Lew's announced today that it's added 2013 Bassmaster Classic champion Cliff Pace to its pro staff. Pace, who recently completed a two-year run with Shimano, returns to top-level competition at the Classic after sitting out 2014 due to injuries suffered in a fall from a tree stand.
"Cliff finishes every tournament just like he starts it – working hard and making necessary adjustments right up until the last cast," said Lew's CEO Lynn Reeves. "He epitomizes what the Lew's brand is all about in delivering a reliable, consistent performance day in and day out. Cliff is a strong addition to our team and we're proud to welcome him aboard."
The Hartwell event will be Pace's sixth Classic appearance. In it he joins four other Team Lew's anglers: Stephen Browning, Jason Christie, Mark Davis and Kevin Short.
