Some Useful Ideas for Getting Free Fishing Lures
from: Maxx Sports GuidesEvery angler seems to have a dream of getting a endless supply of the newest and best fishing tackle and lures. Believe it or not, there's a way for fishermen and women to get access to a variety of free fishing lures by acting as testers and evaluators for fishing supply companies and manufacturers.
Usually these free fishing lures are yours to keep, all you have to do is keep a fishing journal when using the lures or submit a feedback review within a specific period if time. Anglers may also be required to sign a waiver to use the free fishing lures that allow the company to use their picture, comments or journal on websites or in advertising campaigns.
Sometimes it's also possible to get free fishing lures directly through the company during advertising campaigns and promotions. Watch for information at your favorite bait shop or on fishing shows on TV or websites on the internet. Typically these free fishing lures and tackle give aways are for a very limited time and the company will simply send you a lure, you don't always have the option as to what lure or color you'll get.
If you'd like to be a tester or evaluator for a specific manufacturer, you could try to get to know the sales representative in your area. If you belong to a fishing club or organization the rep usually attends exhibitions, shows or events in his or her area, so make it a point to go over and introduce yourself.
If you enter tournaments, you can contact the rep and indicate you'd be willing to use their fishing lures exclusively during the event, giving them credit when you land the prize winning fish. Getting on with one of these companies is often not as tough as you may think, but it's important to turn in any paperwork required in a timely fashion to continue to get the free fishing lures.
In addition, if you purchase your fishing tackle and lures online, watch for online retailers who are offering free give aways or draws for free tackle. Often there aren't a lot of people who enter these, especially during the off season. It's certainly worth your time and some extra typing to enter your name in the draws. In addition you may wish to consider becoming a distributor or online retailer yourself. Often buying wholesale direct from the manufacturer can result in some free fishing lures with your order.
