This post would kind of fit into a few forums but I figured it would fit best here.

I own a marketing agency and we specialize in outdoor industry brands. Unfortunately, the outdoor industry as a whole is about 10 years behind current digital marketing curve. Fortunately, this also means I can create my own brands as well and become a big industry player.

I'm looking at starting a fishing rod, reel, and baits brand. The plan was to actually start with rods last month but turns out Orvis had actually pulled a trademark on a word we were planing to use so we are in the process or rebranding. I just got back from ICAST and I'm looking at changing my business model a little bit after meeting manufacturers.

I would like to find either a student or somebody who could work with me part time to help draw up baits and reels. But I think it would be really helpful if it was somebody who loved to fish! I'm even open to negotiating a partnership for the company. I've got people who are willing to invest to get the ball rolling, looking to keep as much in the USA that's feasible on the business end.

Feel free to message me for more details.

I haven't done CAD in a long time but I have GIS and Spatial skills and love to fish. I am not sure if that helps you or not, but I can be reached at username at gmail.com

Howdy,
I am interested in this concept and would definitely like to talk more about potential opportunities for the future. I have ample background experience in 3D CAD programs such a Autodesk inventor, Fusion, and solid SolidWorks. I used these applications quite a bit for rapid prototyping projects/ideas. More valuably, I have been an avid outdoorsmen since I was able to walk. I was a professional gunsmith for over 3 years and built/restored/repaired/modified over 150 fine firearms. (Mostly double barrel shotguns and hunting rifles) I have in the past and currently still do forge all my own knives and have been making some flawless pieces that have sparked a lot of interest. Fishing however is my biggest passion since the season is year round. I've experimented making my own rods using mostly IM8 blanks and different assortments guides/ handle materials. I feel like we could potentially get the ball rolling on some pretty ambitious things, and I would be interested in talking further at your convenience. My email is username@yahoo.com

Thanks

I have also made a bunch of my own lures for both freshwater and inshore saltwater fishing. I think this is definitely an opportunity to capitalize on, especially with the direction that the market is heading, and people being able to sell a lure for $10 with (an estimated) cost of production to be less than $1.
