[QUOTE="Kirk, post: 5443966, member: 967"] Several years ago I helped a friend to get sponsors for his pro fishing career. It is not easy to get fishing related sponsors (gear, rods, reels, lures, boats) to give anything away. Most only offer product discounts and will sell tournament shirts to you. These companies get a lot of requests each year. You have to be in the top tier to get anything of real value for free. We found out real quick if you wanted some "money" sponsors you had to focus on peripheral industries like local hotels, insurance companies, gas stations, restaurants, Mom and Pop businesses, local car lots, etc. We had a lot of success using that approach.
