Mustad Earns BPT Win, Launches Bass Pro Discount

Miami, FL – In the second stage of Major League Fishing’s Bass Pro Tour, Mustad Pro Jacob Powroznik took a commanding lead on the final day and earned his second BPT victory on Florida’s Lake Okeechobee. Powroznik’s win is the third by a Mustad pro in the first two years of one of bass fishing’s pinnacle tournament trails. The victory comes at a perfect time for anglers as Mustad announces additional support for MLF fans via a new 20% discount program on bass-specific product with Bass Pro Shops and Cabelas.

Riddled with emotion, Powroznik spent the final moments of the tournament in the exact location of his last fishing outing with his late father. Powroznik shared his thoughts with BassFan editor John Johnson:

“You’ve just got to keep your head down and keep grinding because you never know. I’ve fished here a bunch of times going back to 2003 and I’ve had some really good finishes and some really bad ones. (Today) was a lot of fun for a while and I know my dad was sitting right there with me all day.”

Powroznik relied on a 6/0 Mustad Grip-Pin Hook (38101NP) to ensure a great hook-up ratio as he swam a Junebug-colored worm around bedding bass on Okeechobee’s eel grass flats.

Anglers can now purchase Powroznik’s hook and the rest of Mustad’s bass fishing tackle at 20% off via a newly launched program with Bass Pro Shops and Cabelas. Purchasing the discounted gear requires anglers to visit the links below which have all in-stock Mustad bass products ready for purchase with the discount pre-applied.
