I had never heard of college bass fishing before my high school son told me about it. He's targeting A&M, but Auburn is also on his list. Basically he would enjoy schools where a lot of students like to hunt and fish.
Sort of curious about the recruiting aspect of this. Does the Bass Fishing coach watch hours of film on a person’s casting technique? Do they follow them to the lake and watch them fish? For an official visit, do they take them fishing? So many questions.
And what about the NIL?

AU is purely club ran by the student anglers. No coach. No NIL. They are very active in attracting partnerships/sponsors within the industry to help offset the cost of fishing/traveling along with donations.
I think University of Montevallo and some of the other colleges who do well are doing something in the form of partial scholarships for anglers and have a coach in a more formal team sport way (not sure that is all accurate, but I think I remember reading it somewhere).
