Megabass announced that it's expanded its deal with former Bassmaster Classic and Forrest Wood Cup champion to Luke Clausen to include rods as well as baits.
“It’s nice to sign with a company that wants to perfect the design of rods, not only in the U.S., but worldwide,” he said. "Megabass rods already are exceptional in both quality and function, but I am excited to offer them hands-on feedback to further distance them from the competitors.”
Said Megabass USA president Yuskei Murayama: “Luke is a phenomenal angler, and we are very excited that he chose to use Megabass rods this season. In addition to providing invaluable feedback on the water, Luke will participate closely in design and development, helping to guide the application of Megabass's industry-leading innovation and technology to the unique needs of the American angler.”
Clausen flipped with the Orochi FX 711X4 rod at the recent Okeechobee FLW Tour Open.
"What impressed me is how effortlessly I could use a 7'11" rod all day. In the past, I would have opted for a shorter, easier-to handle-rod, but this ultra-light, yet incredibly strong rod was exceptional.”
