April, 5th, 2021 - Chicago, IL - Since getting its own start on a social platform, Catch Co. has grown to become one of the biggest names in fishing with popular brands like Mystery Tackle Box and e-commerce site Karl’s Bait & Tackle. Over 250,000 YouTube subscribers regularly enjoy incredible fishing moments through the company’s content like the “Unchartered’ series, and tips and tricks videos, racking up over 100 million views in the past few years.
Catch Co. has been a passionate supporter of independent YouTube content creators since its 2012 launch and many of the company’s ambassadors have gone on to garner millions of followers and build their own powerful brands. This summer, Catch Co. is looking to identify the next great fishing fishing content creator through its “On the Line” Competition.
Over the course of five weeks this summer, 10 contestants will complete a broad range of challenges and compete for the title of “On the Line Champion”. That winner will reel in over $20,000 in cash and prizes, including a new fishing boat and a 12-month influencer contract with Catch Co. The brand has teamed up with some of the hottest names in fishing to bring this competition to life, including Lowe Boats, AFTCO Apparel, and Googan Squad.
How to Submit an Entry for “On the Line”
Starting today, creators with at least 500 subscribers on YouTube can submit an application for one of the 10 competition spots. When the contest kicks off this summer, contestants will film and publish one video each week based on a unique and rotating challenge. Who progresses and who is eliminated will be decided by an online audience vote and ratings from a panel of judges, including pro angler Brian Latimer, prominent YouTube creator and Googan Squad member LOJO, and Catch Co. Founder & CEO Ross Gordon.
The Grand Prize winner will receive a package worth more than $20,000, including $5,000 in cash, new Lowe Jon Boat, and a 12-month contract to become a YouTube Content Creator with Catch Co.
