Now available, Tamer™ Softshell Jacket & Bib fishing suit is built for multispecies fishing in cooler temperatures
MUSKEGON, MI – Designed specifically to deliver discerning multispecies anglers with a functional and affordable weather-resistant fishing apparel option for cooler to cold days, the 2023 Whitewater® Tamer™ Softshell Jacket & Bib is unmatched when it comes to staying dry, warm, mobile, and flexible. Whether you’re chasing early- or late-season bass, walleyes, steelhead/salmon, muskies, saltwater species or anything that bites, the Whitewater Tamer is built for the task.
Put through-the-paces with the NEXT BITE staff and winning FLW, AIM, and MLF tournament walleye anglers (Gary Parsons, Chase Parsons, Jason Przekurat, Tommy Kemos, and Korey Sprengel), as well as Matt and Jim Schiefelbein; steelhead/salmon guides; notable muskie anglers; and B.A.S.S. Elite Pro, Jay Przekurat, Whitewater’s 2023 Whitewater Tamer Softshell Jacket & Bib is designed top-to-bottom to play well in cool to cold weather fishing situations.
NEXUS Outdoors president and product design advisor, Aaron Ambur, remarks: “There’s been a lack of well-designed and rugged fishing apparel for cooler to cold, windy, and wet days whether you’re fishing early- or late-season bass, chasing walleyes, or just out spring or fall fishing. To date, no company has offered the balanced protection and warmth into garments without constricting the highly mobile and athletic movements of an active fisherman. The Whitewater Tamer Softshell Jacket & Bib delivers the perfect balance like no other suit to date, period.”
Winning B.A.S.S. Elite pro, Jay Przekurat, offers: “For bass fishing in cooler to cold conditions this is my go-to suit. The range-of-movement is outstanding for standing on the deck and fishing as hard as I do. It’s not bulky or heavy and still windproof, repels wave spray and rain, and has a grid fleece lining to keep me warm on tournament days, from dark and cold early mornings through run and gunning at high speed from spot-to-spot throughout the day on big waters.”
Jay’s father, winning walleye pro, Jason Przekurat adds that the Whitewater® Tamer™ Softshell Jacket & Bib makes a great under-layer to the Whitewater Great Lakes Jacket & Bib for added warmth for fishing on-the-ice, midwinter to early-spring open-water river fishing, and anytime when temperatures fall – spring, fall, or winter.
“I like to layer the two systems, especially when I’m fishing on the Great Lakes,” notes the elder Przekurat. “It’s really the ultimate system for big-water fishing in cold, wet, and windy conditions. I’ve never worn anything like it. We spent a great deal of time running through prototypes until we got each suit exactly right. When you’re fishing tournaments like Jay and I are, you can’t worry about the elements, but that’s a problem with some of the apparel out there. You still must fish, and we can do that with Whitewater.”
