Have Faith in Products for Sponsorship
Episode 57
Monday, 28 June, 2021

I got a chance to talk to Trevor McKinney at the G Loomis media event at the Bassmaster Classic in Ft Worth on the night before the tournament started. Trevor won the 2021 Carhartt Bassmaster College Series in November of 2020 which qualified him for a berth in the 2021 Academy Sports + Outdoors Bassmaster Classic. Trevor is sponsored by G Loomis and Shimano and other A+ brands such as Rapala.McKinney talks with us about how his business relationship with Shimano began and how he also developed a relationship with Rapala as a college student. As a college angler, the Bassmaster Classic can be overwhelming and Trevor talks about his mindset going into the biggest fishing tournament in the world and about how to work with the cameraman who might be in the boat with him.He also talks about how to learn from mistakes and how to make sure the time is right before you make the jump to the highest level of professional fishing.
