Dunedin, FL - FishForFREE.com is proud to announce the celebration of its fourth year in helping anglers learn how to get sponsored for fishing tournaments.

In 2003, author Scott Rauber, after searching for fishing sponsorship information on the Internet, found only limited resources. He decided to put together a manual, based on his previous experiences, and experiment selling it on eBay®. The first copy sold for the listing price of $1.99.

However, the next few listings on eBay didn’t sell. At the same time Rauber was posting on eBay®, he had a “thunderbolt idea from God.” Rauber says, “Out of nowhere this name popped into my head: Fish For Free. My initial thought was……..sounds kind of corny, but it’s ‘catchy’ and certainly easy to remember. I purchased the domain name FishForFree.com on September 4th 2003.”

Early in 2004 sales started to pick up and over 50 copies were mailed, in just one week. As sales progressed so did interest in the www.fishforfree.com fifteen-page manual and Rauber added a spokesman to further promote his product.   In January 2005 he welcomed long-time BASS Elite Bass Pro and 7 time BASS Classic qualifier Randy Howell http://www.RandyHowell.com to the promotional team.

What started out as a trial run has now grown into a product line offering Volume 2 – How To Get Sponsored For Fishing Tournaments ebook and the FishForFREE.com Sponsorship Seminar presented by Kistler Rods in a 2 CD Audio Set, recorded this past February at the 2007 BASS Classic in Birmingham, AL.

Finding a need and filling it is what Scott Rauber has done in also adding Fishing Resume services and personal sponsorship coaching to his repertoire.

With over 1600 copies sold worldwide, the FishForFREE.com how-to sponsorship arena looks forward to continuing to be the leader in helping anglers secure and retain sponsor relationships.
