I am looking for a committed pro angler to sign up as a co-angler with for this event. I have had three situations in the past three weeks where I received a committment from the pro, only to be notified later they found a buddy or someone willing to sign-on for all the events. There are a couple pieces I find disappointing. One, is obviously getting the commitment from the pro and being instructed to register and pay for the FLW membership only to be told you’ve “been dropped for someone else.” Secondly, is the time that’s gone by where I could have been looking for someone else to sign with.
Please note this does not apply to all of those pro’s that have responded. I currently have a couple right now that have respectfully followed up by advising where they are at in the process and will contact me either way. I appreciate their candor.
This post by no means is intended to cause a problem. In fact, I am not looking for responses or comments to the situation I have experienced, just wanted others to be aware of it. I am simply asking that the pro’s be considerate when working with a potential co-anglers.
More importantly, I am looking for a committed pro to sign with.
Thank you.
