About Clyde:

As a dedicated bass fishing guide, I enjoy the challenge of consistently catching bass, whether for fun on the weekend or in competitive fishing tournaments. I have long-term goals to achieve within this sport, both from a tournament perspective and in the marketplace for my sponsors. Over the past nine years, I have qualified for the FLW BFL Regionals as well as BASS Regionals.

With enthusiasm, a positive attitude, and strong communication skills, I know I can promote the products I represent to the public and into new markets. I have successfully established SEACURED FISHING (www.seacuredfishing.com) and earned respect from my peers as an honest competitor who is always willing to assist fellow fishermen. I believe this foundation is essential for the growth of bass fishing and expanding retail opportunities for the products I represent.

While competing is important, it is just one aspect of being a professional. I prioritize introducing children and their parents to catch and release bass fishing, a crucial responsibility of a professional fisherman. Additionally, I am a U.S. Coast Guard licensed bass fishing guide. When guiding or competing in Pro/Am tournaments, I have fishermen in my boat all day, allowing me to showcase the features that set my equipment apart in the marketplace, potentially influencing their purchasing decisions.

Trade shows, seminars, demo rides, writing articles, monitoring websites, and competing in fishing tournaments are all avenues I utilize to increase public awareness of my sponsors' products. I also work to introduce those products into local markets to boost sales as my business partnerships grow.

FISHING EXPERIENCE:

With 25 years of fishing experience, I have spent the last 12 years focused on bass tournaments.
