Catching Sharks With Kids.


Matched with some of the best fishing products on the market today, add a little fun, water, and a pier and area youth we came up with a reel outdoors adventure:

Catching Sharks With Kids.

By Gary Anderson

We are a group of dedicated anglers, so dedicated we formed a company, The Island Angler Inc., to promote mentoring, angling, stewardship, responsibility and self-awareness through helping out those around you on a mission of showing ‘one hand washes the other’ through the actions of Positive Mentoring through Fishing. We are in need of a sponsor or sponsors who could provide us with enough seed money to produce a fishing based reality television show sizzle reel for a five-minute trailer, to be viewed by all the networks, as well Comcast. We have a major television production company committed to our task, with a crew on stand-by, when we raise our needed finances.

This investment is of a multi-fold paramount exploration into the introduction of either old products needed to be re-born or new products promotion, in that it pushes your product out through the major networks as a sizzle reel trailer. It would running continuously on all of my sites and affiliated Charter Captain sites, as well, our email listings and press-releases as a new event till picked up, to then be converted to an advertisement for the show and lastly, when production is complete on the sizzler reel for distribution. This production also introduces our program of Positive Mentoring through Fishing, our website The Island Anglers and its affiliates along with my own Inshore Florida, which is partnered with Anglers Legacy. All of the sites here a recognized either through the FWC or in part with our states initiative of Florida’s mentoring programs, as we are on a mission to make all anglers responsible individuals to our marine ecosystems, especially our youth, disadvantaged and those with handicaps.

‘The Island Anglers’ are a group of dedicated anglers, so dedicated we formed a company, The Island Angler Inc., to promote mentoring, angling, stewardship, responsibility and self-awareness through helping out those around you on a mission of showing ‘one hand washes the other’ through the actions of Positive Mentoring through Fishing. The Island Anglers website represents all of us who care for the environment while showing direction to the youth of today for a greater tomorrow, ensuring the best there is to offer for years to come. Stories, articles and such are all about fishing the city pier located in Venice, Florida.

From the website our numbers grew, visitors from around the worldview the site for constantly changing information on the happenings of the pier, as well did the number of youth involvement and sense of accomplishment of self. Anglers catches, stories and photographs of our youth in action helping each other out; mentoring themselves as well as those around them through deeds in offering advice to actual endeavors of stepping up to the plate, when needed. An example of this would be of one of The Island Anglers members saving a diver life last year as he was fishing from the pier. Taking his own life out of the picture Phillip Hansen jumped twenty feet to the water below the boards of the pier swimming to the aid of a diver in distress. Later after the event, Phillip said, “had I not learned the values and appreciation of what I have learned by fishing with mentors such as Jaime Fuentes, Mike Cavallo, Mr. Anderson along with my fellow Island Anglers, she might still be out there drowning. My mom’s skills as a diving instructor and a loving parent told me it was the right thing to do, so I jumped in.”

The Island Anglers, ranging in age from 12 up and are teamed up with area professionals in a search of an investor or individual to pitch out ten to twelve thousand dollars to become the Sponsor of a Reality TV First; Real kids, Catching Real Sharks off of a Real Pier. A Sponsor to back a sizzle reel for distribution to all the major networks, as a trailer and then, like fishing, we will see who bites.

You as a Sponsor would be investing in the philosophy of “Positive Mentoring through Fishing.” No actors here but some real characters in kids helping kids while older youth and adults pitch in while helping out, maintaining posture and catching some really big fish! With your help, The Island Anglers, are in need of aid to produce the first ever reality television show with real kids, catching real sharks, on a real pier in southwest Florida. Mentoring in the raw! Real baits with large rigs on gigantic reels hooking big sharks with kids half their size. Reality TV where it should be; in the real world, on a real mission to enhance the capacity of Florida’s citizens, visitors and those of our children alike to serve their responsibilities as Stewards to our Florida marine ecosystems through training-education-technical assistance-applied research and a public service with A Faith-based Community Initiative of mentoring!
