Exclamation Help a handicapped angler live his dream!

Hi, my name is Roy Randolph and I’m a paraplegic confined to a wheelchair, with a passion for the sport of bass fishing tournaments and I have created a web site that I’d like you to look at. www.fishingpixels.com “Help a handicapped angler live his dream!”

Now there has to be few Michigan readers here that can vouch for me this is not a joke or hoax and I’m not asking for a handout I have a legitimate method for the fishing industry to reach more people.

I think this would be a great thing for the tackle companies that spend time here and I hope you will take a look.

Thank you for your time

Roy Randolph

Don’t we all wish we had a rich daddy! Unfortunately the cost for my standard $1,000 chair comes out of my pocket.

But you would be surprised at how many disabled anglers there are out there.

I had a buddy who was confined to a wheel chair and he didnt let it slow him down one bit. He bought one of the Argo type six wheelers and put a trolling motor on it and used it in the creeks and rivers. He once got stuck on some logs in the middle of a creek out in the middle of nowhere. He said the water had been rising pretty good so he decided to go to sleep and wait for it to come up and float him out.

Exclamation Want to help?

I’m trying to get people that don’t have a website they need to promote but still want to help in some small way to contact bassfan and get them to do a story on my website.
http://www.bassfan.com/feedback_form.asp

So if you could take a minute to fill out the feed back form on the bassfan site and ask them to help this good cause I would greatly appreciate it!

One HELLUVA idea there roy. I'll do my part and see if I can spread the word for ya. Makes me think about the guy cant recall his name that basscenter did a part on that had been handicapped from birth and he was doing his best to fish the circut. Now I dont want to get all mushy here but it makes you think how blessed most of us are to have the use of all our functions. That story really choked me up. While I'm on the subject if there is anyone in my area that is less fortunate to be handicapped and wants a fishing trip give me a holler. I wopuld be more than happy to take someone out.

Exclamation Bass Fan Radio

Had a long talk with Terry Brown of Bass Fan Radio today and we did a short interview about fishingpixels.com we covered some of the sites features and advantages.
http://www.fishingpixels.com/about.html

But the number one thing, it should ease the apprehension some potential buyers have whether or not this is a legitimate cause and program.

I also have a local News station wanting to do a story as well

This should drive a bunch of people to the site~! Visitors as well as companies

So if you've been waiting to buy pixels, now’s the time!

So please check it out!
