I have a super small fishing boat. It seats 2, and its run by an electric motor connected to a car battery. In order to put it on the lake, is it required to have white, red, and green lights?

Heres a picture of my boat to give you an idea of what it looks like. Just add a small electric motor to the back. Copy and paste in your search bar:

You have a kayak, a rod & reel, a bait well, and a cooler. You’ve just been given a gift card to your local sporting good store for . What kind of tackle would you buy? (Lures, Leaders, Hooks, etc.)
The target would be Red Fish and Trout in Galveston, TX.

This is a question asked by my friend:

I’m having an Abu Garcia Revo Inshore reel, but I’m not sure which rod to buy. I’m planning to use it for casting lure & to catch large game fish like snakehead(5kg++). Can anyone recommend me a rod which I can use for both functions above? I’m looking for something light and strong. Which brand & braid line poundage is good?

ive currently been assigned a project in which i must engineer a mousetrap powered boat but i am having difficulty with constructing a gearbox for it :// –> the idea i had was to have a fishing rod or something of the sort [long and flexible] be connected to the mousetrap so that when its triggered it will be able to pull twice the amount of string from the axel and thus allowing the boat to travel a longer distance however i havent been successful in putting it together and getting it to work ://

does anyone have ideas or suggestions on the matter ??
&& is there an alternative to using a fishing rod ?? –> i still want the something thats long and flexible like a fishing rod
