If conditions are good you'll be ok with the 12ft. Just have pfd and enough power to navigate safely

Thanks for the quick reply! 2500-3000? Can u 'splain to me?
We always have PFD's... but only the BELT variety... should I drag out the big orange stuff?
48lb and rowboat..... wind IS a factor, so I'll watch carefully before fully committing....

You need a type I, II, III or V PFD on board for each person on the boat. Any person 12 and under must wear the PFD at all times.

Ski-belt type floatation devices are not USCG approved.

the 2500-3000 refers to the size of a spinning reel.

OK, good to know... Here's the thing, on BPS now and nowhere are they identifying Type 1,2,3 etc.. -Also, we always wear them
Example: http://www.basspro.com/shop/en/bass-...able-life-vest

Oh and lastly, what weight/type line do you recommend?

Life vests that go over your shoulders and around your chest basically. med bass gear will work fine. 10-12# is good. They're line snappers so make sure the drag is smooth and not too tight because a big one will take a run and snap your knot before you know wtf happened.

And also for everyone, consider using 1/0, 2/0 inline circle hooks with the glob of bait. They inhale that stuff on impact a lot of the time and the inline circle hooks work great from keeping it out of their throats. way too many floating belly up every year for no reason.
