    My lifelong passion for the outdoors has turned me into an avid fisherman. I have been very fortunate to grow up on one of the best lakes in the country. I am blessed to have a dad who taught me about the outdoors and introduced me to fishing as a child. God has given me this opportunity to pursue this dream and do what I love for a living. I have the best family support system. My parents have always been there for me to assure that I had the opportunities to do what I wanted for a living. I live in Benton, Ky with my wife Brittany, who is my best friend, and 100% behind the choices I make. We have two beautiful children, Brynn and Brady, who are our world. I can’t begin to thank my family enough for all their support. 

    I love to compete. The competition is what drives you as an angler. I am learning new things every day as each day on the water is different. Never take your time on the water for granted. Always remember the most important things in life are not things. Faith, Family, & Friends. Chase your dreams!

    God Bless,

    Brandon

    BIO

    Married: Holly

    Children: Brock

    Education:BS-Agri-business, Arkansas Tech University 3.17 GPA

    Biography: I was born and raised on a farm in NW Arkansas, close to Beaver Lake. There were three things that my life revolved around growing up on the farm: hard work, athletics, and the great outdoors. My father taught me at a very young age that the only way you can get what you want out of life is to work hard and be dedicated to what you have committed yourself to doing. I have tried to uphold these values throughout my life. In high school I was selected as an all-state player in both football and baseball. In college I earned the title as an all-conference defensive lineman.

    Although I was involved in athletics my whole life, my true dream was to be a full-time professional fisherman. I knew once I graduated college I had to be successful at work in order to be able to afford to fish tournaments. I started with Tyson Foods, Inc. in May of 1993, 2 days following college graduation. I was promoted quickly through the management ranks and in April of 2000 I was promoted to the position of plant manager at the Randall Road processing facility. At 28, I was the youngest plant manager that Tyson Foods had at that time. During my last 6 years with Tyson Foods, Inc. I managed 500 employees in a fast-paced, highly-productive processing environment with a $31 million annual budget.

    Through hard work, disciplined investing, and with the encouragement from an extremely supportive wife I left my job with Tyson Foods in February of 2006 to pursue my true dream and ultimate career goal of being a full-time professional fisherman. I have been truly blessed in life and I plan on carrying on these same values of hard work and dedication in my fishing career that have enabled me to be so successful in my previous endeavors.

  • Mark Rose

     Rose Outdoors is the home of professional bass angler Mark Rose. Mark is known for his ledge fishing knowledge and is a 6 time winner in FLW competition.

    Rose is considered as one of the veterans of the FLW Tour. He won his first Tour event and dominated the field at Pickwick Lake, winning by more than 5 pounds. Throughout the years, Rose has amassed a total of over $1.5 million in earnings and has finished in the top-10 over 30 times. 2010 and 2011 were banner years for Rose as he finished third in the Angler of the Year race consecutively. 2011 also marked a career-high third-place finish at the Forrest Wood Cup.

    Rose is known as structure fishing master and an electronics aficionado, harboring several large GPS and sonar units on the front deck of his boat. Rose is also known for his love of fishing crankbaits on the Tennessee and Mississippi River systems – thus prompting on-stage references to Rose being a “river rat”. He believes that his versatility as an angler is one of his greatest strengths. As a former centerfielder for the Arkansas State University baseball team, Rose loves watching baseball when he’s not fishing. He also enjoys hunting and spending time with his daughters.
