13 Fishing Experiences

[GordonJ]

I start this with a tribute, this link to a 7 year old thread:

Pete Egeler published a HOTSHEET, The TN Fishing Guide. He got it to work by giving it away to stores, who either sold it for a buck or gave to their customers and inside Pete would run small ads.

His only problem was he was a bit rural, and it took a day to get them circulated.

If you are a sportsman, a hunter or fisherman, then you are familiar with guides, hotsheets, moon cycles and hot spots.

Here are some ideas for a Fishing Experience business:

I've been deep salt water fishing (or more accurately, partying)...and some lake and river, but I'm not much of a fisherman. Too much lake, cleaning and eating as a kid, and NO patience or ability to be quiet and sit still for the sport, I need fast paced heart racing activity, which is why I spent a lifetime in golf.

Anyhow, from fishing contests, putting on shows, selling equipment, publishing guides and hotsheets, being a regional guide, or just taking a bunch of guys on a pontoon to a quiet part of the lake so they can party it up...

There are lots of opportunity to make a buck this year fishing.
