I did this a year ago or so and lost it (on my hard drive) I just recently found it and wanted to post it up to see what y'all thought...it is intended to be a poster...
just from looking at it and not seeing it in real life, how about changing the color of the text below the rod to a more noticeable brighter text, it (to me) kind of gets lost in the graphic.
Everyone's a friggin critic! haha,,,...just joking TG.... I tried a few different colors and a red or something would probably be better. There is nothing to see in real life as it is all digital. I homoganized a bunch of different pictures and then photoshoped.... It would be done up to , like Doug, for display at shows or in print for ads maybe....
About the poster, we could man a booth at the Houston Fishing show, or maybe a Fishing Tournament our work for the soldiers and our work individually and colectively. I'd gladly give 5 or 6 hours a day to man a booth. In 2012 Shreveport will be hosting the Bass Master Classic. In 2011, Classic will be in New Orleans.
I would love to have a booth at the Houston fishing show but booth space is pretty expensive. I will try to find someone that would sponsor a space. We need to check and see if there is still space available. Pat
I can check into the Classic booth spaces. They probably bring a premium also. But the 2008 Classic was the largest they ever had and it was held in Shreveport and their where over 137,000 people at the Outdoor Show there in 2 days. I was thankful that I was a Life Member when it came time for the weigh in because we were guarenteed a good seat. The Outdoor show is free at the Classic, and every sporting goods company you can imagine is there. In 2008 their was only ONE, and I mean ONE rod builder there and he was swamped. Last year was the 40th Classic and it was in Alabama. The numbers at the Ala Classic were very disappointing to say the least, barely 30,000.
