wow now thats some good stuff. i try not to take anything the wrong way. i understant what everyone is saying, and yu all have good points. sence im new at all this i thought some help from some of the local buisness. most of them here are prvetly owned, mom and pop kinda places. thats why i was gonna try the letter. but im gonna rethink my aproch to this and see what happens . i am trying to get a few tournies under my belt , first but its not cheep. fist wone i was going to do compete in fell throu. my partner backed out the nite befor and i lost out on some money . but not gonna give up. got anouther one next friday. thanks for all the advice. ill keep working on it . abe

ok i know some of you dont recament asking for anything when looking for sponsors. and i understand why. I would like you to read this letter im writing and give me your opinions on weather or not its a good idea. or if it need to be revised and how. keep in mind that i have giving up everything i posably can to become a pro angler. and that i am aware that it will take me some time to get there. this letter is intended for local non fishing buisness . thanks abe To whom it may concern. My name is abelicio Gomez. I have been a resident of lake havasu for Three years. I have recently entered in competing in local and regional bass fishing tournaments. Starting this winter and continuing thru out the calendar year in pursuit of acquiring the knowledge, and experience to aid myself in competing in the pro bass fishing tournament the following year. I am currently seeking financial sponsors to aid me with tournament expenses. The fees and expenses of tournament fishing can add up very quickly. The total cost of a tournament witch includes entry fees, fuel, and license, insurance, travel expenses, lodging, can add up to approximately between 350.00 and 500.00 each tournament. Not including cost of boat, repairs, and equipment. Any contribution you give would be greatly appreciated. In exchange for you sponsorship I will be advertising your business name, and or logo you provide to me on our team shirts, boat, and or tow vehicles. Depending on the type of sponsorship you participate in. Thus any media exposure would give you additional advertising with no extra cost to you. We also are willing to promote your business in any function that would benefit you with the aid in revenue for you business. ok its not quite finished. So let me have it

wow that was a good artical cabela10. ty i intent to go full foward in competeing with boat in hand. but i also hope to beable to conpete as a co-angler as well . thanks for all the input guys abe

first of all i wasent trying to put anyone down , or even calling anyone an outcast. i was talking about how i felt. i do have a boat . i have an 1980 starcraft tri hull. i understant that everyone in here is not a pro. and that we all cant aford a new bass boat. just wanted to know if i was the only one that felt like i was at a disadvantage becouse i cant aford the new boat. i was down at the lake today wathing all the pro,s come in from pre fishing the flw for this weekend . fells weard wanting to compeate and not own a bass boat . abe

do you have to have a bass boat to fish in a tournament? i understand thet a bassboat is not a requirement for tournament fishing but it seems like you would be an outcast if you dont have one. or at least thats the way i fell. has any of you guys ever fish a bass tourny in anouther kind of boat?

glade to hear it. good luck ;D

sounds great im gonna join right now 8-)

Ff the wind will ever get under 20 mph id like to get anything over 6 for sm and 8for lm

hey there fisherboy glad to see you abord ;D

i line about 5 min from the lake i fish and im there everyday twice a day . as a shore fisherman i can say i have never had any problen with any anglers in a tournament never caused any problms. now all the visitors that come in for the weeken or there vacation thats the problen. they poulute the watter . with trash , fuel, and just dont care becuz they dont live here. someone need to write something about them not the guys who care about the lake.

thanks guys ill keep all that in mind and try not to forget. ill let you all know whats going on . abe
