying half the expenses will get you plenty more invites,which
is an awesome bonus. However,when I'm boating...I don't expect half...but its certainly
appreciated.
Its always been 50/50 split for me. Just was wondering due to having issues with backseaters not paying there fair share. Most of them pay there fair share while others I know will never take again.

I backseat frequently. Sometimes they pay me....sometimes i pay them. It is not a one way street like you might think.
That does clear up some misconceptions we had about you Lloyd.

I believe the misconception is some think he is talking about a boater's backseat.
