Bass Boat Technologies announced today that FLW Tour anglers Randall Tharp and Mark Rose have joined the company's pro staff for the 2013 season.
“I am very proud to have two of the top anglers in the world to represent the company," said company CEO Van Foster, Jr. "Both share the same quality and stringent product values and I look forward to their input in the research and development of new products.”
Bass Boat Technologies is a new company that specializes in the design of electronics mounting systems for bass boats, which allow for single- or dual-mount systems while integrating an anti-vibration system.
“I’ve known Van for several years and no matter what the problem is, he always seems to come up with a solution,” Tharp said. “This is the second season that I have run his electronics mounts on my boat and they are perfect. The screen or screens are directly in front of you and are 100 percent visible without having to look through or around the steering wheel. The mounting system allows you to access all buttons without removing your hands from the steering wheel. The mounting systems are very sturdy and has zero vibration in big water."
Rose added, “I was hooked the first time I saw one of Bass Boat Technologies' mounting systems. Then when I got to know Van and saw his commitment to perfection, I wanted to get more involved with this company. The dual-mount system is like a dream come true."
FLW Tour pro Mark Rose has signed a sponsorship deal with Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce. The agreement is the company's initial foray into professional fishing.
"I can't express how excited I am about this new partnership with Country Bob's and how it came about (starting about 5 years ago) – it was definitely a Godsend," Rose said. "We both share the same Christian values and the sauce is unbelievably good … on everything!"
Added Albert Malekovic, who works in sales and marketing for Country Bob's: "Being outdoorsmen ourselves, we've always wanted to convey to the outdoorsmen of the world that our All Purpose Sauce is not only great on beef, pork and chicken, but also the best compliment for fish, deer and other game. We've known of Mr. Rose's incredible fishing talent, his faith and his great sportsmanship for some time. Once we were able to meet with him and his wonderful family, we knew that Mark Rose and Rose Outdoors were the perfect partner for us and we couldn't be more proud and excited to work together."




"It's during these times that they have many quality interactions with the public, and that's just as important to us in their representation of the Lew's name."
By now, you probably really are wondering how many depth finders they need. Before you get an answer, however, consider this: During the past six years, Rose and Haynes have combined to win more than $1 million, clinch 10 tournament titles and log 32 top 10s in FLW competitions. They credit their success to their ability to catch fish offshore. And electronics are a key tool for them to find and catch fish in all that water.
