Thanks for the input guys. As far as my success, I try to stay within my strengths, I only change if the boaters are really whacking them. Like I said, stay with what you know and don't get caught up in what the boater is doing to much. The lure needs to be in the water to catch fish

Just updated the resume again as I just took 5th place in the BFL Great Lakes Division Super Tournament. Any advive would be great

I revised it a little bit... Let me know what you think of it. Thank you

Personal My name is Mike Parve and I am from West Bend, Wisconsin. I was born May 31st, 1973 and am married with 2 sons. My full time job is a Auto Body Shop Manager of which I have mutliple responsibilites but great communication skills with people. Clubs and Affiliations BFL Great Lakes Division 2002-Present 2 Co-Angler wins 4 Co-Angler top 10's 1 Big Bass Winner Wal-Mart Stren Series 2004-Present 2 top 20's Wal-Mart FLW Series 2007 Fished only one event, placed 38th(co-angler) TBF club 2005-Present 2007 Tournament Director 2 Time Zone Qualifier 1 Time State Qualifier 2007 Club Angler of the Year Current Sponsorships Pro-Staff for Wave Worms Field-Staff for Stanley Jigs I have worked a couple of local tackle stores spring fishing flings for Wave Worms to help promote product and am always willing to work shows and outings. Beacuse of this and my current job I believe that I am a great person to help promote products from any interested parties. To help promote products I would be willing to post decals on tow vehicle and boat and also wear hats and shirts of products. I have taken product to tournaments to hand out to interested parties as well. We currently are starting a youth TBF club to help promote this great pastime to kids and this is a great way to get products out to people with a fresh start.

The reasoning for after the cut is to promote the sponsors that sponsor the tour, they do, however put money into it.

I fish as a co-angler in BFL's, Strens, and some Series events. You can wear whatever you want in the BFL's, Stren and Series up until you make the cut's of the bigger tournaments. That is when you are not allowed to wear your own logos. As far as fishing, Do you have a guaranteed boater to lock up your spot for the year? If so, ask if if you could pre-fish with him. I have, and have not prefished for events. Good luck to you out there. No such thing as being locked out of water, CAST RIGHT OVER THE GUYS HEAD!!! He will get the hint! We have equal rights to the water you know!

Hey Guys! How do you think the co=angler winner felt getting stiffed? The boaters purse went up 5 times from what they can win during the year, and the co's stayed the same. I am a co-angler in the BFL's some Stren's and a Series event or two. I know us back deckers don't get a lot of respect in the sport and that proves it. My pick will be David Dudley looking to be the 1st into the 3 million club.
