Chris, if you follow what Bill and wimwuen said you will be off to a good start. I want to add one thing, instead of sending out a resume, send out a portfolio of yourself and information on what tournaments you are fishing. Example, cover page could have a few pictures of yourself, newspaper clippings, etc. Don’t arrange the pictures in any order, turn them at angles, overlap them slighty with the newspaper clippings, etc. The first page after the cover should be a Contents page, which will tell the person reading your portfolio what’s inside. Center these on the page. next should be the Letter of Intent page, which tells that person a little about you and what you are looking for, along with what you can do for their company. Then a Pictures page, with pictures of you fishing, working with kids, etc. Then a Tentative Venue- Competition Schedule page which tells them what you will be doing during the up-coming fishing season. The next page could be a Tournament Expenses page which explains how much you will be spending on tournaments this season, gas, entry fees, motels, supplies, maintenance, etc.
It helps to throw in some information on fishing as well, a Fishing Facts page, popularity of fishing, tournament growth, etc. Show all your sources. If you take your time you can put together a portfolio which people will enjoy looking at, and getting them to read something about you is the first step. Good luck, Carl
