MONTGOMERY, Ala. (Thursday, Oct. 25, 2012) - Eco Pro Tungsten, an Anglers Select company and leading supplier of premium fishing tackle, and "Hank Parker's Outdoor Magazine," a top-rated fishing show hosted by outdoor legend Hank Parker, announced a two-year sponsorship agreement, making Eco Pro the show's exclusive fishing weight sponsor.
"The Eco Pro Tungsten team is thrilled to align with Hank Parker and his fishing show," said Brian Wagenhoffer, president of Eco Pro Tungsten. "Hank is a respected and knowledgeable angler who has the ability to show anglers how using our products can help them catch more fish and convey the eco friendly benefits of our products."
"For 2013, anglers will find Eco Pro Hank Parker signature series Diamond Pegs and Pro Wacky Weights on store shelves. Hank's knowledge helped us develop quality products."
Eco Pro will have category exclusivity on "Hank Parker's Outdoor Magazine," to include product presence in the show which airs on NBC Sports Outdoors and Pursuit Channel along with Eco Pro product how-to tips, social media integration, and more.
"I was sold the first time I use Eco Pro Tungsten products," Parker said. "The company has the largest selection and highest quality of tungsten products on the market. Eco Pro Tungsten weights have a smaller profile. That means I can cast farther, experience fewer snags and catch more fish.
"And, their products are free of lead which means nothing but good things for the environment. I am excited to share the Eco Pro story with my fans."
The Powell Group, marketing and communications agency of record for Parker's fishing and hunting initiatives, brokered the sponsorship agreement.
