Fishing Gloves + Fishing Pro = A Natural Partnership
ROCK FISH™ gloves by Cordova Safety Products is excited to announce its sponsorship of pro-angler and Mid-South native, Jimmy Washam.
Washam has been an avid fisherman for years and the most recent winner of the Toyota Series – Central in Guntersville, Ala., with a weight of 58-5 pounds over a 3-day event. The ROCK FISH-Washam partnership just makes sense.
“As an avid sportsman, I demand gloves that offer protection from a number of elements,” says Washam. “From sun protection in a boat to dry warmth in a duck blind, ROCK FISH gloves have been my choice for the best in quality, functionality, and price. The opportunity to join a team that builds a product I truly believe in is something very special.”
Cordova Safety Products created the ROCK FISH glove line in 2018 in response to a need from a big box retailer for a sport fishing glove that was functional, attractive, and affordable. Being in the glove business, Cordova accepted the challenge and the line was born. The ROCK FISH name pays homage to its home base, Memphis, Tenn., Home of Rock ‘n Roll.
Dave Kuehneman, Vice-President of Consumer Sales & Marketing at Cordova Safety Products, says, “Cordova is excited to partner with Jimmy Washam, a fast-rising star on the Major League Fishing Pro circuit. Our ROCK FISH gloves were developed for both the Pro and the weekend angler to provide superior hand protection and improved grip and dexterity. We were thrilled to hear how much Jimmy liked our gloves and wanted to lend our support to him as he quickly moves up the ranks in professional fishing.”
Next up for Jimmy Washam is the Major League Fishing Pro Circuit event at Smith Lake, which takes place March 11-14 in Cullman, Ala.
