i just got a 10' jon boat what do i need to get fishing it is just empty also it has what looks like a drain hole in back i plug that right

Bugflipper:
I like this type of plug. http://www.amazon.com/Moeller-Snap-Tite-Bailer-1-Inch-Brass/dp/B000MT95NM It's just easier for me to flip the arm over. The ones that you screw to tighten are a little hard to get out sometimes. Most of them have a 1 inch hole, just check and see what size yours is. You will need a life jacket for each person, paddle and probably a dip net. Beyond that it's up to you. Maybe a trolling motor and battery. Most places make you buy a tag if it's powered. Some places make you have a fire extinguisher and throw life preserver if it's powered as well. Maybe even navigation lights if out after dark. Just check your state laws. You can have it as simple or as complex as you want. You will probably want a 5 gallon bucket for the fish as well. Rod holders on the side will keep you from stepping on the rods.
Good luck.
