"The Bass Coach"
The article you're about to read is true, the names are changed to protect the embarrassed (especially the victim within this article.)
In the early Spring of last year (2001) towards the end of the month of
March, I received a phone call from a prospective student who was inquiring about my 3-Day "On-Water" Bass Fishing School. For now, we will just call him John Doe, anyway in our conversation while inquiring about my school he stated that he had been bass fishing for several years as well as belonging to a bass club.After listening to him for awhile, I drew the conclusion that the problem with John's frustration was that for over the past four years with all of his tournament fishing he never as much as cashed in a check, even from all the smaller 10 to 15 boat tournaments that he had ever fished.
Then, while John was talking about his past experiences, he said that he had caught a lot of bass over the years on many different baits but when it came to fishing bass tournaments he just couldn't for the life of him make a check.
I asked John several different questions that I usually ask prospective students, to give me a better insight on him, and to allow me to put together a personalized criteria for him while attending my school. Some of the questions I asked him were:
1. How long have you been
bass fishing?
2. What your favorite types
of baits that you mostly use?
3. What kind of equipment he
used?
4. What he expects to learn
from my school?
5. What his goals were
concerning his future in bass fishing?
6. How much understanding he
had concerning bass habits, Etc.......
