NORMAN, Okla. (February 14, 2012) —Evinrude is set to begin its sponsorship of the newest bass fishing tournament trail to hit the state of Texas. The new Texas Team Trail claims to have the highest team payouts in the state. Set to begin on Sam Rayburn Lake in March 2012, the trail includes a notable lineup of sponsors.
“The support of Evinrude is extremely important to the Texas Team Trail,” said Mike Hastings, Tournament Director. “Evinrude truly understands the importance of creating a tournament trail that benefits any angler. We’re excited to have them as part of the team and look forward to sharing a world of opportunities for anglers fishing the Texas Team Trail.”
The tournament circuit, designed exclusively for team competition, will begin March 10th, 2012, and will include a total of four qualifying events, plus a year-end Championship. The Texas Team Trail website is already accepting registrations for all events online. The website offers plenty of detail on the circuit, including official rules, tournament structure, payout and incentives.
“This is a tremendous chance for anglers to test their merit against some of the best fishing waters in Texas,” said, Chris Berg, Director of Marketing for BRP's Evinrude Outboard Engine Division. “It’s just the kind of environment that helps showcase the power and performance of Evinrude E-TEC, and why nothing enhances your experience on the water like an Evinrude E-TEC. We’re excited to help host such a significant series of events.”
