A Universal Love Of Bass Fishing Brings Anglers Across The Country Together To Support A Great Cause

AUSTIN, Texas - Feb. 5, 2014 - PRLog -- The world of bass fishing has no boundaries and the only borders are the ones surrounded by the lakes fished and loved by so many bass anglers.

ATX (Austin, Texas) Bass Fishing is now an official sponsor of an event hosted by a non-profit in the Boise, Idaho; The Wildland Firefighter Foundations annual Firefighter Benefit Bass Fishing Tournament.

The Firefighter Benefit Bass Fishing Tournament and Auction (Rip-N-Lips Invitational (https://www.facebook.com/RipNLipsInvitational)) is coming together to raise money for the Wildland Firefighter Foundation (http://www.wffoundation.org/) (a non-profit organization).  “The firefighter community had a tragic year last year with 37 deaths of my fellow firefighters”, said “Sam Pearcy” this year’s event organizer.  This event will be taking place at Prineville Reservoir near Bend Oregon. Their reach for support found a central Texas bass fishing clothing site, “ATX Bass Fishing”.  “I was honored to contribute to their tournament and their cause”, said “Chris Ellison”, founder of ATX Bass Fishing.   He added, “Coming from two states (Idaho and Oregon), had me initially surprised when I read their proposal.  However it covered two things in life that I have a strong admiration, respect and passion for; bass fishing and supporting great causes.”
