Fishing Jersey

Thanks

[SudburyBasser]

Sorry, that doesn't even make sense....but then..

Hootie

 

I was apparently having a bad day. I apologize to the kid and if he wants to wear a jersey then more power to him.

[bmlum415]

Haha I found the jersey I want now, thank you for the suggestion

[Lunker7]

Why would he look silly? I would wear a jersey that had BPS, Shimano, Zoom, YoZuri, Power Pro, and other stuff that I use on it. Who cares? Its what I like, and everyone else can blow off! What is the company gonna do? Complain about free advertising? Don't listen to these fools kid, do what you want, fish naked if you want to, whatever makes you happy.

I completely agree. I wear fishing jerseys almost every time I go fishing. Hell, I don't even fish tournaments! I just think that they're very comfortable. (Plus, they make you look pretty sweet.)

 

PS. Why would any company in its right mind complain about free advertising?

[YoungProdigy19]

Yes you can do that. Sponsors love being represented by people that they don't sponsor it shows drive. Thats a great way to get sponsored.

I was on a college fishing team and we had jerseys that had plenty of sponsors. They were pretty cool. Now that I am graduated sometimes I will still wear the jersey when im fishing just cause its the most comfortable thing to wear. Its crazy light weight, if it rains it dries in like 5 minutes. Its pretty Rad. If I were to put a sponsor on a jersey now I would ask local places as you said. Post a picture when you get it!

So, is it legal or not to have a Bass jersey made that contains logos of companies you admire? 

[volzfan59]

I have a question about jerseys. I'm thinking about getting one with the B.A.S.S. logo on it. I'm still holding out hope to fish the opens as a co-angler some day and I know that you have to have their logo on your jersey. I'm a Mason and a Shriner, therefore I want to put those logos on my jersey.

 

Here's my question, where, or how, do I find digital files with logos? I freely admit that I'm a dinosaur at this stuff. Everywhere I look at jerseys, or even moisture wicking custom t-shirts, they say that they need "digital files" of the logos.

 

Thanks for any help.

Sometimes I wear a Kevin Durant jersey to pick-up games, if my teams loses, I just join the winning team.

Precisely why I'm coming down on this. Looking silly at 41, my age, no one cares. Looking silly at 15...another story.

Yeah, well at 42, when I’m fishing, I look silly at least 80% of the time.

I used to wear a TDF best climber polka dot cycling jersey on our hilliest training rides, of course back then I weighed 140 lbs and could actually back it up, Now I'm looking for a Subway® or Krispy Kreme® jersey.

Why do Masons and Shriners wear B A S S jerseys?

If you fish in a B.A.S.S. tournament, as a Angler or Co, you have to wear their logo to go across the stage. Especially on the last day. If you don't have it screen printed on your jersey, they will give you a sticker.

 

As to the Masonic and Shriner's logo, I don't have to wear them. I'm a proud member of both organizations. To be a Mason, you have to ask a Mason, 2B1-Ask1. If that helps start the conversation, I'm good with it. If me wearing the Shriner's logo causes someone to donate to help disabled children, or children injured in a fire, again, I'm good with it. Much like St. Jude's Hospital, no child's family has to pay a cent to use a Shriners Hospital, including meals, transportation to and from. All done through donations and paper sales. I hope that clears it up.

I had one made for my brother and me. Just for fun. Here is what I had made.

I used to fish a trail and these guys had Keystone Light Jerseys. It was awesome, and they were GOOD!

If someone asks you if you are sponsored tell them the truth, you love the product and share your support of it on your back. This stuff gets so far out of balance.

I agree. I love my products and my jersey.

This is the winner !

@Harold Scoggins that's the best??

I fish and am sponsored by the Crappie Psychic LLC in Louisiana but i also use Salters jiggin poles and know the owner well. So i am only wearing my jersey the way the sponsor made with salters logo on a sleeve. With permission.

I don't have a jersey but I will not go fishing without wearing my palegic or after long-sleeved sun shirts... same material as the jerseys

[NYWayfarer]

I am sure the companies on the jersey will appreciate the free advertising. How many of us walk around with a Strike King or other bait, tackle, rod or reel companies ball cap? Same free advertising.

Bingo!

 

I wore a Budweiser T-shirt to school in junior high.

I came in late to this party so I really don't care who puts what on a fishing jersey.  If you're willing to be a walking billboard for free - good for you - I'm not a big fan of that so I don't.  I own a few SPF 50 fishing hoodies and I wish they didn't have any logos at all.  Now, referring to the previous post - Volzfan 59 - check with your state grand lodge - I don't know about Tennessee, but in Missouri, the grand lodge won't let a lodge put  the Masonic square & compasses logo on a boys or girls baseball or softball team shirt that is sponsored by the lodge,  so I'm pretty sure that putting the Masonic square & compasses on your fishing jersey is a bad idea - in Missouri.  Your state grand lodge may have a different opinion, but I'd check first prior to putting it on a jersey.  Probably no issue wearing a Masonic pin or two on the jersey, I don't know.  I do know that I'm a Mason and I wouldn't do it.  I'd get an informed opinion from someone in your grand lodge prior to purchasing the jersey.

Masonic grand lodges can get pretty pissy about where they put and don't put their logo.  So I've heard - or at least that is what I heard when I was in charge of purchasing the T-shirts of boys & girls teams that my lodge sponsored.

I buy plain hoodies and have my elementary aged grandkids design "grandpa's fishing team" jerseys with permanent markers.  They usually spark a conversation at the loading ramp...

I dont see anything wrong with it. You can go out and buy tshirts and stickers for every company out there... even here. Now it wont be officially licensed  but that doesn't stop the guy selling NFL jerseys at 25% the cost on ebay.

Thought this thread was about fishing in New Jersey.
