Indiana's Jacob Wheeler, the 2011 BFL All-American champion, will run a Fatheadz Eyewear wrap on the FLW Tour this year.
“It's tough to spend a day on the water without a good pair of sunglasses and it's almost foolish if you are a competing angler,” said Wheeler. “In this sport, you’re constantly exposed to the sun, and sunglasses are essential for two reasons – 100 percent UV protection and polarization, which improves visibility by reducing the sun's glare on the water.
"Fatheadz provides a great selection of products that meet these needs while combining style, comfort and affordability. It’s an easy decision to represent their products, and it’s a bonus to represent a nationally recognized and respected business from my hometown.”
Said Fatheadz CEO Rico Elmore: “Fatheadz is privileged to team up with such a bright, young guy who is taking the fishing world by storm. We’re looking forward to providing Wheeler with a bunch of gear to protect him while competing. We are thrilled to be a part of his 2012 sponsorship team, and hope to continue supporting him for coming seasons.”
