Strengthening the Mission with Precision and Performance
ArmyBassAnglers (ABA), a premier coalition of active-duty and veteran anglers dedicated to supporting military service members through the sport of fishing, is proud to announce its strategic partnership with 1st Contact Tungsten, an up-and-coming veteran-owned brand specializing in high-performance tungsten fishing weights and terminal tackle. Committed to giving back, 1st Contact Tungsten donates 5% of its profits to veterans.
This collaboration unites two powerhouse brands that share a commitment to excellence, precision, and giving back to the military community. 1st Contact Tungsten’s top-tier tungsten products provide ABA anglers with superior sensitivity, durability, and environmental responsibility—essential elements for success on the water. Their slogan, “Lead Sucks,” underscores their commitment to safer, high-performance alternatives to traditional lead-based tackle.
“As a group dedicated to ‘SUPPORT. DEFEND. FISH.,’ we only align with partners who share our passion for performance and our dedication to the men and women who serve this country,” said Shawn Dalrymple CEO and Owner of ArmyBassAnglers. “1st Contact Tungsten delivers industry-leading tackle that gives our anglers the edge they need while also demonstrating a strong commitment to supporting the military and veteran communities.”
1st Contact Tungsten’s premium tungsten weights are known for their compact size, increased sensitivity, and enhanced durability, making them the go-to choice for serious anglers.
