Eagle Claw Trokar to Continue Sponsorship of Collegiate Bass Fishing Series
San Antonio, TX (June 10, 2024) – Eagle Claw Trokar and the Association of Collegiate Anglers are proud to announce their continued partnership with the Collegiate Bass Fishing Series for the 2024 season. The partnership will include extensive promotion of the complete lineup of Eagle Claw Trokar products, as well as continued support of collegiate anglers.
“We’ve always felt privileged to be able to support collegiate anglers along with the Association of Collegiate Anglers. We’re excited this year to be able to do that more efficiently and easier than ever with a brand-new eCommerce website,” said Chad Hamilton, Marketing Manager at Eagle Claw.
Trokar was developed from Eagle Claw Fishing Tackle Co’s mission to create a superior hook. Their engineers designed a new definition of sharpness, a hook with a geometric triangular point to penetrate faster and easier. They honed all three edges to surgical sharpness, resulting in a hook that penetrates twice as fast and dramatically improves strike-to-hook-up ratios. Once the sharpness was dialed in, they called in their team of pro-fisherman to put these hooks to the test. With their input, the Trokar hook was perfected. The use of higher carbon, cold forged steel and a bolstered shank design helped to add strength during aggressive hooksets. That steel was then put through a unique heat treating process that adds impact resistance and just the right amount of flex to resist breaking when fighting to get your fish in the boat.
“2024 is going to be a great season for the Association of Collegiate Anglers, and the student anglers that compete in our events,” said Kyle Curry, ACA Managing Director. “This continued partnership with Eagle Claw Trokar will help to support these college anglers as they compete nationwide throughout the year.”
