Tex Grissom—Owner, Tex’s Tackle
“I get a tremendous response from my ad. People call me all the time. It’s also nice to get my clients’ photos in the paper. I mail them copies, they see their photo in the paper, and it makes them feel special. That helps my return business.”
Capt. Mark Dickson—Shallow Minded Guide Fishing
“When making business decisions regarding advertising, it is critical to target the right audience. Even before I started advertising in Fisherman’s Post, I read it cover to cover.”
