Just currious if it meets the length requirements, has a live well, and a steeringwheel, could you? Any orgs prohibit this?

I have seen them fish out of patio boats in a American Bass Tourment on shasta lake a few years back, so its must be ok. the patio boat was in the money also,lol. as long as you have some kind of live well and the proper safety equipment theres no reason why you cant.

my friend told me he fished new bass a while back out of a 14 foot jon boat with a 15 he used a ice chest for a live well... it took a lot of work he said but it worked he placed in the money a few time also. there shouldnt be any reason u cant use ur pontoon

I would guess its ok with livewells and a kill switch.
