Matheson will take the reigns of the newly formed company effective July 1and immediately begin work to develop the infrastructure AIM requires to operate Walleye tournaments as early as the 2009 season.
Matheson believes the key component to the future success of AIM is ” the unique blend of it’s personalities and industry experience that will give AIM the cutting edge insight needed for success as we grow. This company is similar to an employee-owned company and as such the input, passion and experience each investor brings to the mix will help it create opportunity for the company itself and the industry as a whole.”
Pat Neu, AIM Chairman of the Board, commented on Matheson’s appointment to the CEO/President position “I have known Scott for 30 years and during that time I have found him to be one of the most knowledgeable and insightful businessmen in the Outdoor Industry. Scott will bring the mix of business knowledge and love for the sport that AIM will need to succeed. He also brings a complete understanding of Walleye tournament fishing, having been a very successful tournament angler himself in the early 90’s on the Master’s Walleye Circuit”.

According to Neu, the experience gained during his career in our industry will be invaluable as our new CEO takes his place in the top position at AIM. Added to Scott’s industry experience is his genuine passion for the outdoors, a combination that will serve AIM well as the business grows.
