FLW Fantasy Fishing has gained a quick following in the cluttered world of online fantasy sports by offering $1 million to anyone who can put together the best team of professional anglers in coming months. The prize is as eye-opening as the sponsors who help underwrite it � including Wal-Mart, BP and Chevrolet � showing that even niche online fantasy sports can attract major advertisers across a range of industries. "More and more marketers are looking for ways not to just slap their logo on a sports site but to engage the consumer and be integrated into the content," said Chris Russo, president of FantasyPlayers.com, an online marketing service that operates a network of roughly 110 fantasy sites. "And while this all started with football and baseball, it's really now into a whole lot of other sports." -- NY Times

I love to fish, and I love fantasy sports, but I just can't see a combo of the two being much fun.
