Abu Garcia® Pro Roster Expands to 31 for 2019
Legendary brand Abu Garcia has announced that it has expanded is professional bass pro roster to 31 anglers for 2019. The pros will represent Abu Garcia throughout the 2019 season on various tournament trails including the Bassmaster Elite Series®, Fishing League Worldwide® Tour (FLW), and the Major League Fishing® (MLF) Bass Pro Tour.
The anglers on the team’s roster include some of the top names in bass fishing today. Each angler will be sponsored by Abu Garcia for the 2019 season and will represent combinations of the brand’s rods and reels. They will also test and evaluate products and appear at trade shows and events throughout the year.
“Not many brands have the luxury of being able to tap into a such a dynamic pro staff to help drive their product innovation. We believe in innovation and you can see it in our range of new products like the Revo® Rocket low profile reel with a 10.1:1 gear ratio, and the Ike Series rods and reels with features designed by the iconic Mike Iaconelli,” said Jon Schlosser, VP Marketing for Abu Garcia.
Schlosser goes on to add, “Abu Garcia is committed to supporting bass tournament fishing and is excited to partner with this incredible group of elite pro bass anglers for 2019. We wish them all great success on their respective tours this year.”
The Abu Garcia pro bass anglers will be competing at events throughout the country from January through September. For more information on Abu Garcia and its pro anglers, visit www.abugarcia.com, or follow Abu Garcia on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
