PURCHASE, N.Y., March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — MTN DEW® is casting its line to usher in the 2021 fishing season by challenging DEW Nation to “Hook the Big One Golden Can Game” by catching one of fifty (50) specially marked Golden Fishing Cans in select outdoor-themed MTN DEW 12 pack cases for the chance to win epic fishing prizes and experiences, including 2021 Phoenix Bass boats and a virtual meet and greet with Pro Bass Angler Gerald Swindle. On the water, MTN DEW is giving a boost to both experienced and novice anglers by introducing DEW Lost Lure insurance by providing $25 DICK’S Sporting Goods gift cards to purchase new lures.
“Hook the Big One” deepens the MTN DEW brand’s commitment to anglers and outdoor enthusiasts by providing consumers with the game-changing charge they need to Get Out and Do, removing barriers to enjoy the great outdoors and pursue their passions all season long.
“DEW Nation lives for the days they can spend outside – and as a brand steeped in the spirit of the great outdoors, MTN DEW shares their bold thirst for adventure,” said Umi Patel, CMO, PepsiCo North Division. “Through “Hook the Big One”, we’re charging the outdoor experiences of our most dedicated fans with epic prizes and removing small barriers that prevent them from pursuing their passions and doing what they love.”
As MTN DEW fuels fans’ love for the outdoors, the brand is also backing those who serve our country and local communities with a $20,000 donation to Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, a non-profit organization dedicated to healing disabled veterans through the sport of fly fishing and the joy of the outdoors.
‘Hook the Big One Golden Can Game’
Fans can get a head start this fishing season when they reel in a Golden Fishing Can hidden inside specially marked, outdoors-themed 12 pack cases of MTN DEW in select Northeast and Midwest regions of the U.S. From March 8, 2021 – May 31, 2021 hooking one of the fifty (50) MTN DEW Golden Fishing Cans will score fans exclusive outdoor prizes and experiences, including MTN DEW branded sweatshirts, T-shirts, coolers and spinning rods.

DEW Lost Lure Insurance helps fans Get Out and Do
In time for the start of fishing season, MTN DEW is also rolling out Lost Lure Insurance to make sure that everyone who has a passion for fishing can get outside and hook the big one – no matter what.
