App Setup and Navigation
acct setup, entering the tourney, interacting with posts
Alright, let's walk through how to get set up in Pelican Log, join the Marsh Masters Competition, and start interacting with the community.
The first step is downloading the Pelican Log app and creating your account.
When you open the app, you'll have a few options. You can create an account manually, or the easiest way is to sign in using your Apple or Google account. It only takes a few seconds and gets you up and running quickly.
Once you're logged in, you'll land on the home screen. Along the bottom, you'll see tabs for your home feed, trips, reports, and your personal profile. In the top corner, you'll find notifications and the main menu.
Now let's get you entered into the tournament.
Tap the menu button and select Clubs. This is where you'll find clubs and communities you can join. For Marsh Masters, you'll simply join the appropriate club and you'll gain access to tournament information, posts from other members, upcoming events, and the competition itself.
Once you're inside the club, head over to the Events section and select the Marsh Masters Tournament. You'll see details like prizes, rules, scoring, and leaderboard information. Just tap Join Tournament, and you're officially entered.
That's it. You're in.
Now let's talk about interacting with the community.
Inside the club feed, you'll see catches, trip reports, photos, and updates from other anglers. If you see something you like, tap the heart button to like it. You can also leave comments, ask questions, congratulate someone on a great catch, or share your own experiences.
You can even share posts directly to your social media accounts. Every share, like, and comment helps create a more active community, and during Marsh Masters, engagement matters. The post with the most engagement each week will earn the Popularity Prize, so don't be afraid to share your catches and get your friends involved.
That's all there is to it.
Create your account, join the tournament, share your catches, and have fun connecting with other anglers along the way. We'll see you on the leaderboard.
