The Ultimate Guide To Fishing Sponsors
If you’re looking to be a sponsored angler, this ultimate guide will help you get started. This guide includes expert advice from people who have spent years working as reps for several brands in the fishing industry. You may be reading this guide thinking that the only way to get sponsors is to have an outstanding track record in fishing tournaments. This could not be further from the truth. In fact, having an outstanding track record in tournaments means nothing to a company if the angler does not promote and sell the product well. Sure, winning lots of major tournaments puts your name on the map, but companies typically don’t go knocking on everyone’s door anymore when there are so many major tournaments with so many anglers. Plus, there are so many social media influencers out there. So, how do you set yourself apart from the rest of the crowd? Check out 3 major ways to get sponsors here.
Purpose-built for jig minnow rigging and pairing with forward-facing sonar, the Hog Farmer Baits Stroll Shad has been fine-tuned to create a lethal baitfish presentation. Featuring a slick un-ribbed body, the Stroll Shad is offered in a scaled-down profile that activates a lively and fish-attracting shimmy of Hog Farmer’s signature pin tail. Incorporating key body shape details that have made the Spunk Shad so effective, anglers see results in any variety of techniques. Rig the Stroll Shad as a finesse presentation on the back of any vibrating jig, spinner bait, or underspin and produce exceptional strolling action with a small jig head. Break out the Hog Farmer Baits Stroll Shad when the bite gets tough and watch it become your favorite bite-getting minnow bait when it’s time to target finicky or suspended bass.

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve probably heard or seen on social media anglers talking about the topic of forward-facing sonar discussing how much it has been proven successful over traditional techniques. Some of these forward-facing sonar setups include Garmin LiveScope, HumminbirdMEGA Live, and Lowrance ActiveTarget. There are many lures that can get bites paired with this technology, but Bassmaster Elite Series and Sunline pro Cody Huff claims the lures that consistently perform year-round seem to be the drop shot, swimbait, and of course the “jig head/minnow” like the Missile Baits Spunk Shad. At Sunline, we know that there is so much more than just knowing what lures perform best. So, we reached out to Cody Huff to ask him what setup he uses for these techniques. Check out all of Cody’s feedback in the full blog here.
