Next Gen Lithium Batteries announced that it's added veteran Bassmaster Elite Series anglers Greg Hackney and Cliff Pirch to its pro staff.
“It’s not often that a company has the opportunity to add anglers of this caliber to their pro staff,” said Next Gen president Johnson. “Greg will go down as one of the best to ever pick up a fishing rod and Pirch has had a long, successful career that began in the West. It’s an honor to partner with them.
“When we were able to sign Ish Monroe to the team, I knew it would be hard to match him, (but) these guys do. This will be Hackney’s first experience with lithium batteries, so it will be fun to work with him on that part, and I have had respect for Pirch for many years and followed his career, so it will be exciting to work with him as well.”
