“NITRO is dedicated to providing anglers with pro-level fishing platforms to perform at the highest levels and the TXTT gives them an opportunity to showcase these high-performance products,” said TXTT Tournament Director Mike Hastings. “Many of our anglers fish out of a NITRO boat and will enjoy the opportunity to pad their tournament winnings with NITRO’s contingency program. We are pleased to welcome NITRO into the TXTT family.”

The TXTT 2018 season consists of four regular-season events followed by a championship. First-place finishers of two regular-season events will be awarded a brand new fully rigged NITRO Z18. If the winning angler fished from an approved NITRO boat and is part of the NITRO Tournament Rewards program, the NITRO Z18 will be upgraded to a NITRO Z19. Additional payouts extend through 50^th place, with second through 30^th receiving a $250 cash bonus and 31^st through 50^threceiving $125.

“We are excited to be a part of the TXTT,” said Rick Emmitt, Marketing Manager – Angler Programs/Pro Staff. “TXTT events are run by veteran industry professionals and have a reputation for putting together fun and exciting experiences for their competitors. TXTT features some of the best anglers from Texas and surrounding states and we are looking forward to showing our product to them in 2018.”
