I have often thought about this topic.
I would get the weight certified, lots of pictures and a good sports agent and lawyer. I am convinced that the next world record is a
$5M fish.
Endorsements for every piece of gear you used to catch the fish and I don't mean free stuff. I'm talking money. Rod, reel, line, waders, swivels, clip, down to what underware you were wearing. If it were a boat fish you are talking boat, motor, GPS, fishfinder, compass, rod holders, rocket launchers, fuel/water separators every friggin' thing on the boat. A good sports agent would know how to leverage this feat.
Then there would be the sport show tour. Articles written either by you or thru a ghost writter. The list goes on....
