Gordon Sprouse. Director of Marketing, North America Navico, stated, “We are excited to get the opportunity to showcase our products with Bass Champs anglers. Consistently revolutionizing the sport of fishing, we are dedicated to giving the angler the most advanced opportunity possible to find and ultimately catch fish. We see a lot of those same traits with Bass Champs, and we look forward to rewarding our loyal customers in 2016!”

Lowrance will gain exposure through all facets of Bass Champs including every regular season event and the new television show featuring the top finishers of the 2015 season.
Lowrance is offering Bass Champs anglers a $250 cash bonus at every regular season team event for being the highest placed finisher running HDS-Gen 3 products (HDS12, HDS9, HDS7). At the Bass Champs Team Trail Championship, Lowrance will raise that to $1,000!
“Lowrance continues to set the bar on easy to use and effective equipment for anglers. In the 17 years that we have been running tournaments, we have seen some remarkable changes in regards to electronics and how our anglers use them for catching more fish. The HDS-GEN3 line of Lowrance is more advanced than anything thats ever been available. To be working with the leader of the pack, Lowrance, we are excited to see what our anglers bring in. Now that there is $5,000 in bonus money available for Lowrance Gen3 products, our anglers can have the best technology and win significant bonus cash.” Chad Potts, President of Bass Champs.
