KastKing, the manufacturer of rods, reels, line and tackle accessories that's celebrating its 10th year in business, announced that it's signed Major League fishing competitors Skeet Reese and James Elam to its pro staff.
"Both professional anglers bring amazing talent, passion and credibility to our brand,” said Al Noraker, president of KastKing USA. “Both anglers signify the quality and technology that KastKing brings to anglers of all abilities as they strive to win at every level, whether on the bass tournament circuit or simply enjoying the sport of fishing."
Reese is one of just a few anglers who have claimed both Bassmaster Elite Series Angler of the Year and Bassmaster Classic titles.
"I’m excited to be joining the KastKing team," he said. "I love that they are a 10-year-old company that has gone against what traditional big brands have done. They have their own team of engineers developing their designs. KastKing started from scratch building great products at affordable prices."
“Speed equals efficiency. That’s where the Speed Demon reels work. You don’t waste time getting the bait back in the boat. At the end of the day, if I get in an additional 40-50 casts, it can make all the difference,” said Reese.
Elam, a former Bassmaster Elite and Open champion, will use KastKing rods and reels while competing in REDCREST 2023 in March.
“I’m excited to be on the KastKing team," he said. "I’m especially impressed at the affordability of all of the KastKing products. When bass fishing, it’s easy to have a lot of money wrapped up in just a few products, but with KastKing, you can have a lot of great assortments and combinations in your boat at an affordable price. They’ve made innovation affordable for both the bass pro and the weekend bass warrior."
