Pro Angler Rex Johnsonbaugh
Welcome

 

I would like to thank you for taking the time to visit my site and I hope that you find everything fun and informative. Our sport today is often compared to NASCAR in the mid 1990’s. With ESPN and Versus Networks now being actively involved in the sport, its popularity has grown ten-fold and includes not only men, but women and children as well.
I started fishing competitively on the local level in 1994. Since 1994 I have been very successful, winning many tournaments and receiving Angler of the Year in 2002 & 2005 locally. In 2004, I moved into the Fishers of Men National Trail where I learned what it was like to compete on a somewhat larger scale.

In 2008, I moved into the professional ranks competing in the FLW Stren Series Northern Division, where I was now competing on the National level against the best anglers from the Northeast U.S. The next two years were a tremendous learning curve for me and in my first season on tour, I managed to finish 60th in points out of 240 professional Anglers. It was a difficult transition for me due to the level of competition. In 2010, I progressed to finish 53rd out of 260 anglers, and had it not been for an illness during one of the events, it would have most likely been considerably higher. Also in 2010, I qualified for the National Championship on Lake Wheeler, Alabama where I competed against the top 200 anglers from the entire U.S., finishing in 31st place. I have become a tour figure and now find myself very competitive at each event.
Aside from being on the water, one of my true passions is spending time with people and working with children. When on the road, I am constantly in contact with people, promoting not only myself, but my Partners as well. People will stop me many times to see the boat, take pictures and ask questions. Even on the water, during practice, people will approach me and I will always stop what I am doing and take the time to talk.

If it looks good, you will see it
If it sounds good, you will hear it
If it’s marketed right, you will buy it
But if it is real..you will feel it..
