KATY, Texas – With springtime temps on the rise and outdoor fun ranking higher on the to-do list, Academy Sports + Outdoors is your one-stop destination for everything you need to get outside for less this season. Whether the fun includes local waterway fishing with the family, stocking up the boat for the spring bite or a weekend camping trip, one of Academy’s 250+ locations has what you need to have outdoor fun at prices everyone can afford on the best gear.
The new lineup from Academy’s exclusive Magellan Outdoors brand includes apparel for men and women that is packed with technical features that won’t break the bank. Cast your line in the water on a warm day while wearing the Magellan Outdoors™ Women's Falcon Lake 5" Shorty Short and let the moisture-wicking polyester mechanical stretch twill fabric keep you comfy as you wait for the fish to bite. Thanks to the UPF 20+ sun protection, you'll stay protected from harmful UV rays, too. The Magellan Outdoors Women's Laguna Madre Shirts are a go-to lightweight fishing shirt for warm weather activities. The shirts provide protection from the sun’s harmful rays with UPF 20+ protection and the sturdy nylon construction includes moisture-wicking technology that keeps you cool and dry for all day comfort on the water or the beach. Available in both short and long sleeve options.
The new Men’s Overcast Hybrid Fishing Shorts from Magellan Outdoors are the ultimate companion on the water. These new 4-pocket shorts feature a soft breathable fabric with Flex Technology for a wide range of motion. Topped with a water-repellent finish to keep you dry throughout the day, and UPF 30+ sun protection, these shorts are at home on the water. Pair them with the Magellan Outdoors Men's Aransas Pass Mini Check Short Sleeve Shirt for a comfortable day spent in search of that prize catch. You'll also be protected from the harsh sun thanks to the shirt's moisture-wicking and UPF technologies, and integrated ventilation will keep you pleasantly cool through every cast.
In addition to apparel, Academy Sports + Outdoors has a wide variety of gear to help you get on the water and catch fish. The new H2O Xpress Mettle Spinning Reel has a gear ratio that provides fast retrievals, while the multidisc drag design offers control of the line. The spool and handle are made from anodized aluminum for repeated use. The H2O Xpress Premier Spinning Rod is the perfect complement to the Mettle Spinning reel for a winning fishing combination. The rod features a strong, lightweight graphite blank with a cork handle, while the stainless-steel line guides have ceramic inserts for smooth line movement.
