SHELBYVILLE, Ind. – River Rat Tackle announced this week an agreement to sponsor the Murray State University bass fishing team for the 2013 College Fishing season.

“The River Rat Tackle product lineup has already put a lot of fish in the boat for a few of our members, which is why we are very excited about our sponsorship,” said team president Therron Shaw. “With the help of their custom baits like the Rat Tail Worm 10.5 and the Ledge Monster 12.5, we know this sponsorship will give us a competitive edge going into the 2013 season.”

River Rat is now also accepting applications for its 2013 pro staff positions. For more information on how to join the River Rat Tackle team, visit the River Rat Tackle website at www.riverrattackle.com.
