“GET THE NET!” These three words use to mean that you had a fish on and needed help landing it to insure that you didn’t lose it. Times have changed and now the phrase "Get The Net" also refers to the Internet. And just as a net is a necessary tool of the angler, the Internet has become equally important as a tool by professional anglers to get noticed. Two anglers with years of experience in graphic and web design and marketing have banded together to make the tournament angler’s career reach new heights with help from the Internet.

Brad Outersky, pro-angler from Pleasant Hill, Missouri and Denese Freeman, co-angler from Lawton, Oklahoma have launched a new website. It is www.BassAnglersNetwork.com. Their combined 40 years experience in web and graphic design and marketing will prove invaluable to any angler who chooses to use their services.

If you have attended any seminars or read any material about promoting yourself in the fishing industry, personal websites and resumes are at the top of the list. Branding yourself lets sponsors and potential sponsors know you are willing to get noticed and work to promote their company and their products or services.

BassAnglersNetwork provides many services for the “professional” angler. These services include building a website to fit an angler’s personality, resumes, sponsorship presentations that will impress potential sponsors, full color business cards and trading cards designed to help promote your business and brand you as the professional angler you are. BassAnglersNetwork also provides domain name registration and website hosting.

If you fish the Bassmaster Opens, Women’s Bassmaster Tour or Stren Series, the BassAnglersNetwork will keep you and your sponsors up-to-date on tournament schedules, tournament sites and tournament results for those three series.

Brad and Denese have worked hard in recent weeks to prepare the website for an official launch. It is their desire to make BassAnglersNetwork a number one resource for tournament anglers everywhere. When you hear someone say “GET THE NET” in the future, you can be sure they mean BassAnglersNetwork.com
