Increased Support for Collegiate Team Bass Pro Contingency Program in 2019

SAN ANTONIO, TX - Bass Pro Shops is stepping up their support of collegiate bass fishing with the Team Bass Pro Shops Collegiate Angler Contingency Program. Bass Pro Shops will be giving collegiate anglers the opportunity to apply to join Team Bass Pro field staff and be a part of the great team that Bass Pro Shops fields in fishing, hunting and the outdoors.

This program is tied directly to anglers competing in the 2019 Bass Pro Shops Collegiate Bass Fishing Series events and is growing to award gear packages at all four ACA events throughout the season! Exposure of the brand to this group of anglers is important because they will continue the legacy and traditions of the outdoors. This group is on the verge of having discretionary income and by showing support for the events they participate in we can create loyal customers as they create the next wave of future anglers.

"This is a unique opportunity for selected anglers while also providing prizes deep into the field during the upcoming season," said Wade Middleton, Director of the Association of Collegiate Anglers and President of CarecoTV. "We're excited to be working alongside Bass Pro Shops and looking for more ways to give back to college anglers competing in this Series."
